If a homosexual ate ice cream, would the ice cream go to hell? How many cups of sugar does it take to get to the moon? When it rains and the sun is shining, does that mean the devil is beating his wife? ---

Always turn to the classical works…of The Simpsons, of course. Birch Barlow: “Mayor Quimby, you are well known, sir for your lenient stance on crime, but suppose for a second that your house was ransacked by thugs, your family tied up in the basement with socks in their mouths, you try to open the door but there’s too much blood on the knob…” Quimby: “What is your question?” Barlow: “My question’s about the budget, sir.” ---

Yes, I know I need more than one trial, but that took enough effort. ---
