This week's entry into the Seinfeld Lexicon: The Tap Honorable Mention: Was it like the Rosati?

The opening dialogue was probably the best part of the show. I was slightly disappointed that they mentioned orgasms, especially since all the promos implied that the censors would not allow it, but I guess not mentioning it has already been used.

I think they also should have spaced out the scene with Elaine's co-worker and Kramer's line. When they were right on top of each other, you kind of expected the second line. Also, I would have liked to see Kramer "enjoying" a mango or something with his girlfriend.

As always, though, the writing was like buttuh.

Finally, more GOOD NEWS!!!

According to this week's Entertainment Weekly, after publishing the original Sein-Language, which incorrectly identified the Pez character as Fred Flint- stone and receiving thousands of correction letters, they decided that there was a huge market out there. So they published ...The Seinfeld Companion! It will contain a more extensive Lexicon, character profiles, episode guides, and basically everything currently in our FAQ sheet :) But should be good reading anyway.

This is a pretty generic .sig, huh? Scott Chupack [email]
