I forgot all about that MASH game, I was picturing myself playing it!

Speaking of "Where's the Beef?", does anyone remember the lady that did that commercial actually did a commercial for Prego spaghetti sauce, something with alot of meat in it, and in that commercial she said "Here's the Beef". Wendy's actually wound up firing her over that! (I guess I must be stuck in that time period lol)
