Simpsons Signs, News Headlines Etc.

You missed a joke. The Candy Convention was in “Room 1!”

Bart’s patches when he was a scout:

Archery
Debt Collecting
Embalming
T.V. Trivia
Patch Forgery

Not a marquee sign, but a great throwaway line. It happens when Bart & Lisa (while searching for a supposedly dead Krusty the Klown) walks into Sailor Guy’s store, while he’s on the phone:

SAILOR GUY (into the phone): Arrrr, but I have customers and must go. Call me later, Ishmael.

When the family goes to Australia, for Bart to apologize, the parliament building is the front of the Austrian parliament, but says:

                                     al

Parliament-haus der Austr^ia

Also in that episode, the sign in the gift shop where Lisa wants to buy the diggeridoo (sp?):

Pedro sez “Eez good Koala-t”

Ok, well the al is supposed to be above the ^ in Austr^ia, but didn’t seem to come out that way (as though they had stolen or copied the Austrian parliament and scratched in the correction half-assedly).

Well, there’s a taffy shop called “Call me Delishmael” in the episode where Homer won’t give his kidney to his father and then goes to sea with a bunch of weirdos. So there’s your sign connection :slight_smile:
