Again, what was the name of this episode, where Jerry's girlfriend gets gonorrhea from a tractor ? Kramer and Mickey act out diseases at John Hopkins. Jerry is annoyed that his girlfriend leaves messages starting "Its me".

It's called "The Burning". Ninth season, aired 3/19/98. I have a question I've always wondered about this episode... I love Kramer's std story. But what is a coquettish habedish (sp.) ?

It is actually 'a coquettish haberdasher'.

'Coquettish' is akin to flirtatious, I'd say. Haberdasher is a clothes-seller.

It's more specific than that. A haberdasher sells hats.
