Yeah, we watched Monty Python on PBS. I probably should not have watched Monty Python as young as I did, but really it was so weird that the stuff that was over my head was just additional weird stuff, not must-figure-out-what-that-means stuff.
I've subscribed to a Night Vale podcast but have yet to listen. Never seems like the right time or environment to start it, somehow.
I was, of course, trying to reference The Simpsons.

That's what I thought. Was the Simpsons thing about dogs with bees shooting out of their mouths?
That's how I remember it.
I remember Monty Python on PBS! I have a very clear memory of sitting on the floor watching the scene with the knight who will fight you with one hand behind his back, and one arm, and one leg ...
It was the Dr. Who theme that scared me. Every time I stumbled past it, I turned the channel immediately.
Africanized bees have made their way to northern Ohio? I thought they were just now reaching Tennessee.
They don't seem to have addressed the fact that if Australian sheep owners said, "Fly free, little sheep," most of the sheep would have lives that were nasty, brutal and short.
At least some of them, because they created a breed that doesn't shed, has wrinkly skin for maximum surface area, and will die of overheating in a season. So, problem solved! No more unhappy Merino sheep, because no more Merino sheep.
What I was trying to say was that PETA doesn't seem to be offering any options except death for the sheep that are already there. The problem would be solved, but it hardly seems humane.

We're very southern Ohio; just across the river from Kentucky (and my friend with the bees is in Kentucky). My understanding, from knowing about 4 people with backyard hives, is that the Africanized bees are definitely here. I have to take their word for it.
PETA isn't big on options, in general, just stances.

There's a really heartbreaking moment in SPN where one character finally gets the reference, and my brain never fails to harsh my mellow with it after seeing this quote.
