But one which needs asking, because I've forgotten.

Nordberg. Wasn't he in MASH? Which one? The balding round-glasses one?


A dumb question.

Actually,

Nordberg is the name of (and I don't believe I'm fessy up to this, not to mention still using the nickname) OJ Simpson's character from "The Naked Gun" movies. Nordberg was most memorable for his clumsiness and inability to do things right.

Please note that the nickname denotes my similar physical ineptitude to the character of Nordberg and should not be used to associate me with OJ Simpson in any way (Oh God, please).

I can't recall if there was a Nordberg in MASH.

Of *course*.

I got you confused with a MASH character. I've discovered he was called "Radar". Which is close to Nordberg. It's got a "D" in it. smiley - smiley

That one was nagging at me, too... I knew I knew the name, but couldn't place it to save my life. The fact that it was OJ clued me in, though... I'm trying to forget everything about him. smiley - winkeye

Thanks for the welcome.
I guess the only question I have is "Why don't I find a better nickname?" But I think I'm the only one who can answer that. Something as obscure as my current one, but without the general double-murder overtones.

I'm always looking for suggestions.
