father mulcahy ⋆ oh you pretty things

[andrandiriel]

Have you ever wondered how Father Mulcahy would sound reciting the opening lines of the Iliad in Homeric Greek? Well, apparently Bill Christopher had a copy of the Iliad on his person at all times

[source]

"I find this very uplifting," he says, before reading the bit that's like "Sing, goddess, the wrath of Achilles..." what a darling dork

---transcript under the cut---

Interviewer: Do you have a verse for us today, Father Mulcahy?

Bill Christopher: I don't, uh, think I have a verse in, uh, in English; I could read you a little Greek, though

I: Oh yes, would you?

B: Sure, you wanna hear a little Homer's Iliad?

I: Yes

B: I just happen to have the Iliad; I'm never without it!

I: Yeah?

B: Alexander the Great never went anywhere without the Iliad

I: What translation is that?

B: This is not a translation

I: Oh you're gonna read it in the original?

B: Of course!

I: I'm impressed!

B: I, uh, I find this very uplifting. Ah, you ready for this?

I: I'm ready

B: μῆνιν ἄειδε θεὰ Πηληϊάδεω Ἀχιλῆος

οὐλομένην, ἣ μυρί᾽ Ἀχαιοῖς ἄλ��ε᾽ ἔθηκε

I: [starts speaking gibberish and keeps at it for a weird amount of time]

B: Oh, I'll help you with it

I will not rest until the rest of MASHblr is as insane about the 80’s office AU ads as I am

So I wanted to compile the ads so I could just post one video and not like a whole YouTube playlist, but I quickly found out that there are SO MANY MASH IBM ads! So I decided to leave out ones that weren’t office related and were more ‘Alan Alda puts on a bunch of different hats’ and ‘Jamie Farr repeatedly tries and fails to enter a building’ and I actually had to cut one ad of Alan and some kids in a classroom that I wanted to put in cuz I think it’s cute.

But anyway, I am always gnawing at the bars of my enclosure thinking of the universe these ads take place in. Like, who flooded the office? Did Trapper ever get to go to Hawaii? Where’s BJ? (JK he’s at a gay picnic)

I feel like there’s a rich vein here and us weirdos, sickos, and perverts need to buckle down and really dig into the potential for office shenanigans.
