You could close down Moe's or the Kwik-E-Mart...

And nobody would care....

I found myself singing the Simpsons' "Save the Burlesque House" song in the shower this morning for some incredibly strange reason. Seriously... I have no idea...

Anyway, I thought this would provide a chance to publicly test my Simpsons in Syndication Theory, which states:

If you think about any Simpsons episode, it will invariably air within the next two-to-three weeks due to the myriad of syndication slots said show occupies.

Cases in point:

Last year, I had a similar shower experience, only this time it was, "Well Mr. Burns had done it. The Power Plant had won it, with Roger Clemens clucking all the while..." The very next day, the WB aired "Homer at the Bat."

While in Indiana, I was really jonesing for the "22 Short Films about Springfield" Episode, and sure enough, it aired within the month.

I have plenty of other examples, but I think you get the point. It's really incredible how often it seems to happen, especially with nearly 400 episodes floating around out there.

Anyway, I'd ask everyone to keep their eyes peeled for the Maison Derriere... er... "Back House." It should make an appearance some time around Easter.

Thanks.
