Jebediah Springfield
Springfield's town founder, Jebediah Springfield isn't exactly what the history books and short films (starring Troy McClure) would have you believe. Here's what the history books want you to believe:
In 1796, Jebediah Obadiah Zachariah Jedediah Springfield, a brave pioneer and woodsman founded the town of Springfield. He built the town's first hospital out of mud and logs. He tamed the buffalo or as he named it, the land cow, and he even killed a bear with his bare hands.
Hmmmm... seems a little bare, doesn't it? Well, if it seemed that parts of his life were missing, that's because they were. Here's the truth about Jebediah Springfield:
Jebediah Springfield wasn't always his name. His name was Hans Sprungfeld up until 1775, a year before he went on to found Springfield. Hans Sprungfeld was actually a blood-thirsty pirate with a silver tongue. (His real tongue was bit out by a Turk in a grog house fight.) He once attacked George Washington. And remember that bear that he killed with his bare hands? Historians have come to the conclusion that the bear probably actually killed him.

Lately, I've been bored, and I've been reading a lot of best and worst Simpsons episode lists, and I thought that I would try to cram another salted snack treat into the world's already bloated snack hole... if you know what I mean. (If you don't, watch the season eight episode "The Twisted World of Marge Simpson.")
Warning: The soapbox you are about to read contains very few facts, and is mostly the opinions of me. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, and is almost entirely me rambling on about the Simpsons. I suppose the only time it would be useful is if you've never seen the Simpsons, and want someone to recommend some episodes.
Let's start with the bad news - the Bottom Five Simpsons Episodes. You may get some conflicting reports, i. e. I tend to not agree with most other "Worst Simpsons Episodes" Lists, but here we go.
5. Sideshow Bob Roberts
This episode would've been the worst episode, but luckily it featured Sideshow Bob, which saved it from the depths of the "worst list", but didn't quite save it from the top of the "worst list." I don't like to see politics in the Simpsons. This episode didn't...

Space Coyote, a talented female artist on deviantART created this very cool anime-ized version of the Simpsons. Here's a link to more of her work.
