                        Carpet Debris Production.
 
 

                                              HOMER SIMPSON
                        A devoted husband, Homer leaves his wife with few complaints. When pressed
                        however, Marge did once acknowledge to a marriage counselor that Homer
                        "forgets birthdays, anniversaries, holidays (both religious and secular), chews with
                        his mouth open, hangs out at a seedy bar with bums and lowlifes, blows his nose
                        in the towels and puts them back in the middle, and scratches himself with his
                        keys." Despite these few foibles, Homer loves his family, and he'll do just about
                        anything to prove it -- even if that means making himself look foolish.

                        Homer works at Springfield's nuclear power plant as a safety inspector, a job he
                        secured after passing the specialized training course on his third attempt. Once
                        during a strike, Homer's critical functions could be filled only by a brick placed on
                        a lever. Homer was also voted Springfield Nuclear Power Plant Toxic Waste
                        Handler of the Month in October of 1990.

                        Homer's favorite book and/or pamphlet is "So, You've Decided to Steal Cable,"
                        which also happens to be the most recent book and/or pamphlet he has read.
                        When he's not reading, Homer enjoys drinking beer, at home or in a bar. His
                        favorite haunts include Moe's Tavern, Greasy Joe's Bar-B-Q Pit, Gulp 'N' Blow,
                        and The Frying Dutchman, which he almost put out of business on its "All You
                        Can Eat Night." Since then, Homer's picture has hung in the restaurant, where
                        he's known as "Bottomless Pete: Nature's Cruelest Mistake."

                        Sometimes frustrated at being fat and bald, Homer enjoys flashbacks now and
                        again, which show him fat with a full head of hair. Two things, though, always
                        remain constant for Homer, no matter what happens to him: his happy-go-lucky
                        nature and his love for Marge and his kids.
