Absolutely, do not let it run past 00:02:12. The New York Health Club. Jerry, Kramer and George are getting dressed George: " That guy was amazing, he could dunk & he was my height. What was his name again?" Jerry: "Jimmy" George: "Jimmy, right." Jerry: "I dunno how you could forget . He kept referring to himself in the third person. "Jimmy's under the boards. Jimmy's in the open. Jimmy makes the shot." George: "Ah! your just mad 'cause we beat ya." Kramer: "Jerry it's my fault. I couldn't make a shot. These losses they stay with me. They fester Jerry. Now this is gonna plague me." Jimmy walks in George: "HEY! JIMMY!!! Ha, ha, ha........Great game." Jimmy: "OH yeah.......Jimmy played pretty good." George: "Hey you know , I felt we had like a synergy out there, you know, like we were really helping each other." Kramer: "What d' you got there?" Jimmy: "These?" Kramer: "Yeah" Jimmy: "These are Jimmy's training shoes." George: "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! I've seen these...they sorta ...they make your legs...stronger." Jimmy: "Oh yeah!

George: Where d' you get 'em?" Jimmy: "Jimmy sells 'em." George: "You sell them?" Jimmy: "Oh yeah! But Jimmy's all out right now. Moving to Manhattan set Jimmy back a bit." George: "Hey listen, let me give you my card. It's got my home number on it. I want to buy the first pair when the next shipment comes in." Jimmy: "All right" George: "All right Jimmy, good talking to ya." Jimmy liked to talk about himself in the third person. Rather than saying I or me, he’d call himself Jimmy. Did you ever know someone who did that? Sermon, 2009-09-06, Who Do You Say the Son of Man Is? 2 Actually Jesus did that? Kind of. Jesus didn’t go around saying things like “Jesus doesn’t like hypocrites.” Or “Jesus is gonna rise again someday.” But, when he would talk about himself, he often wouldn’t say “I,” He would refer to himself as the Son of Man. He said things like Matthew 20:28 (All on the same slide) “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Who’s the Son of Man Jesus? You know. Luke 5:24 “But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins....” He said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” Who can forgive sins Jesus? The one who makes people walk? Why that’s . you. Luke 24:7 “The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.” Is that gonna happen to you, Jesus? You are the Son of Man? Actually Jesus refers to himself as the Son of Man 77 times in the New Testament Gospels. He uses Son of Man instead of saying “I.” He doesn’t say, “I must be delivered into the hands of sinful men.” He says “The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men” And he doesn’t refer to himself by any other title or name more than a couple times. This is who Jesus says He is. By an overwhelming margin. So what does He mean by it? Why does he call himself the Son of Man? I had the question posed to me in an email by someone who attends our church, who had a friend who was curious and confused by it. Sermon, 2009-09-06, Who Do You Say the Son of Man Is? 3 And I can understand how a thoughtful person reading the gospels and being introduced to the term and the fact that Jesus used it of himself, might wonder why and what does it mean – especially since it sounds like Jesus is calling himself a man But doesn’t He also call himself God too? It’s like if someone kept calling themselves the yellow one, why would I believe you if you told me he was blue? And here’s the clincher. In fact, Jesus asks his disciples if they know what it means. Matthew 16:13 When Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?" Who are you? Jesus? Who is the Son of Man ? Jesus wants us to ask the question. And it turns out that the definition and explanation is fairly easy to understand. But the implications, what it means, and what it relates to is really profound and important. So, today: Who do people say the Son of Man is? 1. It refers to humanity . The term is used a few times in the Old Testament of just a son of a man, as in Psalm 8:4 What is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man , that he should change his mind. Sometimes in the Old Testament it was how God spoke about humanity in its entirety. Men and the sons of men, us all. But then, at one point, God uses it soften when he speaks to the prophet Ezekiel that son of man came to 2. It refers to a prophet . Sermon, 2009-09-06, Who Do You Say the Son of Man Is? 4 In the book of Ezekiel in the Old Testament, which is one of the latest written books, Son of Man explodes in usage. He uses it over 90 times in Ezekiel. God speaks to Ezekiel directly. And he calls Ezekiel “son of man.” As in Ezekiel 2:1 He said to me, " Son of man , stand up on your feet and I will speak to you." Ezekiel 3:4 He then said to me: " Son of man , go now to the house of Israel and speak my words to them. God uses it constantly in Ezekiel; it’s in almost every chapter of the book. Sometimes it appears 5 or 6 times in a chapter. It’s such a dominant feature of how God speaks to Ezekiel, who is a prophet, that by Jesus’ day “son of man” was associated with an expression for a prophet. Son of Man was an expression for a prophet. God made it into that. But then, the prophet Daniel used it in a special way . In Daniel, which is another book in the Old Testament that’s really interesting, you should read it, Son of Man came to 3. It refers to The Messiah . Look at what Daniel prophesied almost 600 years before Jesus. Daniel 7:13-14 "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man , coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed. This is a very important verse in the Old Testament. If you haven’t seen this before or don’t know where to find this, you ought to remember this. Sermon, 2009-09-06, Who Do You Say the Son of Man Is? 5 I think Daniel’s talking about Jesus here. But this is well before Jesus’ time. Daniel, who is a visionary prophet has a vision at night, maybe a dream, and he sees one who he says was like a son of man coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached God and who was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed. So, the Jews who studied the OT said, one day God is going to send us a man, a special man, who will be powerful and who will establish an eternal kingdom. Daniel was a captive slave in the Babylonian kingdom at the time. And the Jews had suffered oppression by other nations all through their history. So, they took this vision to mean, that one day God would send them a rescuer, a Savior, and that man would be worshipped by all people, all nations, and all men. And that person would be a king. And do you know what they did at a king’s coronation in Israel? When a king was crowned? They would anoint Him. Anoint means to have oil poured on you. Look up 1 Samuel 15 where Samuel said to Saul, "I am the one the LORD sent to anoint you king over his people Israel; The king would be anointed, he would have oil poured over his head as a sign of God’s Spirit.

