Omni–thanks for the comeback!!
I don’t know if Simpsons things happen to me often (other than saying mmmm a lot), but I quote and use Simpsons stuff in classes all the time–I practically require simpsons viewing. In talking about families, relaitonships, work, etc., there are few shows that better show real life taken just one step beyond to the absurd.

Oh, well. We can always make more killbots.
Much to my husband’s dismay, for awhile anyway I was calling him my little Homey because of some amusing parallels. One of my favorites (again, dismaying my poor husband) occured when we were wandering through The Emporium at the mall. In the center aisle, where they place the overpriced knick-knacks no one needs but I guess they buy anyway, were clocks made to look like aquariums. They had water in them and little plastic fishes that, somehow, actually moved kinda like real fishes. They swished their tails and I don’t know if they had magnets or weights or what in them, but they kinda bobbled along the bottom and sides of the “tank” like a fish looking for food. At first glance, the eye was tricked into thinking they were real fish.
My husband was amazed by the illusion and blurted out in awe, “That is the most incredible thing I have ever seen!”
Unable to bite my tongue, I blurted out, “The bird is drinking the water!”
My husband is right, I am evil.
