For those of you who are fans of the M*A*S*H* reruns, which colonel do you like the best....Colonel Henry Blake or Colonel Sherman Potter?? I'm a big Col. Potter fan. Watched the episode last night when he was moved to tears when Radar presented with a horse for his anniversary. One of my favorite episodes.

I'm a Col. Potter man. Henry was always to ... different. But he was an official, so that may explain a lot.

Two types of people,
Two types of humor.

Henry Blake was a comedy all by himself,
while Potter was the straight guy to the other members of the cast.

As for choosing between the two, thats kinda like asking which came first, the chicken or the egg, it doesn't really matter because it takes both to make a good meal like fried chicken and tater salad...

TWO CENTS WORTH
The story goes that a man died and was approached by the Devil who told him that he could buy his soul back for a dollar. The man searched his pockets and could only come up with 98 cent. While begging the Devil to forget the two cent he was short, an Angel happened by and hearing the Devil laughing, asked the man, "Would you mind if I put in my two cents ?" The Devil got so mad that he exploded in a puff of smoke and the man's soul was saved.
The moral: Sometimes putting in your two cents worth makes a difference.
JOHN "the cook" 1997

I liked Harry Morgan better when he was Jack Webb's second banana in Dragnet. Both Jack and Harry had excellent screen chemistry. Very believable and that's just the facts, Ma'am.
