we were talking last night

about understated comedy which i think was what made Peter Sellers a master without peer in comedy. I recalled a Seinfield episode when Elaine and Jerry were looking for Kramer in the picture theatre complex and Jerry asks the attendant if he had a seen a guy sort of looks like horse go in. You see the guy thinking and then Elaine whacks Jerry and says Oh Jerry he does not look like a horse and you are about to think oh good, someone is about to defend poor Kramer when Elaine goes on - more like a moose I'd say. So just when you think a compliment is coming, you get a double whammy of insult. Oh he does not look like a moose. His hair is much more like a horse and his nose is definitely horsey looking. Yair but his lips and his eyes Jerry they're much more like a moose. So here in the background is the theatre attendant dude trying to make sense of what this friend looks like. Kramer would be insulted if you said he looked like a horse. Well it's better to look like a horse than a moose. I hope I can get some work to do soon - I'm getting tired of just mucking around filling up my blogspot when I ought to be doing something constructive for my assignment. There goes another earth tremor.
