They even acknowledged that in that weird anniversery episode (what
was it, 138th show anniversery)?  Homer is increasingly the most
implausible character in the show...  and that's saying something.

I lived in Texas for four years, and the show captures the atmosphere
and feel or rural Texas perfectly...

I know it's not Texas, but there was a story out of Michigan about a hunting
club that for its charity, took some blind people out deer hunting, told
them where to aim, so they too might not be denied the joys of shooting
animals...
