I liked this episode. The early bit satirized everything there is to satirize about Chicago in about 60 seconds.
Chicagoans: "While you were here, we felt like New York."
Stephen Colbert is playing Homer's life coach. They're talking on the phone, as Homer is trying to fly a plane.
SC-"I''m not very good. I went to the Harvard of the South."
Homer-"Duke? That's good."
SC-"Not Duke."
Homer-"Vanderbilt?"
SC-"A little further south. Don't make me say it."
So I guess it's official. Duke is the Harvard of the South.

I was on a plane and missed this.
Colbert went to Porter-Gaud HS in Charleston. I thought that was the Harvard of the South.

Heh, likewise I was the bridge between the Tom B and Ovie Mughelli eras.
What an esteemed alum base for a school with ~80 kids per graduating class.
And don't forget Sallie Krawcheck. Maybe not as well known as Colbert (outside of the business and finance world), but I bet Colbert can't say that he's been ranked ahead of Hillary Clinton, Melinda Gates, Laura Bush, Queen Elizabeth II and Oprah on the Forbes "Most Powerful Women in the World" list.

Ooh, that's cool -- I didn't know she was a PGer.
Julie Rawe, who was editor of the WATCH when I was in 8th grade, also gets a lot of pub as a reporter (editor?) for TIME.
