Some meta-humor fun: the people that are at Moe's Tavern when Homer takes Artie there are all characters that, along with Artie, were voiced by Jon Lovitz (including Jay Sherman from the Critic).

Oy! Listen to Joe Klemm's latest shpiel!

This as a reference to the old Guinness commercial, where the entire universe was contained in the bubble of a pint. But the use of /Also sprach Zarathrustra/ would throw you for a loop, yes.

Where's the ocean in Chicago?

It's not an ocean; it's Lake Michigan!

Lake Michigan has international waters, the Coast Guard, and a direct passage to Russia?

No, but the other Great Lakes do!

Yes, see http://www.uscg.mil/d9/grumil/unit/kenosha/antkenosha.html and http://www.uscg.mil/d9/grumil/unit1/kenosha/antkenosha.html

No, to Canada!

Didn't you see "Here Comes the Coast Guard", starring Troy McClure? Duff man's TV was not turned on when they showed that movie!

The couch gag reminded me of the ending to the "Men In Black" movie.
