Here is a toughy. Anyone know what the small print says on the H&H Bagel aprons worn in the Festivus episode where Kramer goes back to work? I cant make it out.

Heck yes, they're real. They're factory is right across the street from the U.S.S. Intrepid museum on the West side. They have a little store in front where you can get fresh bagels.

that is why I thought of it. Is the Intrepid an old warship? I have never been to the East.

Yes it is a retired air craft carrier....and yes H&H is real.

I watched the episode last night, "The Strike," and I gotta tell you, it's not one of my favorites.

Once the novelty of the idea of Festivus wears off, you can see how weak the storyline is:

Elaine going all over town to get her sub card, acting more like George or Kramer would, then herself.

Jerry and the two-face girl? How many plays on the one thing wrong with a girl have they done before?

And George trying to be cheap by making up phony donation gifts? Not exactly a great set-up or payoff on that one.

I don't know, done right maybe all those things could work, but it all seemed more premise and no substance.

Not very funny.

I guess it depends on how many times you see it. I recall I was in such shock that Kramer had a job that I did not think about all the story lines the first times I saw it. I didnt like the 2 face girl story but I thought Elaine's number at the OTB place was funny. Also Krueger recognizing Kramer as the doctor and drinking out of a flask were funny.

interesting take. I still think it's humourous because of Frank Costanza's behavior.

I agree. Frank was the strongest part of the episode.
