Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia - Montgomery Burns

Charles Montgomery "Monty" Burns (usually simply Mr. Burns) (born September 15 in an unspecified year), a fictional character, is the owner of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant in The Simpsons cartoon series. He is fabulously wealthy, and due to his status as Springfield's leading (and perhaps only) plutocrat, Mr. Burns is able to do whatever he wants with little to no consequences. He is attended at almost all times by Waylon Smithers, his loyal aide and confidant. Harry Shearer is the voice behind the character of Mr ...

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Montgomery Burns - Biography

Montgomery Burns - Early Life. Occasional flashbacks show his early life. When he was very young he lived happily with his loving, natural parents, little brother George, and his teddy bear Bobo, which he recovered from Maggie Simpson. Apparently his parents even called him "Happy." He soon chose to live with a twisted billionaire, again reminiscent of Citizen Kane. His mother is still alive, despite her likely age being in the area of 120-140, and is very resentful of her son; it is mentioned that she had ...

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Mayo Clinic - History

The Mayo Clinic evolved from the frontier practice of Dr. William Worrall Mayo and his two sons, William James Mayo (1861–1939) and Charles Horace Mayo (1865–1939).

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Mammon - Personifications

In the Bible, mammon is personified in Matthew, vi, 24, and Luke, xvi, 13, the latter verse repeating Matthew, vi, 24. In some translations, Luke, xvi, 9, 11 also personifies mammon; but in others, it is translated as 'dishonest wealth' or equivalent. In some spanish versions, it is said as "Mamón", but in others, as "Dinero". Early mentions of mammon appear to stem from the personification in the Gospels, e.g. Didascalia, "Do solo Mammona cogitant, quorum Deus est sacculus"; and Saint Augustine, "Lucrum Punice Mammon dicitur" (Serm. on Mt., ii). Gregory of Nyssa also asserted ...

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Business magnate - Etymology

The word tycoon is derived from the Japanese word taikun. The literal meaning is "great lord" and was historically used to imply to foreigners visiting Japan that the Shogun was supreme ruler of the country. The word entered the English Language in the 19th Century with the return of Commodore Perry to the United States. US President Abraham Lincoln was humorously refered to as Taikun by the members of his cabinet, whereby the term spread to the business community where its spelling and definition were adapted int ...

List of neologisms on The Simpsons - Sacrilicious. Homer's description of his act after eating a waffle that Bart threw on the ceiling, which he was praying to as if it were God.

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Ramones - Band history

Ramones - 1974-1975 Early Days. The initial version of the band included Jeffrey Hyman on drums, John Cummings on guitar, and Douglas Colvin on bass and vocals. Colvin was the first to use the stage name Ramone, calling himself Dee Dee Ramone. He was inspired by the fact that Paul McCartney used the pseudonym Paul Ramone (although some accounts say Paul Ramon) when he checked into hotels. The other members followed suit and adopted new stage names; Hyman became Joey Ramone, Cummings became Johnny Ramone, and the g ...

The Simpsons - Characters. The main characters were originally created by Matt Groening as part of a series of original animated segments for The Tracey Ullman Show. Over the course of the series Groening has used many of the themes present in his long-running comic strip series, Life in Hell. (For instance, the idea of creative school children constantly being persecuted and suppressed by totalitarian grown-ups stems from the strip.) Many of the characters in The Simpsons take their names fr ...

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Joe DiMaggio - Early life

The eighth of nine children, DiMaggio was born in a two-room house to Sicilian immigrants, delivered by a midwife. His mother, Rosalia, named him "Giuseppe" for his father; "Paolo" was in honor of Saint Paul, Giuseppe's favorite saint. The family moved to San Francisco when Joe was one year old. Giuseppe was a fisherman, as were generations of DiMaggios before him. It was his dream to have all five of his sons fish the Bay with him. Joe would do anything to get out of cleaning his father's boat, as the smell of dead fish made him sick ...

Hughes was born in Humble, Texas on December 24, 1905. His parents were Allene Gano Hughes and Howard R. Hughes, Sr., who invented the dual cone roller bit, which allowed rotary drilling of oil wells in previously inaccessible places. He founded Hughes Tool Company to commercialize this invention.

Despite attending many good schools, he never earned a diploma. He attended the Fessen ...

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Infinite monkey theorem - Literature and popular culture

Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels (1782) anticipates the central idea of the theorem, depicting a professor of the Grand Academy of Lagado who attempts to create a complete list of all knowledge of science by having his students constantly create random strings of letters by turning cranks on a mechanism (Part three, Chapter five). In "Inflexible Logic" by Russell Maloney, a short story that appeared in The New Yorker in 1940, the protagonist felt that his wealth put him under an obligation to support the sciences, and ...

The relationship between Grampa and Bart deteriorates after Grampa's senility and abrasiveness embarrasses Bart at the elementary school. At around the same time, one of Grampa's fellow-veterans of the Second World War dies, leaving Mr. Burns as the only other living member of Grampa's war squad, the Flying Hellfish. In the final days of the war, the unit had removed Germans from a castle when Burns discovered several paintings.

Montgomery Burns: Encyclopedia II - Springfield The Simpsons - Where is Springfield?

The location of Springfield is a long-running joke in the series, based in the fact that 34 states in the United States have at least one community with that name. Episodes frequently make fun of the fact that Springfield's state has never been revealed, by adding further conflicting descriptions, obscuring onscreen map representations, and interrupting conversational references.
