I haven’t seen the Boot ep in syndication since 9/11 but then I don’t watch The Simpsons every day. I did just see the Navy/boyband ep where L.T. Smash blows up Mad Magazine and the Twin Towers are visible in that scene. ---

Ahhh … Gamblor. Forgot about that. Although “Floreda!” has long been in my lexicon, to the confusion of many. ---

Well, apparently this episode was [aired tonight](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=216603) in at least one market. Looks like they’re not pulling it. Good. Part of that episode that makes me laugh EVERY time: Homer: HurnaFreedaWerdaHowa!!! Marge: Slow down, Homer, you’re not making any sense! Homer: Hurna…Freeda…Werda…Howa!!! Marge: Think before you say each word! ETC… 😃 ---
