  Abraham Simpson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Abraham J. Simpson was born in an English-speaking European country, probably Ireland or Wales, although he forgets which one.
Abraham Simpson is estranged husband to Mona Simpson, father to Homer Jay Simpson and Herbert Powell, father-in-law to Marjorie Bouvier Simpson and grandfather to siblings Bartholomew J. Simpson, Lisa Marie Simpson and Margaret Simpson.
Grampa Simpson is an ancient, grizzled, periodically incontinent, and mostly senile figure who lives in the Springfield Retirement Castle, a sad, lonely place filled with demented, crippled, and depressed old people (a sign near the entrance says "Thank you for not discussing the outside world").

 Glossary
A theory of thunderstorm charge separation based upon the suggested occurrence of the Lenard effect in thunderclouds, that is, the separation of electric charge due to the breakup of water drops.
This theory, advance by Sir George C. Simpson in 1927, was initially intended to account for a bipolar charge distribution within a thundercloud having the main positive charge center near the base of the cloud and the main negative charge center higher up.
Simpson's theory, however, does not explain this phenomenon well because temperatures are below the freezing point in this region of the cloud.

 Jamaica Gleaner - Six winners for 'Slicer' Simpson - Sunday | September 8, 2002
TREVOR "SLICER" Simpson was the toast of Caymanas Park yesterday, the 33-year-old jockey booting home six winners from eight rides on the 10-race programme.
Simpson then came back to win the ninth aboard even money favourite IDITAROD, the jockey's prized yellow whip breaking in deep stretch when staving off the fast-finishing POWERED BY TUNDRA (9-5) by a length.
This six-timer, the third in the jockey's career (the first came in 1990), pushed Simpson's tally to 119 for the season, keeping him well ahead of the required pace to break George HoSang's 1974 all-time record of 167 winners in a season.

LEADING jockey Trevor Simpson, who rode consecutive triples over the past two race days including his 50th winner of the season, is poised to impact on tomorrow's Racing Pools game in a big way, having secured nine rides on the full programme.
Simpson could well make it three in a row with the fleet footed 3-y-o filly PRINCESS TALIA in the Restricted Allowance II over the round five course.
Simpson, who is popularly called "Slicer" should extend his streak with the 4-y-o filly, even though I would advise players to use back up choices in recent winners PRINCESS JAYSHARE, POLISH STAR and NO TEAR.

 Victory City: Media Coverage: The World According to Orville
Simpson is 64 years old, and for the last 27 years his life has been devoted almost entirely to the planning of Victory City.
Without embarrassment, Simpson recounted the story of how he had met Irmgard, who was then 19, when he was stationed in her village in Saxony for three weeks in 1945.
Simpson has never made the connection himself, but it is perhaps no accident that his work on Victory City began almost immediately after this great disappointment.
