D'oh! 20th Century Fox is in hot water for a recent episode of "The Simpsons" where Bart is in a boy band. A backwards message for "join the navy," which was changed into "yvan eht nioj" has one woman furious. Yvonne Eht Neeoj, an immigrant from Lithuania who has lived in America for 11 years, claims that the producers of "The Simpsons" used her name in the episode without permission. Neeoj says that she wrote a fan letter to the Matt Groening in 1998, and he stole her name from the letter. "I am furious," she said in a phone interview with AP. "I cannot believe they would belittle my heritage like that. Only money will cure the injustice I have suffered." Neeoj is reportedly suing 20th Century Fox and Gracie Films for $5 million. ________________________________________________________________

Thank G-d my sarcasm detector already exploded. Otherwise, I would be a dead man right now.

Why doesn't her attorney start looking for every legal entity with deep pockets that happens to be nearby, and sue them, too. She could sue the 20th century, the quick brown fox (who jumped over the lazy dog), and Graceland (Elvis' estate is loaded).

I have a great solution to the problem! 20th Century Fox can file for Chapter 11 to avoid the lawsuit, and re-organize themselves as Dickety Century Fox! What a great idea!

DICKETY! You have saved me again!

Sorry, Dick T. Cenchuri-Fox already prevented that from happening.
