Tri-state area

[nlpnt at yahoo.com]

Any American who isn't from Alaska or Hawaii is from a "tri-state 
area"; it's used mainly in TV news...Kent Brockman in "The Simpsons" 
refers to a tri-state area in almost every appearance he's made on 
the show, despite the fact that the state where the Simpsons live is 
never revealed.

Who finds it interesting that the Simpson Halloween episode, in fine 
Fox style, will air the Tuesday after Halloween.
