Sorry, Karl, but I disagree.  "They refered..." seems much worse to
me.  I kinda like the LL ref.  Makes sense to bring ol' Lurleen back for
this LL stuff (why did they, anyway?  did it add anything?...well I guess she
is a celeb from Springfield) I am glad the "Which state has the crooked
governor" refs died down though.

OK,

I caught the Murphy Brown reference, and the Disneyland rip-off
was great! 

But...

What was Lisa's Drug trip (drinking the "water" in Small World)
a rip off from?

An also, when Lisa comes home, she says,
"Can't talk now, coming down." (Presumably "down" from the drug trip.)
and goes up to her room.

Is this a "famous" quote/scene from somewhere?

Thanks,

John

This was my post from Monday:

Here's a scene from Selma's Choice (last Thursday).  A clergyman is
delivering a eulogy at a funeral.  But one of the deceased doesn't like the
way the eulogy is going.  It seems like it would be better if delivered by a
relative, instead.  So the relative of the deceased steps in and takes
over.  It's a surprise, because there was some gender confusion involved.
But the eulogy goes all right, and the relative develops just a little more
self-resolution.

To what movie is this a reference?

It's been 48 hours and NO ONE has guessed this.  The whole newsgroups is
thus awarded an Honorary Homer's Brain award, for doughnut-brainedness 
above and beyond the call of Homer.  Boy, will you feel silly.

The above is loosely based on a scene from YENTL.

D'OHH!

It was all from the same episode.  I think the comment got cut out for
trivial time constraint reasons or some such, because the set-up of
Krusty's illegitimate child is too perfect for Krusty to then scream
he had never been with a women (a nice twist on the old cliche').

Also, it deprived us here at ats of debating ad naseum about how Krusty
could never have been with a woman and yet have an obvious illegitimate
child (am I insinuating that we here at ats are humor impaired? ;-)
until one of us clever-people who don't get out enough would have pointed
out that Krusty must have been a doner at the Sperm Bank (member FDIC).
(Although would Krusty get the right idea and not bring his seltzer 
bottle? (ref: "Like Father Like Clown" [8F05]))

My work here is done.

Yes, but the sandwich is very consistent with Homer's character (and pretty 
funny IMHO - especially when marge found it begind the radiator).  I felt 
that it fit OK and that the gags because of it were pretty funny (i.e. - Homer
saying that Yentl sounded like a good movie and "cmon Marge, two more feet 
and it will fit in the fridge".)

Episode from 21 jan 
Life and Death
Homer eats a bad hoagie.
Barney fathers and army of burping babies.
Bart sees the world through beer vision.
And most of all,
Lisa Simpson takes a trip!  

What an incredible episode.  One of the best yet for comments on intoxicants  
and society.

Forget old movie/television references, this is big.  I mean really big.  Do  
you know what an LSD trip will do to an intelligent little girl like Lisa?!?   
Well... neither do I, but it must open up some pretty new ideas to her.  How  
will her sax playing be affected  "...I can see the music..."  And her  
relations with others "... Can't talk, coming down..."  And her very fiber of  
being " I am the lizard queen!!!"  This Simpson has experienced something  
truly unique in her growing up.

But since the Simpsons is a weekly situation comedy probably none of this will  
ever pan out.  Oh well, back to Itchy and Scratchy.

Probably not the water as much as something someone put in the water.
I'd bet it was some sort of Lys-something acid.  Maybe Otto DROPPED it
there...  Maybe it was that SIMPSON Blotter stuff....

>Speaking of which, what was her last line?  It sounded like "Can't talk,

Just plain old "COM'IN DOWN" as in ACID, LSD, SPEED always has a period
of Coming Down from the high a few hours after the high.

>(seen on the Security building) Surly says don't get caught or else!

It is rumored (me thinks Cecil Adams may have writtem about it) that in
the Disneyland Jail, there is a giant Mickey painted on the wall in
Day Glo colors.  No one I know, nor anyone they know have either seen it
(or admit to it) or have evidence of it.

I understand, from someone who was at Disneyland about 10 years ago, that
the Queen of Hearts caused a real bad trip for him when she started shouting
"Off with their heads!" while racing around with the other little cards...
I do believe that Surly and freinds must have been a cross between these
Cards, and the Seven Dwarfs.

Has anyone the full lyrics (like there were really a lot of words in it) for
the Small (Duff) World ride....  ???Duff beer for me, Duff beer for you,,,
we'll have a Duff beer...???

Since it seems that everyone here is big on even the smallest references,
could Lisa's acid trip be a reference to the acid blotters that were 
mentioned in the media a few years back displaying pictures of the 
Simpsons?

seems like all of the satellite feeds should still be then too, but 99% of the

George Long, who wrote asking for what a "lutefisk" is, should come to Norway.
It's the most non-appetising article of food ever devised, and it's of 
Norwegian origin. I don't know how it was invented, but it must have been due
to some silly northern Norwegian fisherman dropping his fish in a barrel full
of so-called "lut" - the English word is perhaps ... oh, I forget, anyway, it's
the opposite of acid. Hmm... Oh well. Anyway, it tastes awful, looks awful,
smells horrible and needs to be eaten if you want to be regarded as a cultural

Probably because someone noticed that in one episode (I can't remember which),
a woman approaches Krusty with a baby saying that it was his and that
he never calls.  (THe kid has his hair exactly)

And, by the way, he screamed that he'd never been with a woman, not that he 
was a virgin....

(I hope no one has posted this already:  I was lax about reading
   all of the past two weeks' worth of postings.)
