Mr. Lippman: It's come to my attention that you and the cleaning woman have engaged in sexual intercourse on the desk in your office. Is that correct?

George Costanza: Who said that?

Mr. Lippman: She did.

George Costanza:

[pause] Was that wrong? Should I not have done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon... you know, cause I've worked in a lot of offices, and I tell you, people do that all the time.

Mr. Lippman: You're fired!

George Costanza: Well, you didn't have to say it like that.

Is life one big Seinfeld Episode or is Seinfeld True Life put to a sound track?

My goodness. He could *BE* one Hell of a speed-bump all on his own. No need to install any artificial ones. :P

A friend of mine has a 3 wheel Harley and he can’t ride over them. The first time he ever encountered a parking lot speed bump it tore off his exhaust system.....

'One of the things that I find troubling is the types of people that are held up by many as "heroes".'

I agree completely. The great heroes are people who would be lost in the crowd and whose heroism, for the most part, is unrecognized.

Agreed, the people I have met personally who I would be inclined to view as a “hero” are people who would never stick out in a crowd.

Agree.

Non partisan elections. The guy has been elected and re-elected seven times since 2000. The entire 5 man council is a bunch of old white men.
