Remember when a debate over taping and trading episodes seemed important?

Remember when people chose sides over whether Kramer's coma statements were a mistake or somehow consistant?

Remember when we would all roll our eyes and heave a sigh when a newbie would ask about the Green Day song? or Newman's first name? Jerry's apartment number? George's religion? Kramer's income?

Remember every trivial pain-in-the-ass post that would reach new depths of banality and make you want to sell your computer?

Can we go back? Soon?

What's the song playing while Kramer and Newman are making sausages? I like that song. Alot.

Hehe, only teasin' of course. Just thought I'd start the ball rolling for a return to normalcy... ;-)

Why is Steinbrenner only shown from the back? Does it have anything to do with Wilson on "Home Improvement"?

What rhymes with Dolores?

Does anyone have episodes blah blah blah.........., I need them to complete my collection yada yada yada..........., Then I can burn them to CD in Gigawatt format, label them, index them, and lock them away in a safe place for ten years, stumble across them one day while looking for a spare light globe, and throw them in the bin, because of course I have the complete series on DVD now. Actually I don't watch the DVD's either because I can still watch Seinfeld every other on cable!

( Before throwing them out I remember that I never managed to get The Puerto Rican Day, despite many postings to relevant NG's)

But at least it gave me a reason to keep on postin'.

Hey, does anyone know the female parts of the anatomy that Jerry and George make up rhymes to? I can figure out Regina (ObUK) but I'm at a loss for the others.

It's a Hammond Organ version of the Peggy Lee song "Manana (Is Soon Enough For Me)", performed by Jackie Davis, available on Capitol Records Ultra-Lounge series, volume 2, "Mambo Fever". Amazon used to have a sound sample, but they had removed it last time I checked.

As Art, John, and others have pointed out, there a few questions that have been hashed out as far as they possibly can on this newsgroup.

Compilations of USA:an pre/post WWII era novelty tunes often include the Peggy Lee version. I have a two volume set entitled "Mairzy Dotes" from the Good Music Company that features it.

Ok then, here's a question which is probably a newbie one:

Why is George teasingly called Biff sometimes by Jerry?

I REALLY don't know and would REALLY like to be enlightend :-)

Biff Loman is the son of Willy Loman, the main character in the play, Death Of a Salesman. The play was running and a big hit on Broadway during the time the early Seinfeld episodes were written. In the pla,y Biff is an out-of-work loser.

It may seem ironic, but the quirkiness of Seinfeld (especially the clip shows and the finale) made things a bit "normal" for me last night (my local channel showed the four episodes that were pre-empted from Tuesday).

NYC has not shown an episode since Monday [The Clip Show I].

Philadelphia showed [The Clip Show II] on Thursday and [The Bookstore] on Friday.

in [The Bookstore] they removed the audio when Elaine says, "We made out at the table like our plane was going down."

Okay. My bad. It just occurred to me that [The Finale I] did have a disturbing near-plane-crash scene.

This may be a bit off topic (since it does not involve the TV show) but I attended Jerry's comedy show in Charlotte, NC last night-Normalcy was the day. Not a mention of the WTC in the opening, during the act, only the very last line (he came back out for an encore and took questions from the audience) when asked what he thought about the events his response was along the lines "that we should rebuild the Trade Centers only this time have three buildings and give them names - Go, F**k, and Yourselves. End of show. If he comes to your town go see the show-it is GREAT!!!

In the black and white cookie episode Jerry says that his last vomit was in 1981. In the episode I saw tonight, The Dog one, Elaine and George talk about how funny it is when Jerry vomits. But Elaine also says that she'd been in NY for 6 years since 84! So with this in mind it would be impossible for her to see him vomit. I'm glad I got to the bottom of this one.
