Nostalgia: M.A.S.H.

Remember the game of M.A.S.H. you played as a kid? You know the one that had you list out M.A.S.H. (mansion/apartment/shack/house) list out significant others, careers, cars and the likes? My girlfriends and I decided to have a little fun with that recently and it was just like I remember it. Leaving your life to 'fate' based on swirls, choices and hopes.

If you forgot how to do the game of M.A.S.H. it is as follows:
Take a piece of paper.
On the top write out M.A.S.H.
Write three numbers in boxes (outlining how many children you will have)
Next create four columns, in whatever vernacular you use, depicting significant other, job, location and vehicle.
I used:
Suitors
Transportation
Life
Career

From there, have your friend draw a spiral and tell them when to stop. Depending on how many spirals there are, that is how you will count out each selection.
For each selection count it out. i.e. Mine had 7 spirals so in each section we counted to 7 and then crossed out the options. Whichever one is left standing in each section is your destiny.

As you can see from the photo below, my destiny is living in a mansion with Buddha as my significant other, enjoying my life in Zihuatanejo, MX, tooling around town on a moped, in my career leading Pets for Vets. Fate? probably not, but maybe? Either way, it sounds nice.
