The Master of His Domain

I just got back from the Seinfeld show. My life is complete. I suppose that really means I could just drop dead any minute.

The show was hilarious, of course. He even gave us a little treat at the end of the Q&A Encore by doing the only thing I’d specifically wanted to see all night: a ‘Hello, Newman’.

He mentioned the Iraq War and various other current events stuff, which would have been very out of character for Seinfeld during his previous stand-up, but he managed to do it without getting political–a rarity in the comedy world. He touched on the Abu Graib scandal:

I mean, even if you think you’re going to get away with it, what are you going to do with those pictures? Put ‘em right there next to the ski trip? ‘Sorry, could you take another? I don’t think it flashed…’ I think it’s just all that sand with no beach driving everyone in the middle east crazy over there.

I’d write more, but I’m both speechless (proseless?) and due to rise in 4 hours and 5 minutes for the next youth trip. Such is the life of an intern.
