Yesterday was the fiftieth anniversary of John Glenn's orbital flight, as well as the twentieth (yeek!) anniversary of the airing of the classic Simpsons episode "Homer at the Bat".

This post made me watch pull out my season 3 DVD and watch the episode...twice (the second time was with commentary).

It's so classic I even paraphrased a line from it on Beauty and the Geek. Come to think of it, all my good lines on that show I paraphrased from The Simpsons.
