Advantages: Funny, witty with a serious side on occasions Disadvantages: fake laughs - they can be turned off though
...M*A*S*H is based on a Mobile Army Surgical Hospital during the Korean War. I didn't think I would like this as its quite an old series and it was first broadcast in 1972 and I didn't enter the world for some 6 years after, it never really appealed to me. However, my partner loves it, so though I would give it a try.
The first season primarily introduces you to the characters in the show from the Colonel Henry Blake to Chief Surgeon Hawkeye Pearce to Company Clerk Radar O'Reilly.
A valiant attempt is made via black humour to show the team spirit that was imperative for a M*A*S*H unit to function. We are given glimpses into the main characters personal lives and their personalites, for example, Hawkeye's admiration for his father and for the nurses and Frank's (Surgeon) utter childish behaviour and desire to please Hotlips (Chief...
Advantages: SOME OF THE BEST 80's METAL RIFFS EVER. TRUE ROCK AND ROLL! Disadvantages: SOME WEAK SONGS. BUT MADE UP FOR BY OTHER AMAZING ONES.
...When it comes to doing reviews of music, I can focus more on the actual music of the album in a more isolated way, or the band and their previous musical efforts.
Unless you are a fan of the band, it seems pointless to write extensively about the previous work aside from drawing a comparison. So I shall review this album for "WASP virgins", who have never heard their music before. Here goes...
First, of all, the band W.A.S.P. which allegedly stands for White Anglo-Saxon Protestants, are not from the Bible belt!
This is definitely NOT Christian Rock/Metal!
Blackie Lawless (the lead vocalist) is not the name you would give to a man of virtue and purity. Quite the opposite.
That out the way, let's focus on the type of music that the band play. First a little bit of history is required to explain their sound.
With bands...
Advantages: A great series all in one collectors boxset Disadvantages: The price!!!
...This is the popular TV Series that started in 1972 and finished in 1983, 34 discs and lot's and lot's of laughs along the way.
One of the most successful TV sitcoms produced, covering the worst of America's Wars (sorry, Police action). The Korean war in the 1950's.
The Story.....
The war is raging 3 miles from the M*A*S*H (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital), and all sorts of problems and catastrophes are going on at the good old 4077th.
The unit is run by Colonel (Dr) Henry Blake (series 1 - 3) and then Colonel Sherman T Potter (series 4 -11), both commanders are vastly different, but the comic events that each of the characters portray, are about equal - both trying to run a unit under extreme conditions, whilst keeping the men and women happy, care free and most of all sane......
The two Doctors of the hour, Dr?s Benjamin...
Advantages: really tasty, tried & tested for veggies and meat-eaters alike, easy-to-find ingredients Disadvantages: VERY HOT, if you don't like spicy food this really won't be for you!
...for fellow Ciao members to try ? and to be honest, these were some of the best, easiest, most vegetarian-considerate, comprehensive recipes I found ? so well done, folks!
Unfortunately for you, this also means that while I?m waiting in limbo for Ciao to add the music album categories I already wrote reviews for (don?t worry, I?m not holding my breath), I am going to inflict on you some of my favourite, flavourful but FIERY recipes and see if any of you out there are prepared to take on my five-point chilli challenge! Hot food addicts only need apply! I will, however, arrange them in order of heat level for the less brave who might want to work their way down the list gradually?
~~~ CAUTION! ~~~
BEFORE YOU BEGIN?
Some of these involve some ready-made ingredients where L.A.?s cookery skills fall short of the mark, so make sure you check...
Advantages: It spwaned a brilliant TV show Disadvantages: Everything else
...Despite seeing very few M*A*S*H episodes in my life I knew from these few that it was a television series that I would love and so when I ordered it for Christmas I also ordered the M*A*S*H film which incidentally is what the television series is based upon.
I must at this point say that I was thoroughly disappointed with the film and since watching the first two series' of the television series have become even more disappointed with it. Now I'm certain that most people will disagree with me and say that the film was brilliant and hilarious throughout but I just can't find the appeal.
Like the television series the film is based in the 4077th MASH unit and shows how they cope with the day to day burden of facing countless young men that they must put back together again and ship out to continue the fighting. Unlike...
Advantages: Beautifully written, poetic and interesting Disadvantages: I want more!
...against an art professor, the elderly Dr. Himmelblau. Another teacher, Dr Peregrine chooses to discuss the compliant which she believes is false, over dinner?.
I was surprised to find that the titles of these stories do not specifically relate to the titles of Matisse's work. It's a shame because I think this would have been a nice touch. Nevertheless I recommend this book to anyone with a love of good literature. Art is not a requirement to appreciation in this case.

Advantages: Superb characterisation Disadvantages: Possibly too dark at points for some viewers
...M*A*S*H (Mobile Army Surgical hospital) was a television series that ran for eleven seasons between 1973 and 1983. The series was set in the Korean War and based around the oddball characters that served in the 4077th MASH.
The series itself fits into the category of black comedy set in the Korean War. It is probably the best place here to mention that this series does not insinuate ever that war or the situations is causes is a funny thing or that it is comedic in any way shape or form. It simply highlights how in the toughest of situations it is often the humour of those that remain that prevails the longest. Sort of along the ?they can crush us but they?ll never crush our spirit? lines. Therefore the series does not shy from making some statements about war even if they are made in a comedic way but is careful to place just...
