TODAY'S CULTURAL REFERENCE FROM "THE SIMPSONS"*

Live from the Third Rail reports on the proposal to sell the names of stations and trains on Las Vegas's new monorail.

Monorail?

Well, sir, there's nothing on earth
Like a genuine,
Bona fide,
Electrified,
Six-car
Monorail!


Obviously, the good burghers of Las Vegas have never seen that classic Simpsons episode.

"It is being built by Granite Construction Inc., Watsonville, Calif..." Not Shelbyville, then?

* - without linking to any Fox related site, yes!
