Bologna
We can leave the Baloney in Baloney Sammich Truck but otherwise it should be bologna
- Both are accepted spellings... Merriam-Webster lists Baloney as a variant of Bologna. --phlip TC 15:59, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- Those words have undergone differentiation. Baloney is properly only "nonsense", and the meat product is bologna. — It's dot com 16:47, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- It's dot com, I don't think that's a true statement. M-W shows it as a variant of "bologna"; if you have a dictionary citation where it's noted that "baloney" doesn't mean "bologna" anymore, then provide it. Especially as they use the "baloney" spelling in the toon, and barring absence of evidence that it cannot adequately mean the meat, we should use the "baloney" spelling throughout. - Qermaq - (T/C)

Topiary
Who is that man in the topiary garden? It doesn't look anything like the bust of Van Buren... Rogue mentioned Shakespere in IRC, and it bears a resemblance... what do people think? --phlip TC 15:59, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- I think it might just be Shakespere.--H*Bad 16:07, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- I gotta agree with H*Bad. Shakespeare is who I immediately thought of when I saw that. Ramrod 16:34, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- I, too, thought of the Bard of Avon. — It's dot com 17:06, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Chaps upgrade to Flash 8?
They've said before that they still use Flash 5 (or was it Flash MX, I forget). But this eppisode used alot more blurred objects then usual (in the plane, the blades of grass the camera records and the quick zoom in on h*) and bluring is a new feature added to Flash 8 (Chaps have previously used photoshop to do this). I'm working on importing the flash file into my Flash 8, I'll see if that has any clues. --John
Doin' that thing you do
The lyric referring to "our bass player" reminds me of That Thing You Do!, where the bass guitarist had no other name than T(he) B(ass) Player. — It's dot com 16:47, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
"The part with the narwhal?"
At least, I think SB said Narwhal. You don't get that many of them in midair, but I'd imagine one of the celebrities had brought one along.
- There were no celebrities.--H*Bad 19:05, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- Perhaps a reference to Hitchhiker's Guide? It's far too subtle for me to add it, though someone braver might include it. At least it should die in STUFF.--Bobo the King 19:45, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Homsars hat flying off...
...and then coming back, reminds me of the parts from Airplane! when one of the characters tossed their jacket and it came back to him.--H*Bad 18:28, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, I think the sae thing happened with a hat too. I love that movie.... SaltyTalk! 18:46, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Homsar's hat comes back to him all the time. - Joshua 18:48, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
