I just realized the date of the first quote posted on my Homer Jay Simpson's Quote of the Week page is October 8, 2003. That means I've been posting a quote from my cartoon hero every Saturday morning for over two years.
Back in the days before the blog I would post a quote from Homer each week but I wouldn't archive the quote. So, every week I simply overwrote what was there until I got smart about it a couple of years ago. I gave Homer his own page, archived and date stamped older quotes and moved the blog to the home page.
Here was the very first quote posted on October 8, 2003: "Well, crying isn't gonna bring him back...unless your tears smell like dog food. So you can either sit there crying and eating can after can of dog food until your tears smell enough like dog food to make your dog come back or you can go out there and find your dog."
