Cultural references

• Lisa's quest to save Springfield's oldest redwood tree by living in it is a reference to the real-life story of Julia Butterfly Hill and a redwood tree called "Luna". Hill lived in the tree for two years and succeeded in preventing it from being cut down by loggers. The details of Lisa's day-to-day existence in her tree (such as hauling supplies up to her tent by a rope) are very similar to Hill's.
• When the giant log destroys Kentucky Fried Panda, Homer exclaims "No! It was finger-ling-ling good!", which is a reference to Kentucky Fried Chicken and its slogan, "Finger-Lickin' Good", and to either Ling-Ling or Ling Ling, both of whom were famous giant pandas.
• When The Rich Texan said that he would want 100 simeleons. Simoleons are actually the currency in the best-selling game-The Sims.
• A game system The Gamestation 256 is a parody on Nintendo 64 and Sony PlayStation.

• When Bart tosses his game system in the fireplace, it yells, "No! I can still make you happy! To the max!" The closed captions have the line as, "Warning: store in a cool, dry place. A cool dry place!"
• Bart tells Marge that he doesn't have a cap during Marge's "Put it in your cap" song. Apparently he -- and, more realistically, the writers -- forgot the early episodes in which Bart had a lucky red cap.
