We figure with life after death, you've got basically one shot to get it right. So for our buck, we're holding out for the advanced guide. But you can meet the author at a signing and discussion at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 14, at Borders Books & Music, 4235 N. Oracle Road. Call 292-1331 for more information.
The cafeteria at Amherst College, a small, private liberal arts
school, has devised a special menu in Seinfeld's honor:
For a reasonable $9.95 plus tax, students can order the "Seinfeld
Survival Sack" to go. It includes (we quote from the brochure):
"The Famous Lobster Bisque (Soup Nazi would be proud); One
Really Big Salad (Elaine's Favorite); Pasta Primavera (Poppie's
Secret Recipe); Not One, But Two Slices of Marble Rye (Schnitzer's
Eat Your Heart Out); A Big Black & White Cookie (Look to the
Cookie); and A Muffin Top (Top of the Muffin to You)."
