You can say that again.

That made me smile.  Reminded me of so many 'Hawkeye' moments from MASH.

All seriousness aside, I think I owe my incorrigible propensity to punning to
watching Hawkeye and Groucho in my formative years:-)

Oh my goodness--last nights ep. of MASH is when that film crew was at the
4077th and Hawkeye 'took over' production.  He and Trapper did the whole
Groucho/Harpo thing (mostly with Radar as the patient).

It was a very funny episode.

(...) Ah, "Yankee Doodle Doctor." A fine piece of celluloid. Much of Hawkeye's routine in that episode is a direct homage to Groucho in "A Day at the Races," worth seeing despite some racial issues[1] that may be uncomfortable to modern viewers. (...)
