Yep.
Springfield is crazy. Within the last ten years they changed the name of their airport from "Capital Airport" to "Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport." Come on! I mean, I get that Lincoln is Springfield's only claim to fame (other than me of course) but is it really necessary to STILL be looking for things to name after the guy? Everything in the damn place already revolves around him and he's been dead for 145 years. The whole town is a little creepy if you ask me.
