Seinfeld away message trivia game answers

Answers to past questions:

10/22: What type of fabric was the sweater that George gave the cleaning lady? Cashmere
10/23: How long was Elaine banned from the Soup Nazi's store? How did she drive him out of business?
Banned 1 year. She found the recipe in an armoire and publishes it, causing the soup nazi to give away all his soup and go back to Argentina.
10/24: What is Kramer's first name? What type of pasta is Jerry? What was "the move" that Kramer stole from Frank and "used" on Estelle?
Cosmo. Fucilli (because he's silly!). Kramer stopped short.

10/25: How does Eric the clown put out the fire? What is the comedian's ultimate revenge? How does Kramer get the severed toe to the hospital? Accurately describe how Kramer got it there.
Eric put out the fire with his big shoes. Heckle the Heckler. He puts it in a Cracker Jack box filled with ice. He takes the bus to the hospital, but a highjacker was on the bus and attacked him. He punched him and knocked him out but the bus driver passed out from the commotion so he drove the bus. The highjacker then wakes up and starts choking Kramer while he's driving the bus. He fights him off and kicks him off at the next bus stop. He makes all the stops because "people kept ringing the bell". LOL.

10/26: What is "it" that Kramer is talking about? What is the mystery woman's name that rhymes with a part of the female anatomy? How did George come across the money and what did he spend it on?
Kramer is talking about a Junior Mint. The mystery woman's name is Delores (I'll leave it up to you to figure out what it rhymes with). George got $1900 from a savings account he had since he was a kid. He bought artwork from Elaine's friend who he thought was going to die and thought the artwork would be priceless.
10/27: What is so special about the pen Jack gave Jerry? What did Kramer feed the horse before giving a ride to George's girlfriend's parents?
It can write upside down. Beef-a-reeno.

When was the last time you bought a CD?

Probably a long time ago huh? And if it wasn't, I'm sure you haven't bought as many CDs as you used to. Let's face it, MP3 is the way to go. How many people do you see around campus walking around with the white earbuds and the white (or black now) circle in the middle of their MP3 player? Practically everyone. It is just another shift in technology, yet the RIAA fails to recognize this.

If you haven't heard, the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) have been slapping lawsuits on random music downloaders across America in an attempt to intimidate the public from downloading pirated music from P2P clients such as Kazaa, Limewire, Bearshare, etc. But to me, it seems like the RIAA is just finding a scapegoat to their recent decline in sales, and suing the public will not help their cause, as I will try to show.

First off, the methods the RIAA uses to find these downloaders is a breach of privacy and highly ineffective. The RIAA basically goes to your ISP (the people who provide your internet) and asks for the names of people using suspected IP addresses. This is ineffective because many people share computers, and if someone downloads on another person's computer, the RIAA will have the wrong person, and thus screw the guy over, even though he didn't download anything. Also, an IP address does not say anything about age or gender. For example, the RIAA sued a 41 year old disabled woman for downloading gangster rap at 4:30am. The RIAA also sued a 12 year old girl for downloading music on Kazaa even though she paid the one time fee.

Secondly, even though the RIAA has gone on this rampage of mass lawsuits, it will not stop people from downloading music. At Napster's peak, there were 70 million users registered. After the RIAA successfully shut down Napster, Kazaa came along and at its peak, had 140 million users. This leads us to believe that even though they shut down a major P2P client, it will only cause more people to download.

Even though CD sales has gone down since 1999 with the introduction of Napster, is it really because of downloading? In 1999, the DOW Jones average was at its peak, around 12,000. Since then, the average has dropped nearly 25%, with the lowest being 8,000. It is at about 10,000 right now. Now, CDs are an elastic good, meaning a change in costs will result in a big change in quantity purchased. With the stock market going down, people will be less likely to spend money on materialistic things such as CDs.

Thus, in conclusion, fuck the RIAA.

Are we still in the 1950's?

It's been 38 years since Martin Luther King Jr. died for equality among the races in America. We have come a long way, "colored" people piss in the same bathroom, eat in the same section, go to class with, and party with white people. But have we lived up to MLK's dream? Is all the hatred and inferiority gone from American society? Not yet.

Just take 2 examples from the University of Delaware.

A hispanic speaker who happens to be a former criminal spoke at the University of Delaware about his past and how he has made a complete turnaround. Basically, he is positively affecting the world. However, a Review writer (for those of you who aren't at UD, the Review is the school newspaper) decided to focus more on the speaker's past, about what crimes he committed, his incarceration, instead of talking about all his good deeds. Why is there a negative portrayal of the speaker? Why not talk about what he's done SINCE being in jail? I wish I had the article to post here, but the website is down (hmmm...)

This 2nd incident is just fucked up. A black man was beaten by some white males and was stripped of his clothing. His clothing was set ablaze in the middle of Chapel Street. One of my students (This Coming From A Professor On Campus), a white male, was passing by the scene when he saw 10 men shouting "We hate niggers! Fuck niggers!". He also saw the burning clothing and put out the fire and confronted the shouting men. He was then burned by a cigarette and beaten until blood was pouring out of his nose. His roommate was somehow able to drag him to safety.

So, though we have made progress since 1964, there are STILL people who have no idea how to interact with minorities. What is sad is that most of those people never lived through the civil rights movement so they have NO EXCUSE to be racist. Not that there was any excuse for it to begin with.

I would like to commend President Roselle and the UD community for the effort that they have put in to encourage more diversity among the community. Minority overnight, diversity training for incoming freshman, and trying to get more minorities to attend the school is great for spreading diversity to a rather non-diverse campus. Though, I feel there are several actions the University can take that will further move diversity awareness among the UD Community.

First, there should be diversity training for EVERYBODY (not just incoming freshman). And there should be diversity training at the start of every semester. More exposure to diversity may lead to more awareness among the community and less of these incidents.

Secondly, there should be more exposure to multicultural events in the Review. So often do I see a multicultural article placed in the way back of the newspaper in a small corner. Do we really need an article explaining what Facebook is? Do we really need to know that Dean Apple's mustache was on the line because of a bet he made with a few ROTC guys?

Lastly, we need better screening of people coming into the University. Perhaps have them fill out a diversity questionnaire or go through an interviewing process with a minority professor.

Now I understand this will not solve the problem completely. I understand that a 1 hour diversity training class will not change 18 years of a way of thinking and a philosophy. And yes, I do realize the problem extends WAY beyond what Roselle and the University is able to do. But this is just a step in the right direction. In my dream, I see the University going through all these steps towards diversity awareness, actually making a diffrence in some people's lives, and with the education they get at this school, they go on and make a difference in the world. And maybe, just maybe, we can stop living in the past and build for the future.
