    am to be done reading this book. I would not say that the information was disagreeable for the most part, but I am really tired of Johnson. I don’t know if any of you remember the show “Seinfeld”, well in my mind whenever I say Johnson’s name I am saying it with the same tone and attitude as in the show Seinfeld when they would said “Newman”. Anyway, if you do not get the reference, I apologize, I might be a bit older than most, but you could probably YouTube it. That said this was definitely a finale

As for the speed, I think they talked so fast that I can hardly understand what they said at the first time, but after

    value. For example, the cast of William Wycherley’s Restoration comedy, “The Country Wife,” consists of some central characters that are strikingly similar to those in the cast of the modern situation comedy, Seinfeld.

Because it's like you were a comedy team and now there’s a third person, it kind of throws off the timing.” (0:00-0:34) This leads to the entire episode where everyone is dating someone, and the

    What's the deal with...no, this post is not about to launch into a Seinfeld routine.  However, Jerry had something in common with  another observational humorist, Will Rogers.

He was an Oklahoma Indian whose parents were partly of Cherokee descent, a cowboy, and entertainer, movie and Broadway star, writer, speaker, comedian, philosopher, and world figure.
