George's girlfriend has mononucleosis and he can't have sex with her for six weeks. Elaine's met a doctor who's almost gotten his license to practice. Jerry agrees to appear at career day at his former junior high school, first he is bumped and then there is a fire drill. Kramer lights up a cigar in Monk's and is asked to leave. He meets others on the street who face his dilemma so he opens up his apartment as a smoking lounge. Jerry's agent gets him an assembly at the school. George's lack of sex makes his mind sharper. Elaine learns how much her doctor boyfriend doesn't know about medicine. She uses George's technique to help him study to get his license, but in the process she becomes an idiot. Jerry struggles to figure out how to fill two hours in front of a junior high crowd. George uses his new found intellect to give batting advice, speaks Portuguese and prepares a presentation for Jerry's assembly. Kramer sees his lawyer about a case against the tobacco company, smoking has destroyed his looks. He gets a settlement without Jackie's input. George calculates the odds of scoring with a Portuguese waitress. Elaine's boyfriend gets his license and leaves her sexless.

b: 21-Nov-96 pc: 809 w: Steve Koren d: Andy Ackerman

NOTE: When George orders lunch from the Portuguese waitress in Portuguese he orders Elaine an "Ensalade Grande". Which in any language is a "Big Salad", a reference back to that 6th season episode "The Big Salad".

OK, I had something weird happen with one of my credit cards. On the 18th, I made a sizeable online payment. The day before and the day after, I made fairly big ticket purchases. I got a call at home for "suspicious activity on my card" and my card was frozen until I called back and confirmed that the charges were mine. How they have not figured out that I'm a compulsive shopper, lord only knows. I called back, and all has been well, I've been charging away. Now, it's ten days later and the credit has shown up on my credit account, but THERE HAS BEEN NO corresponding deduction from my bank account. Usually, the money comes out of my checking account within 3 days of me paying online and always happens before the credit is "freed up" on my credit card. So, do I call them and tell them that there has been no deduction from my checking account, or do I let them figure it out (if they do????)…I'm thinking something about them freezing the account the day after I made the payment somehow sent the EFT into the ether somewhere, never to be discovered again until they audit themselves…I know what I'm going to do, but wonder what others would do if faced with the same situation?????

You're only asking for a double billing if you call them. And that's more of a hassle to sort out.

If you have a credit on your bill and a confirmation of the payment from teh CC co., why do anything other than keep in mind you have a big debit coming at some point?

How can you tell they are from Montreal? All Canadian cities look the same. Or maybe I mean all Canadians look the same. Not sure.

Who the fuck thinks that this is actually a news story? The IRS Regs on income are about as simple as you can fucking get. I'm starting to believe all the carping about the mainstream media if they think that this is a fucking news story.

By the way, Sunday's episode of Arrested Development is some of the funniest TV I have ever seen. It's a fucking crime that this show is about to be cancelled and on its last legs and the rest of the bullshit on TV is doing ok.

It's set to be cancelled? It's problem is that it's too genius for the mainstream. Apparently everyone understands eating snakes, so that's a ratings bonanza. Quirky shows apparently go nowhere.

That's just an assumption, but it hasn't done well and barely made it into this season, and they've played two new episodes in one night a few times. You can probably find more info over Google, or maybe str8 has heard something while shaking his dick.

That's all I can think of for now.

I thought that was Brownsville Station? If I'm right, I'm sure it's been noted by now. But I'm the Wonk; I can do this.

I think we need a picture of Jason Bateman to evaluate.
