MASHnote from Jeep Eater to MASH Online friends.

Hello to all here @ MASH online Joe Hollywood.

I'm here today to give an important piece of news to all of you that still remain. Namely MattB2,Kelleye,AshJ and those who still pop in once in a great while.

First,3 days ago was 10 years since we said goodbye to Larry Linville. A few days later in April,we received word from his nephew about their family having scattering his ashes. It was just before this that I came to this website.

Only 2 years and 7 months before had I logged on to my first PC. I was amazed at all the sites I found of my favorite TV shows,music acts and so forth. As you know and as I've said I was then "Walter O' Reily". Since then many things have changed here. The look of the site,the people that frequent it and (sadly) the number of people that have left.

I truly miss Radar's Sister's presence here and wonder where Matt is about now. I can only guess in the case of others they just lost interest. I think now,10 years later,I finally have. Not the interest in MASH itself,for I have all 11 seasons and the movie. Like Sherman Potter said to Radar , "You've come as far as you can go here".

I feel that's now true for me. The Trivia I just finished will be my last. Which is why I chose the topic that I did.
The site pretty much has become that,more about trivia than topic. ..but like Matt has said,we've discussed it all. Characters,Episodes,Bloopers,The DVDs and so much more.

Fact is,I had thought of leaving sooner but I decided to stick around and make this site's 10 anniversary more of an event and also stay until my 10th as well. I'm not specific on what date in April 2000 I started but I know it's about this time.

I want to thank all of you for playing mine and Sis's trivias (and Klinger's) and one last thank you to Matt for the fun bet we had about Season 11's DVD release. Those two things were the most fun.

I thank Mr. Joe Hollywood for creating the site and even making me a moderator and taking a suggestion or two.
I hope you can keep up the site for as long as possible. Thanks to all for everything!

For the last time , please remember :
B.J. : Can you see us at a reunion 10 years from now?
Hawkeye : Sure. The war's been over for a month,we all have grey hair....Charles has his in a box!!


So long all. (Click the link to see how much fun I had here! )

Hey Jeep (and all)
I'm in agreement with you here. Unfortunately this forum is sadly nothing but memories.
One TV show and an ever diminishing number of people meant it was going to fizzle out eventually. I think our 'spamming' months when the site was destroyed with spam messages and the loss of our 'mother', Radar's Sister from the site were the two biggest blows to our little group. The trivia used to be a wonderful and fun aspect of coming here, but eventually and inevitably it was all that was left.
You're right about what Matt said- and that is that we have said it all about a TV show that ended 27 years ago and there's really no more to give.

It's been sad watching the forum decline but there is simply nothing left to do or to say.
Thanks all for the memories- to the creator of this site and especially to Radar's Sister for the trivia, Matt and Jeep for their hilarious bet, Cowboy for his lovely custom-made signatures, Five O'Clock Charlie, Corporal Cupcake, Ashj, SpamLamb, Gem, CaryleBreslin- our last member- who breathed new life into the site and gave it it's 'last gasp' and Klinger Collective- who stuck it out until the end.

Thanks guys, it's been a great five years for me; but it is indeed time to say 'Goodbye.'

Gee whiz. It looks like we've gone to the end of the road here. I guess it's time to retire here,just like I'm retirin' from my job soon. I don't knw if any of y'all will see this but it's been great passin' the time here with you folks.
Jeepy,you're quite a card 7 I'm sure you can guess which card that'd be. Matthew,good luck in everything. All the ladies here,have a lovely life,I'm sure you're all lovely too.

Don't have a picture to put up but I'll quote one of my favorite MASH lines from Abysinnia Henry.
'Do you know what's in the box? A new suit!'
'How'd youknow my size?' 'I traced you while you're asleep!'

Adios!

I guess it is all over and we are going our separate ways. Best of luck to all. I have enjoyed your company and the discussions with fellow MASHers. Thank you for the trivia and for your company.

Goodbye everyone.

I'm as guilty as anyone about not logging in much, but I did genuinely enjoy my time here over the years.
If we never "talk" again, know that I truly wish the best for each and everyone of you!

And you never know what the future holds... we may see each other again.
"Now behave yourselves or I'll come back here and kick your butts!"
