Remember this Seinfeld episode?

[lame54]

George, Jerry and Kramer are at the coffee shop.

George: Hey, when you order from the waitress, get her to point to the menu. I
want to see what finger she uses.

Jerry: Uh, say, I wanted a side order of fruit but I didn't see it on the men

Waitress: Oh, you're getting it (pointing to menu with index finger), it comes
with your breakfast special.

Jerry: Right you are.

George: I didn't get the special, but I'd also like the fresh fruit too.

Waitress (scratching cheek with middle finger): I'll check.

George (after waitress walks away): I don't believe it, she did it again!

Jerry: Oh, she had an itch.

George: She had an itch. She could have used any one of those fingers. That
finger was meant for me.

Kramer (laughing): Yeah, she knew what she was doing.

[Cant trust em]

1. Please tell me that it's just us internet wing nuts who are talking about this

I don't have cable, so I don't see much TV news. But if they are actually talking about this I will be highly disappointed. Sorrier than the debate, if it's true.

3. Fox News and the right-wing blogs are talking about it

So look for the mainstream media to pick up on it and ask about it at the next debate.

4. I hope they do.

It will only further illustrate how pathetic our media has become.

2. I love Sienfeld

This is what I say to political hacks trying to manufacture another controversy.....

5. I propose a new nickname for fauxrage-mongers on DU:

"Costanzas"

7. I'ts somewhat related to the "no pick!" episode

(Jerry's car - BMW)

(Jerry scratching right side of nose. Tia in a cab sees him, in shock. Cab pulls away.)

JERRY: No, No, No, No, Oh, No.

(Jerry's Apartment)

(Jerry hanging up phone)

JERRY: Well every day for the past four days she hasn't returned one call.

GEORGE: Was it a scratch or a pick?

JERRY: It was a scratch.

GEORGE: Hey. It's me.

JERRY: Don't you think I know the difference between a pick and a scratch?

(Buzzer)

JERRY: Yeah?

ELAINE: (OC) It's me.

JERRY: Come on up.

GEORGE: Was there any nostril penetration?

JERRY: There may have been some incidental penetration. But from her angle she was in no position to make the call.

GEORGE: So let's say in her mind she witnessed a pick. Okay, so then what?

JERRY: Is that so unforgivable? Is that like breaking a commandment? Did God say to Moses thou shalt not pick?

GEORGE: I guarantee you that Moses was a picker. You wander throughh the desert for forty years with that dry air. ... You telling me you're not going to have occasion to clean house a little bit.

8. Let's hope Obama doesn't pick - then he will be in real trouble

[Vinca]
