    I'm watching the Merv Griffin Show episode and this dialog caught me:

    Jerry: Wow!
    Celia: Oh yeah the toys.
    Jerry: Where did you get all these?
    Celia: My dad was a collector. I inherited them after he died from a long and painful bout ...
    Jerry: Super bowl! Hey, an original G. I. Joe. With a full frogman suit.
    Celia: Jerry, what are you doing?
    Jerry: I'm putting this on him and we're going to the sink.

    And later ...

    Elaine: Mr. Peterman, here are these pages that you wanted.
    Peterman: One moment. I'm reading the most fascinating article on the most fascinating people of the
    year. Annnnnd done.

    A great episode.

    "I'm hit!"
    "When you control the mail, you control ... information!"
    "I like to think I have a little grace."

    The list could go on ...

    I always thought this was pretty funny (from the Puffy Shirt episode):

    (George hands the last of the items to her, she takes them from him, then starts to admire his hand)

    WOMAN: Hmm..

    GEORGE: What?

    WOMAN: (Looking at both his hands intensely) Your hands.

    GEORGE: What about them?

    WOMAN: They're quite exquisite!

    GEORGE: They are?

    WOMAN: (Mesmerized) Extraordinary! Have you ever done any hand modeling?

    GEORGE: Hand modeling? (Shakes his head 'No')

    WOMAN: (Fishes a card out of her purse, then hands it to George) Here's my card. Why don't you, uh, give me a call? (Walks off)

    Two favorites:

    "You can't break up with me - I have hand!"
    "And you're going to need it."


    And, the one that kills me every time -- and I have no idea why - Is Frank Costanza translating what the Korean girl's father said when Frank refused to take off his shoes due to an "odor problem":

    "This guy... this is not my kind of guy."

    One of my favorite Frank lines:

    Estelle (crying): I can't believe it, he was so young. How could this have happened?
    Steinbrenner: Well, he'd been logging some pretty heavy hours, first one in in the morning, last one to leave at night. That kid was a human dynamo.
    Estelle: Are you sure you're talking about George?
    Steinbrenner: You are Mr. and Mrs. Costanza?
    Frank (yelling): What the hell did you trade Jay Buhner for?!? He had 30 home runs, over 100 RBIs last year, he's got a rocket for an arm, you don't know what the hell you're doin'!!
    Steinbrenner: Well, Buener was a good prospect, no question about it. But my baseball people love Ken Phelps' bat. They kept saying 'Ken Phelps , Ken Phelps'.

    Of course I smell it. What do you think, I'm hard of smelling?

    Oh, the Mutant B-O. ...

    I'm watching The Slicer now.

    Elaine: Wow, can I borrow that thing for a while?
    Kramer: Oh no, I don't think so.
    Elaine: Why not?
    Kramer: Well, you're not checked at on it.
    Elaine: What do I have to know?
    Kramer: Well, where the meat goes?
    Elaine: Right there.
    Kramer: Where do you turn it on?
    Elaine: Right there.
    Kramer: But where does the meat go?

    We can go ahead and shut this thread down. Nothing beats that episode.

    And Moddy, why don't you fly into Evansville on Aug. 2 and have some beers with me and Sportschick?

    You know I'm good for the first round or three.

    You, uh, beat me to it.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.
