Flanders: Oh, I don’t care for the speed, but I can’t get enough of that safety gear – helmets, roll bars, caution flags …  
Anyhoo, I don’t think Darwin or Newton were wrong, merely that their theories were subject to later refinements.

Well, yeah, that was kind of the joke.

Once more for **cerberus** :

I resent your slanders. Some of us like pro-wrestling (See, out of all that horrible stuff he said about rednecks, the only thing I took umbrage with was NASCAR. Then I went on to say how I liked something equally rednecky.). The costumes are shinier (Dumb people everywhere like shiny things. You don’t even have to be a redneck) and you don’t have to count as much (i.e.–You only have to count up to three. Some of those NASCAR races make you count _dozens_ of laps, and if you’re really, really, _really_ bad at math, you might not be able to enjoy it as much as you would pro-wrestling.)

That’s about all there was to the joke (except for the fact that I’m not really a redneck. I live in Boston. You’d have to go to Clenchjaw, New Hampshire to find a bigger Yank than I.).
