Hank, you were indeed the first to ring in so...you have the board, please select a category.

I'll take "Spiny Marsupials" for $200, Bloody.

The domes at the institute had a mildly erotic appearance for those of the male persuasion...

Yeah, I know. I was commenting on a part of the article that was being ignored in favor of talking about Seinfeld.

Duh! This is what the finale was all about

Duh, I thought the finale (the courtroom scenes, right?) was about cost cutting and cheating the viewers (and advertisers) that producers of long running boob tube shows do on a regular basis: save production costs (one cool million per principal actor, for example) by splicing together scenes from previously shown episodes and call it something like "the Fifth Anniversary Show", or in this case "Seinfeld Finale". (Although in this particular case they did engage the million dollar cast, but by confining all action to two stagesets - the courtroom and the holding cell - they still saved a bundle.) It's quite transparent, isn't it, which is why I think you'd have to strain to find any meaning in the dramatic wrapping that they put around such Frankenstein episodes, which only serves to allow them to string these clips together.

Jerry and George had dinner in a restaurant with the deaf blonde that Jerry had just picked up earlier. She said that she could read lips. George hatched a plan to take her to a party where she could tell him what his own ex-girlfriend was saying from afar. But at that restaurant, George wanted to test her abilities. He spotted another couple in distress in a nearby booth. He asked the deaf woman what was happening. She said that they seemed to be breaking up. The guy's exact words were: "it'not you, it's me".

The restaurant scene had some other choice bits, but the party scene was a masterpiece. It's worth owning.

Self-improvement book? You recommend switching some nonsense for other nonsense? What's wrong with the classics? Or a good history book? Or a political analysis book?

Yes...a self improvement book.

Obviosly you don't need to improve yourself......

Oh yeah..Classics.......I've read most of them.

And they do have some redeeming value...and History books do have value....But a political analysis book?

Here's waht you need to know about politics......if you ain't in power.....you have no power.

That's all you really need to analise about politics.

"From Elaine you learn that most women have little sense of humor and are only funny when extremely pissed off."

They should see Mrs. Exile when she's po'd. Nothing funny about that, I just grab the cat and hide in the closet until the crashing stops.
