ERISA and porn interact.

OK, maybe it's not TRUE porn.
- The Employee Retirement Income Security Act does not preempt a state law claim by the founder of Penthouse magazine alleging he is entitled to $1.5 million in severance benefits that went unpaid when the company that owns the magazine filed for bankruptcy, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York held July 20 (Guccione v. Bell, S.D.N.Y., No. 06 Civ. 492 (SHS), 7/20/06).
Granting Robert C. Guccione's action for severance benefits to state court, Judge Sidney H. Stein said Penthouse's severance plan was not governed by ERISA because it did not require ongoing administration but instead only called for a one-time lump-sum payment of benefits to Guccione.
Guccione alleged that as his former company, General Media Inc., slid into bankruptcy several of his former partners and employees "fraudulently froze him out of managing the company and lured him into making a series of financially disastrous transactions," according to the court.
Among other things, Guccione alleged that Penthouse Media Group Inc., the successor of General Media, breached an agreement to pay him $500,000 per year for 10 years. Guccione also alleged that Penthouse Media and others fraudulently induced him to support the company's bankruptcy reorganization plan by promising that Penthouse Media would engage Guccione as chairman emeritus for 10 years at a salary of $500,00 per year plus benefits totaling an additional $250,000 year.
In addition, Guccione alleged that from its inception in 1967 through its filing for bankruptcy, General Media maintained a policy for providing severance benefits in an amount equal to one month of salary for every year that an employee worked for the company 10 years or longer. Guccione alleged that under this policy, he was owed $1.5 million in severance benefits plus interest.

My favorite non-main recurring characters (besides Bookman - I agree, he can't be topped):
(1) Mr. Kruger
(2) Puddy
(3) Frank Costanza
(4) Jackie Chiles
(5) Bania
(6) Jimmy
(7) Jack Klompus
(8) Izzy Mendelbaum
(9) Kevin, Gene, Feldman, and Vargas
I just LOL'd thinking about Bookman...
Well, let me tell you something, funny boy. Y'know that little stamp, the one that says "New York Public Library"? Well that may not mean anything to you, but that means a lot to me. One whole hell of a lot. Sure, go ahead, laugh if you want to. I've seen your type before: Flashy, making the scene, flaunting convention. Yeah, I know what you're thinking. What's this guy making such a big stink about old library books? Well, let me give you a hint, junior. Maybe we can live without libraries, people like you and me. Maybe. Sure, we're too old to change the world, but what about that kid, sitting down, opening a book, right now, in a branch at the local library and finding drawings of pee-pees and wee-wees on the Cat in the Hat and the Five Chinese Brothers?
Doesn't HE deserve better? Look. If you think this is about overdue fines and missing books, you'd better think again. This is about that kid's right to read a book without getting his mind warped! Or: maybe that turns you on, Seinfeld; maybe that's how y'get your kicks. You and your good-time buddies. Well I got a flash for ya, joy-boy: Party time is over. Y'got seven days, Seinfeld. That is one week!

1. Bookman
2. Jackie Chiles
3. Puddy (although he's almost as regular as Newman)
4. K-Ooger!
5. Lloyd Braun (after he went nuts)
6. The Maestro
7. Jimmy
8. Mr. Pitt
9. Uncle Leo (Hello!)
10. George's parents-in-law

I hear you can get the same effect with some Bit-O-Honey candies and an air-conditioner.

Did 6 and 8 appear in more than 1 episode?

Agreed. Frank Costanza can't count. And we might as well take Puddy out too.

Lukas and Toby both sucked. "Penny Royal Tea" is Cobain sounding about as vulnerable as it gets; does not work with generic rock guy voice.

You know, I still get creeped out when I hear that acoustic Cobain version of Leadbelly's "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?" If there's a more riveting 4 and a half minutes of music out there, I haven't heard it. That blows the doors off Cash's version of "Hurt" that everyone thought was so powerful.*
*May also be that Leadbelly and Cobain are about 50X more talented than Trent Rezner.

Fuck that. Bookman could have popped up 100 times and if they gave him a monologue like the one at the end of the episode he was in, he would be hilarious every time.
And Steinbrenner wasn't that funny. It was the reactions to him that made the character.
