Simpsons question: Why does Professor Frink say "hoyven glayven"?

Although I am a big Simpsons fan, I never understood why Professor Frink is always saying “by glayven!” and is obsessed with flubber. Is this a spoof of something I am not aware of?

I’ve always believed that it was a send up of Jerry Lewis’ Nutty Professor.

With the huyven and the glayven HEEEEYYYYY

Prof. Frink is mostly Jerry Lewis, but the flubber obsession is from Disney’s Absent Minded Professor.

Damn, Baggins111, you beat me to it! Yeo, that’s it. He even looks like Lewis (before he looked like the Great Pumpkin, of course).

HEEEEY LAAAADDYYYY!
