We got in a bunch of discount DVDs at work, including the first three seasons of the A-Team. They're 19.99 instead of the usual $50-60. Meep meep! The A-Team is comfort food for me. I am periodically overcome with the need to watch back to back episodes. And since I've cut myself off from buying books, yet still have a GC to spend..."Only during the 1980s could this peculiar blend of lefty politics and military fetishism have thrived. Though supposedly mercenaries-for-hire, the A-Team usually finds itself defending the downtrodden and helpless out of sheer cussedness. In the second season they helped abused migrant workers form a union--which, naturally, required transmogrifying farm equipment into a cabbage-shooting cannon." [from the amazon description]
I have never forgotten the cabbage canon, since I first saw the episode as a child.
