One of the most popular covers in the Take Cover Project has been this one of Homer by Simpsons' creator Matt Groening. We asked the husband, father, son and safety inspector at Springfield Nuclear Power Plant some questions on the last 20 years:
What do you remember of 1991?
America was in a horrible economic slump, mired in Iraq, trying to overcome the presidency of George Bush. Thank God that’s all in the past.
How have the last 20 years been for you?
The first 10 were a blissful binge of beer, bowling and bar snacks. Then those goddamn kids came along.
What has been your proudest moment over the last two decades?
Not getting killed doing something incredibly stupid.
What advice would you give to men in 2011?
Don’t have sex with women born later than 1993.
What’s next?
Beats me. I was hoping you guys were going to take me to lunch.
