Brilliant!
Is something along the lines of "where is the something of the something?"

 Some poor sod is about to get plagued with unwanted phone calls...

My first year in college, we had a public pay phone in the dotmitory. Whoever answered when it rang, said "Brackenridge hospital artificial insemination ward, Do you want an appointment for natural insemination? When my mother called she was offended!

Well it - or rather, the computer game that preceded it - was pretty well-known at the time, even by those not into such things. The phrase became something of a meme, in the days before memes...

It really doesn't ring the faintest of bells with me. Did I miss out on something good?

Don't know - never saw it, or played it. It was aimed at children, I do believe.

No, not really. It was a "detective game" where you had to work out who it was from a set of clues (which eliminated the others if you read them carefully).
It passed the time, but it was no Doom.

Sound like a cross between Cluedo (surely the worst board game ever made) and Whodunnit without the mighty Mr. Pertwee.

It was probably good for kids - it taught you to think about things, and to make the correct inferences from what you read. Just far, far too much of the same thing for any long-term interest.

Not the TV show, but my kids had the video game. They played it for hours on end and got really good at geography!

What a game!!!
Sigh... context for the uninitiated: The Super Bowl.
Surely no-one but the most die-hard Patriot fans would begrudge the Eagles that win. They were tremendous. On paper the game should have been a walk in the park for the Patriots, but the underdogs came out fighting with such spirit and courage. That first TD, one of the best you’ll ever see, set the tone, and their relatively unknown QB Foley playing against the almost legendary Brady played the game of this life. A couple of close calls by the referees – which I am not expert enough to have an opinion on so can only bow to their greater knowledge (though no doubt many Patriot fans won’t) – helped, but all in all, as a relative neutral, I have to give the honours to the Eagles as deserved winners.

Had I not incidentally seen it non TV, I would not have known what you mean. At least half of the world needs a little more context.
As for the flying part: I would have liked to do that yesterday, but it was a little too cold. Like an eagle is nice, but I don't have much of a runway. So it has to be more like a dragonfly.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

It's some strange slow-motion Rugby that they play briefly between ad breaks in the US, I think.
