I just found a book, "the Simpsons: A complete guide to our favorite family". It has Quotes, song lyrics, stuff you may have missed, chalk writing, summary, and highlights for ever episode(including the 48 on the Tracy Ulman show) up to "The secret war of Lisa Simpson".

Edit: Whoops, forgot what I was gonna add, it says that the state that springield is in has 2000 McDonalds.

Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi wrote:I'm guessing "Three times the size of Texas" was a joke, but there are no mountains over 20,000 feet in the lower 48 states (When Homer was climbing thatmountain, Bart said "There's noly 4 more vertical miles to go!")

Also, it's about 2,000 miles away form Arlen, Texas ("We travelled 2,000 miles for this?")

And about 2,000 miles from Orlando Florida

During the time period of the Battle of the Bulge, (December '44 to January '45) Royal Canadian Airforce Typhoons flew support missions for the U.S. 1st Army in its defence and later counterattack on the 5th Panzer Army and the 6th S.S. Panzer Army.

More Typhoons were shot down by USAAF Fighters than were shot down by Luftwaffe Fighers in this period.

It got so bad that Typhoons, on spotting P-51's or P-47's, automatically jettisoned their bombs or rockets and took evasive action if the American aircraft were in an aggressive approach path.

One Squadron, after suffering two losses to P-47's, in the course of a month's period, engaged and shot down one of the member's of a flight of P-47's who attacked on a third occasion.

Shep, I know about the Canadian scacrifices in WW2. I just meant that remark as a joke given your reputation for zealous support of all thing American.

Well if they are Canadian that would explain their hilarous and piss-taking view of the real America....

There are two additional volumes of that that go to the latest full season(I think it's the latest full one).

For another US argument, why was it a big deal when they went to Canada?

I have to think that you are not actually watching the episodes. They are Americans and there have been many episodes that have demonstrated this. As a matter of fact, they once went to Canada! I think everyone else on this thread is providing the evidence, so I will gracefully depart.
