    Simon dropping lines from Amish Paradise throughout is a fantastic move by the writer. 馃憣馃徎 well done.

    I can't help but wonder if Simon even realizes he's quoting Weird Al Yankovic

    Youve clearly heard Amish paradise on repeat. Hilarious. Love the references to Wierd Al

    I lived for years in an area with many Amish communities but they were very liberal (for the Amish). They made excellent neighbors.

    I bought the CD/tape "Amish Paradise" right when it came out. It was so fucking huge it's hard to explain. Everyone had heard it.

    I went to an Amish festival. They broke out the gas engine to power the ice-cream maker, it was a big deal

    Knew a cop who lived in an area with Amish once and apparently teenage Amish boys get pulled over for drinking and driving about as often as other teenage boys on they're in horse drawn buggies.

    The Amish in my region I have a business installing metal roofing. My cousin who is also a roofer says watching them work is amazing. A job that would take a week for another crew was done in a day. Everybody does their assigned position with precision. An economy of movement which accomplished results with maximum efficiency.
