> Or more visually, from the episode when George Bush (Sr.) moves to Springfield to get away from it all (“the town with the lowest voter turnout in the nation” where the people don’t recognize even his name, reacting with a hesitant “ohhh…” when he elaborate that he is “_former President_ George Bush”), we come back from the first commercial break to see Homer fingering an entry for GB in the Encyclopedia, muttering, “well, I guess his story checks out”.

I also liked it when Homer makes cardboard figures of George W. Bush and Jeb Bush. George Sr. looks through the peephole and sees them.

Homer: Hello, it’s your sons George Jr. and Jeb Bush.  
George: Barb, the boys are here!

How many of these have there been?

When he’s eating the fertility drugs that the whole family gave to Apu’s wife Manjula.

Homer: Mmm… Ovulicious…

And another favorite.

Lisa: Dad, you’ve been driving in circles for twenty minutes! Why don’t you just admit you don’t know where the hospital is?  
Homer: Why don’t _you_ admit I know it’s around here somewhere?!

“Who are you, and why are you ruining my retirement party?” “I’ll have you _KNOW_ I wandered _OFF_ from the _TOUR_.”

The delivery in that line is hysterical, IMO.

Why does Lisa have to be so moral? Why can’t she be more like … well, not like _Bart!_ But there has to be a happy medium.

I told you. I thought the police officer was a pro-sti-tute.

“Marge, you can’t become a cop, because if you do, then you’ll be the man, which means I’ll be the woman, which means that I’ll have to wear the sexy underwear, which, as we discussed, is strictly for comfort purposes.”[/QUOTE]

This line gets more play around my house than I ought to admit.

Paraphrased:

Homer:“But Bart, there is no such thing as a doggie heaven.”

That wasn’t Scorpio, that was Trent Steel, Max Power’s oldest and dearest friend. Hopefully this helpful tidbit of information will make up for my completely idiotic posting “blind spot” above :smack:

I love it when Homer displays this knowledge of trivia. Like Chief Justices of the Supreme Court:

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. What great men he would join. John Marshall, Charles Evans Hughes, Warren Burgher… Mmmmmmm… Burgher…
