Trivia

[arctangent]

The drummer, Neil Peart, was taking flying lessons and apparently decided that the YYZ morris code had a good rhythm to it and worked it into an instrumental musical piece. Hence the name of the song as well as the opening rhythm.

i knew that but hadn't seen the question. don't you mean MORSE code though?

[JimJamBonds]

That is correct. "It's Raining Men" was Homer's favorite song/album.

Hmm I stand corrected. I thought the exchange went something like:
Moe: "There is a new song in the #1 slot on the jukebox"
Hommer: "Its raining men?"
Moe: "Not no more it ain't."

Or atleast it was something along those lines. I haven't sceen that episode in some time so I'll bow to those that have more Simpsons knowledge then me.

Oops. My internal spell check missed that one.

I am shocked and disturbed. That was one of the funniest episodes, if not the funniest, in recent memory.

Other great lines include the classic "Something not right here. . . . I've got it! This gay bar doesn't have any peanuts!"

And don't forget Guy Incognito, possibly the funniest one-off character in the show's history.

Moe: "Beat it Homer!!"
Guy Incognito: "Who is this Homer? My name is. . . Guy Incognito."
(Guy Incognito is tossed onto the street.)
Homer: "Hey! This guy looks just like me! Hey! This dog has a poofy tail!! Hee hee hee hee!"

... you have gotten off-topic, Chuxter. There is not a single, mega-multiple post thread sized time in the history of mankind that you have ever participated in something that got off-topic. For shame. [I am rubbing my fingers toward you as Howl Hewzer, as I am sitting on the back of the Turnip Truck, right now]

Where's the trivia, people? I'll do one, an impossible one:

What 90's rock band began under the original name Mighy Joe Young, but had to change it during recording because an old blues singer named Joe Young decided to come out of retirement?

[CaptainSolo1138]

Damn, dude. Six minutes?! You're slippin' in your old age.

I really don't know, but I'll guess Ugly Kid Joe (Songs of note: "I Hate Everything About You," remade "Cat's in the Cradle" I think).

BTW, Chuxter, I was kidding. I forgot to put smilies in my post, so I hope you weren't offended by my rash, insensitive comments. I will make up for it now:

Nope, not UKJ. The band in question has talent (at least IMO).
