Al Gore is the Vice President of the USA and a published author. He wrote the book Sane Planning, Sensible Tomorrow.
History
When the Simpson family went to Books! Books! And Additional Books!, Lisa bought two books: a biography of Peter Ueberroth and Al Gore's new book, Sane Planning, Sensible Tomorrow. She said she hoped that Gore's new book was as exciting as his previous one, Rational Thinking, Reasonable Future.
When the bookstore clerk scanned Sane Planning, Sensible Tomorrow at the cash register, a signal traveled to The Pentagon and Gore was notified that someone had finally bought a copy of it. When he got the news, he said, "Well, this calls for a celebration." Gore then put on an LP record and played the song "Celebration" by Kool & the Gang. When the song got to the lyric, "Celebrate good times", Gore even-tonedly said, "I will."[1]
Al Gore was later seen at Moe's Tavern wearing his Nobel Peace Prize.[2]
Behind the Laughter
- Al Gore served as Vice-President of the United States for two terms (1993-2001), under President Bill Clinton.
- The fictional books Rational Thinking, Reasonable Future and Sane Planning, Sensible Tomorrow are tongue-in-cheek references to Gore's real-life 1992 book, Earth in the Balance.
- In popular culture, Gore had a reputation for being bland and emotionless, as depicted when he puts on the music.
