<p>Anyone catch The Simpsons last night (Nov 19)? Moe is invited to a writers’ conference in Vermont. It’s called the “Wordloaf Conference”–a thinly veiled reference to Middlebury’s Breadloaf Writers’ Conference. The episode featured the voices of noted authors Tom Wolfe, Gore Vidal, Michael Chabon and Jonathan Franzen.</p>

<p>yeah - a couple of the writers went to midd. the criminal guy, snake, has a middlebury t-shirt in one episode as either an ironic or deprecating joke, i’m not sure which. after stealing some cash he says, “thank god, now i can pay off my student loans!”</p>
