ABOUT THE BOOK

It all started out with an innocent conversation with a beautiful woman at a hotel bar in Vegas. Who would have known that the woman in question would reveal a truth that had the potential to change the world. Ok. Maybe changing the world is a bit of an exaggeration, but what she revealed would change the way the world watches television. Okay, that may be a bit of hyperbole as well. Ok, what the woman did was reveal the true inspiration of the fictional town of Springfield. This book documents that conversation, laying to rest all confusion and doubts about which city upon which the magical land of Springfield is based. Want a spoiler? Well, it's based on the Toronto suburb of Pickering Ontario. Don't believe it? Pick up the book, and you're guaranteed to become a believer.
