If you don’t remember how to play, have someone give you a number and count that off. For example: If you get the number six, every sixth line (not including subject lines) gets crossed out, until you only have one option left. And ta-da! Future foretold.

I’ll make enough for a simple life (as a lotto-winner – lol!), and I will have a life filled with Happiness.

Enjoyed your blog. Stop by me anytime! *;o)
umm….areyouteeaych.wordpress.com
that would be helpful, no?
OMIGOD MASH! I totally forgot about that game!!
I think I might try this later.
I didn’t quite get what tyo do, but my number was four…
Love. This.
Wow I totally remember doing this. There is also a hilarious South Park episode where the boys freak out when the girls are playing MASH because they think that the girls can tell the future.
I am totally saving this for later when I am procrastinating! Love it!!
I used to LOVE that game. I like how you turned M.A.S.H. from mansion, apartment, shack, house into money, amore, sex, happiness. So fitting. And, really, as a twenty something right now – it feels like our lives are games of MASH, doesn’t it?
