T-shirt #223: Homer: JUST BECAUSE I DON'T CARE DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T UNDERSTAND

My nephew handed this shirt to me (along with a few others) when I arrived in PEI a few days ago. He and my sister Carolyn (a.k.a. “Auntie CAM”) picked them out for me at Value Village (www.valuevillage.com) in Charlottetown…thanks, you two!!

Today I finished reading the book Fletch by Gregory McDonald (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fletch_(novel), a gift from my friend Matt. Although I didn’t enjoy it as much as the movie, it was interesting to get a more in depth look into the world of I.M. Fletcher and see the differences between the book and the movie. And even though I had a pretty good idea how it was going to end, it’s always nice to finish a book (I am happy to tell my sister Megan that H.P. and The Sorcerer’s Stone is next on my list!).

Homer and Fletch will always be two of my favorite fictional characters. Although Fletch is a lot smarter than Homer, they both are hilarious and speak their minds. They both clash with their bosses and find themselves in extraordinary circumstances. If you have talked to me enough, you have most likely (with or without knowing it) heard me quote both of them many times.

I did make one Fletch shirt, http://davestshirts.blogspot.com/2010/07/t-shirt-190-fletch.html, and I have more Simpsons shirts: http://davestshirts.blogspot.com/2010/02/t-shirt-51-spider-pig.html

Hmmmm, maybe I will write a Simpsons episode that has Fletch somehow finding himself in Springfield…
