"Rosebud" is the episode of the Simpsons where Mr. Burns wants to be reunited with his teddy bear from when he was a child.

In one scene, Homer wanted as his reward "$1 million and three Hawaiian Islands (good ones, not the leper one)".

If you had to guess, which three of the Islands would you guess he chose? (this helps if you have a good knowledge of the geography of Hawaii)

Well the most valuable real estate is on Oahu.

The biggest island is the "Big Island" actually named Hawaii.

The one that has the most fun name to say is Molokai.

And there sevaral other big main islands. And there is a long string of small unihabited islands stretching a couple thousand miles out to Midway.

Ill guess Oahu.

Unfortunately, Molokai is "the leper one".

I will have to say Kahoolawe, because of its use in military exercises. Homer is probably hoping that Stupid Flanders will step on one of the many unexploded ordnances on the island.
