On tonight's episode, March 19 1998 Kramer and Mickey compete over who can portrya the best disease. Kramer wins with his portrayla of having gonnorhea. Elaine is a waste! Her going to hell and acting like a demon is not funny. George is left alone with Mr. Krueger to finish a big deal after Leaving Mr. Krueger "wanting more" with his humor and leaving after he gets one big laugh in each meeting. The tractor story that Jerry wants to find out about with his girlfriend ends up with her telling Jerry that she got gonnorhea from a tractor. They say you can't get it from a tractor and she said that is what her boyfriend said she got it from b/c she was on the tractor all the time in her bathing suit. Jerry leaves teh room as George has in the "leave em wanting more" stance and says, "Thank you...goodnight!"
"The Burning"
Fans discuss the episode with mixed reactions, debating the humor of the disease competition and the tractor gonorrhea storyline, with some questioning why the opener recapped the plot.
uhh.. why did you tell us the story of the episode? we all saw it
thought this one was great... "and yeah I stole your jesus fish!".. that was sooooo damn funny I couldn't stop laughing!!
Didn't get the part about the old lady in Titanic lying.. or did they say Dying? not sure actually...
Kramer trading diseases with Micky was funny, with the makeup and all.. they went way all out on that one if you ask me..
Classic episode, hope the remaining 4 are as good!
Scott
Remaining 5, there are 5 episodes left, NBC screwed those commercials up

Indeed, and I have a new fave Puddy line, too:
"Ten and two, babe."

OK, I'll bite, what's "Ten and two"? Don't tell me twelve, either.

That's a line from David Puddy...it means when driving, keep both hands on the steering wheel at the positions of ten and two. Imagine your steering wheel is a clock...oh...I'm just being stupid now...

Ah yes, I recall now, thanks for the reminder. Keep those thumbs out.
Bollistic wrote in message ...
If you envision the steering wheel as an analog clock face, you put your hands at 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock for supposedly the best steering control and comfort, and thus the safest driving. At least, that's what they tell you in driver's ed.
Although, now that they have airbags in cars, they recommend "3 and 9" because you can break your arms if you hold the wheel at 10 and 2 and the airbag deploys. I heard that from "some newspaper" though, so it might just be one of those urban legends...

I died when Puddy was staring blankly on the couch and says "It feels like an Arby's night."

It's even funnier, now that you just mentioned it.

Thought it was great too! Loved George's plotline that was all about "leave them laughing" and "knowing when to leave", etc.
Seeing Puddy into Christian rock was kind of ironic, because wasn't he introduced to the series as a (New Jersey) Devils fan? Anyway, a pretty good episode. Loved Kramer's line about being typecast for gonorrhea.
The 10 p.m. repeat wasn't bad either, though the Festivus idea (an obvious holiday parody) didn't quite come off.
hey,
the general theme in this episode of "leave them laughing", "knowing when to leave" etc. was a great artistic move on the part of Seinfeld, metaphorically representing in the episode his reasons for calling this his last season..
btw, in what other episodes / plotlines has the dwarf guy (who goes with kramer to "act out" diseases at the hospital) appeared?

The Stand In Him and Kramer were standins for a soap opera
In The Wait Out Him and Kramer were acting partners and Kramer asked him to pretend to be a little kid he was baby sitting for who ran off.
dwarf guy? "hey,i prefer the term little person!" (actually it's vertically challenged). Mickey was in the episode with the shoe highteners,where kramer and him were stand-ins for a soap opera. Also he was in the episode where he was double-dating with kramer, but they couldn't decide which women they wanted. remember? (didn't mickey get married to one of the women? but in the other episode,(which i think was an earlier one)he said he had a wife and kid to feed(because he might get fired for the shoe highteners)). help me out on this

They also worked together in a mall as Santa and an Elf. Kramer started reading communist propoganda and sharing it with the kids so they got fired.
That was one of the funniest eps ever. When the kid started calling Kramer a Commie, I about died.
"Do you like Merlot?" "Mmm.. I love Merlot!" "I *live* for Merlot!!" I think you're wrong about him being married before, because if you remember correctly, he was getting hit on by that other little person. He may have been joking.
dwarf guy. lol

Because of the recurrent reference to "leave 'em laughing," I was wondering while watching, if this show was filmed soon after Jerry's announcement of the show's ending, and held for awhile. I know they hold some episodes for sweeps periods, and others for other reasons. Anyone know?

Do you think that George (in the last night episode) did the same thing of what the real Jerry Seinfeld done in real life.
He's leaving after he has made somes good joke.
That's all Good Night
