Zinged! I'm honored.

The Braverman who matches up best with me in real life: Joel, even down to having the occasional smack down with the in-laws, staying home with the kids at one point and he and Julia even have the same toy kitchen set we have.

Haha. Reading replies to deleted comments is kinda like reading Garfield without Garfield. Unintentional comedy gold!

I know he wrote the face painter one ("Gotta support the team") but I had to check and IMDB says he also got credit for "the soup" episode where Bania tries to get Jerry to buy him a real meal in exchange for the suit. Not too shabby. Although, I have to wonder about cashing in on the Seinfeld "brand" in 2012, but

Who would have guessed that the girl who played Elaine would go on to have the best career of any of the leads on that show?  (Remember, Alexander came out of the gates the strongest. We see how that went.) Very well deserved win for JL-D.

Indeed. You beat me to this by 17 minutes, but that revelation was by far the most startling thing about that whole story. Who doesn't send Jenn Wasner flowers? Time to raise the standards a little, rock star Jenn Wasner. I think this is your cue Mexican Blade Runner…

This is kind of a weird question since it seems like there are dozens that apply, without even really thinking about it. I guess its harder to come up with adult themed or R-rated movies that don't focus on sex or violence. All The President's Men is a great suggestion. The Straight Story is awesome though.  My

Nostalgia strikes again: No SNL list is complete to me without the Paul McCartney episode where Farley interviews him. Sandler's "Red Hooded Sweatshirt" with help from Paul and Linda.  Warm and fuzzy memories…

The Biz appears regularly on the show, as does Mothersbaugh, and Jack Black has guest starred. The bottom line here is that Christian Jacobs is basically the best connected Mormon/former 3rd-wave ska singer/tv producer in LA, so the show's existence basically derives from called-in favors. It's a good show, really.

The Dead Do not Improve is (also) a phrase that comes up when sports nerds talk about Hall of Fame credentials of current players, meaning you can't keep new guys out just because the old guys played in a more talent rich, PED-free league and/or you can't necessarily rank the new guys ahead of all the old guys even if
