A Midsummers nice dream

I was out of the country last week hence the lateness of this blog-

This was the episode from Sunday March 13th. It begins with a newscast announcing how Cheech and Chong will be returning to springfield. It shows them as newscasters in the past and they are absurd. They'll be preforming at the clamphoitheter. Bart asks who they are and Homer is in shock, wondering how he could possibly not know who they are. Is a strange coincidence because just this morning my roommate and I were talking to her younger sisters about how there are so many shows from our childhood that she never got to see and how much ebtter they were than the programs that are on now. It's crazy how as time passes by things come and go. Another thing that I think of when it comes to stuff like that is something like September 11th. My age group was pretty much one of the last to be able to actually remember the day it happened and how we felt. The younger kids just remember it happened but didn't really know the severity of it at the time and kids now weren't evn alive for it but just simply learn about it in school. That is so bizarre to me but it's just how the world works. At thje Cheech and Chong sshow, Homer steps in to do comedy and the whole crowd is laughing. He exclaims "my time being wasted is not being wasted" which is a line from a new generation song. Homer gets offered a position as the new Chong! He goes on tour with Cheech, as "Cheech and Chunk".  All he is talking about is getting high but Cheech says no. Chong then holds auditions for a new Cheech. He finds it difficult to find a replacement. He finds a man that he says is the least funny man there is which he feels will be "pushing the envelope" so he offers him the job. Marge is taking a walk and looses the dog to a womans house. They go inside to find the dog and see that she has a hording problem. It reminded me of the show Hoarders and sure enough they begin discussing the show. In order to clean her house they needs to keep her busy so they send her to the play CATS which i find very funny since shes a "cat lady". After looking through her stuff she sees that she loves all the things in the trunk.She begins hoarding all the things out of the dumpster for herself. In order to solve the problem she brings the crazy woman to her house and lets her have all the stuff back because it was making her into a crazy woman. In the end Homer reunites Cheech and Chong. In the end they realize that you must forgive people you care about which is something i fully agree with
