I just watched the ep where Lisa and Homer take a spin in the sensory deprivation tanks, and Lisa gains some empathy for her father. At one point, they sit down to watch TV, and there's a (probably Fox) show called "When Animals Attack Magicians".

I really thought I invented that joke, but apparently I got it from Simpsons. Or maybe I did invent it, and they stole it from me and now owe me some royalty payments. Yeah, that's probably it.

And, apropos of nothing else, here's an exchange from the same episode that made me laugh:

Agnes: "Seymour! You were supposed to call me three minutes ago!" Seymour: "Sorry, Mother. I was in a tunnel with no cell service." Agnes: "I don't want you driving through tunnels! You know what that symbolizes!" Seymour: "But Mother, it shaved 90 minutes off my commute!" Agnes: "No tunnels!!"

How odd, thought that he has a 90 minute commute to the local elementary school. He must have gotten lost. Agnes: "Seymour, this is taking too long." Skin: "Well I'm not principal of the line, Mother." Agnes:"And you never will be." "Fritz Foetzl" wrote in message news:[email]...

Maybe he lives on the other side of Mt. Springfield or the Murderhorn.

Or maybe they were filming a segment for the next Stock Footage Film Festival.

There ain't no monorail and there never was.

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. - Elayne Boosler
