Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Seinfeld debuted on July 17, 1989, and the second episode didn't appear for almost ten months. Talk about a show that nobody watched.<br /><br />It lasted nine seasons if you consider the pilot season 1.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Barry, I am drawing from memory but I believe the first show was the "Pony" incident? The show was awful when compared with the later seasons.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Jeff- the Pony Remark was episode 7, and it introduced two new characters- Barney Martin as Morty Seinfeld, and Len Lesser as Uncle Leo. I actually think it was a good one.<br /><br />The first episode was originally called The Seinfeld Chronicles, but it is now referred to as He Said, She Said. Jerry invites an old girl friend for the weekend and he can't figure out if it will be romantic or platonic. He finds out she is engaged and that settles it. That was the pilot. Michael Richards character was Kessler in that episode only.

Posted By: <b>Jim VB</b><p>I don't know if this is true or not, but the way I hear it, Spitzer used to just pick up his hookers on the streets (like most good New Yorkers) but...<br /><br />He began monitoring this board (probably to keep an eye on Lichtman). He became enthralled by the gospel of the Dorskind Group. He saw opportunity where others did not. He decided to pay more for the finest quality available. Whilst this was going on, the FBI was listening. <br /><br /><br />Thank God they caught him before he started taking out his own full page "want" ads.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Jim, good analysis. Unfortunately, Spitzer got me in the end. Because of his boorish behavior, I am required to wake up early tomorrow morning to do repetitive interviews about him. He's such a selfish bastard that he is now costing me my sleep. He'll pay for it tomorrow morning, however.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Well, it has been a fun day -- I did WINS and WABC radio interviews in the morning, the Michael Reagan radio show tonight and some TV tomorrow including a Canadian show. Basically, I provided some background on Spitzer and what an incredibly judgmental and unforgiving prosecutor he was, who tried cases in the media in order to boost his career. I was especially disgusted that he made his poor wife attend the press conference with him yesterday. My feeling was that since he did this to himself -- and humiliated her by doing it -- the least he could have done was allow his wife to sit this one out. I did point out, however, that this is a man who is truly dedicated to the State of NY because, after all, he refused to sample the hookers of any other state when he traveled out of town and insisted that only NY product be provided to him.

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Jeff,<br /> I have never heard anything good about the "Gov", but I have heard plenty of good things about the "Lt Gov" from almost everyone. Your thoughts?<br /><br /> Be well Brian<br /><br />PS How can this guy think he can stay in office??

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Brian, he's completely delusional. He actually thought that the public would forgive him -- which is absurd considering a) he barely barked out an apology during his 30 second press conference yesterday; and b) his approval rating was about 35% BEFORE this news hit. Apparently he's using his one bargaining chip left -- resigning the governorship -- in a negotiation with the feds on criminal charges. It's also come out that he spent upwards of 80K on hookers and liked to have sex without a condom. Not sure that a guy with judgment like this is fit to be a local dogcatcher let alone Governor of NY.

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Jeff,<br /> Thanks for the info... What's your take on his replacement?<br /><br /> Be well Brian<br /><br /><br />PS What does "House" say: Everybody lies....<br /><br /><br /> If I hurt my family this way I would'nt be able to show my face in town much less on TV.... and trying to defend it would be beyond my scope.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Brian, there's not much known about Patterson other than the fact that he is legally blind. A Lt. Gov. in NY is never thought of as a realistic major political power; it's really just a minor job -- until now, of course.<br /><br />As for Spitzer's inability to be embarrassed, this is what happens I suppose when your parents give you everything in life from Day 1. Arrogrance, entitlement and never having to say you're sorry. I would think that considering he's destroyed his family, humiliated his wife and has zero politcal future, the prudent thing to do was to resign immediately and work on gaining the trust of his family back. But who's to say what is in the mind of a guy who spends half a Wagner on hookers and doesn't like to wear condoms with them?

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>80K on hookers...I don't care if Marilyn Monroe rose from the dead, it's not worth it. He could have started a very nice T206 set and had some change left over.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Brian -- yes, twins and a just-finished trial. Good luck as well in a few weeks but I don't think you'll need it this year.<br /><br />Barry, isn't it funny that whenever we hear of a large sum of money we immediately computer what type and how many cards we could buy with the amount?

As she is rich and will soon be available, I'm thinking that this might be a good time for Mike (hi, Mike) to be hitting the upper East Side bars-- Cougar patrol and all that...<br /><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br />
