Sorry you can't exactly see the Simpsons on the roof - the sun was shining west.



Please note the sign on top - that is very funny. Mrs Hawkeye-X is opening the door.



One of my favorite signs!



Bank of Springfield.. read on!

2. Haruka bought all the collectible Squishee straws
They were out of the Kwik-E-Mart coolers, Buzz Cola, and Krusty-O's, though.

3. Around here we have Kwik Trips
Which would have been easier to convert than 7/11s (but that chain does not have the money for this).

6. Every Simpson's fan worth their salt knows Apu's institutions
of higher learning: how he graduated from Caltech (Calcutta Technical Institute) and then came to Springfield for higher studies at the Springfield Heights Institute of Technology (SHIT).

7. Pics of the one in Burbank (pic heavy!)
The closest one to me in the L.A. area is in Burbank, which I love.. to me it seems like an FU to all the studios up here. I mean, you'd think they'd re-do the one near the Fox lot, right?

Anyways, here's some pics...

A squishee! I got the Woo Hoo Blue, which was actually damn tasty.



Do they have these at all of them? The door was covered with Artist renditions- my favorite was of Ralph Wiggum on top of a Donut saying "I'm a Sprinkle!"



Jasper in the freezer:



The graffiti on the outside wall-



And just for fun, here's me with Chief Wiggum:



I took these with my phone, so.. you know.
