I must agree that tonight's Seinfeld was one of the best ever. I do have a question however. When Elaine left the TV Guide with the man on the subway he looked at the address label to find F. Costanza and his address. I happened to freeze frame my VCR this mornig to notice that you get a good glympse of the whole address. Except for the zip code I can see the address as:

1344 Queens Blvd. Flushing, NY 11***

If anyone lives in Flushing can you tell me where this address leads to. It may the house George's parents' is modeled after.

Did anybody else think they got the *perfect* actor for the TV Guide nerd character? He did a great job! Have we seen him anywhere before?

Since I was brought up in Queens, I can tell you that Queens Blvd is a large 4-6 lane business thorough-fare with commercial businesses lining the street. It is defintely not residential as portrayed in the show. My hunch when viewing the show was that the Costanza household was located in the vicinity of Kew Gardens, Queens.