  • 30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom
    30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom Katrin Horn When the sitcom 30 Rock first aired in 2006 on NBC, the odds were against a renewal for a second season. Not only was it pitched against another new show with the same “behind the scenes”-idea, namely the drama series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. 30 Rock’s often absurd storylines, obscure references, quick- witted dialogues, and fast-paced punch lines furthermore did not make for easy consumption, and thus the show failed to attract a sizeable amount of viewers. While Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip did not become an instant success either, it still did comparatively well in the Nielson ratings and had the additional advantage of being a drama series produced by a household name, Aaron Sorkin1 of The West Wing (NBC, 1999-2006) fame, at a time when high-quality prime-time drama shows were dominating fan and critical debates about TV. Still, in a rather surprising programming decision NBC cancelled the drama series, renewed the comedy instead and later incorporated 30 Rock into its Thursday night line-up2 called “Comedy Night Done Right.”3 Here the show has been aired between other single-camera-comedy shows which, like 30 Rock, 1 | Aaron Sorkin has aEntwurf short cameo in “Plan B” (S5E18), in which he meets Liz Lemon as they both apply for the same writing job: Liz: Do I know you? Aaron: You know my work. Walk with me. I’m Aaron Sorkin. The West Wing, A Few Good Men, The Social Network.

Savage 1 “Who’s gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It’s chocolate, it’s peppermint ─it’s delicious!” While this may sound like your typical television commercial, you can thank Jerry Seinfeld and his butter fingers for what is actually one of the most renowned lines in television history. As part of a 1993 episode of Seinfeld , subsequently known as “The Junior Mint,” these infamous words have certainly gained a bit more attention than the show’s writers had originally bargained for. In fact, those of you who were annoyed by last year’s focus on a McDonald’s McFlurry on NBC’s 30 Rock may want to take up your beef with Seinfeld’s producers for supposedly showing marketers the way to the future ("Brand Practice: Product Integration Is as Old as Hollywood Itself").

  • Which Seinfeld Character Are You?
    EPISODE 181: THE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MEETING WHICHWHICH SEINFELDSEINFELD CHARACTERCHARACTER AREARE YOU?YOU? In our business dealings, we are often guilty of just not listening. We come to the table with an agenda—a new product, a new service—and wait while a prospect or existing client tells us what’s going on with his or her business. At some point, that person will pause—and we pounce with our spiel. This approach rarely works - successful business development requires some level of rapport and relationship building. As in all aspects of life, this can mean dealing with those who may not share your views or approach. In order to adapt quickly and improvise in these instances, it’s helpful to understand people’s communication and personality styles. There are a number of tests that can help us understand the personality and communication styles of others, including the popular DISC model. This model has four quadrants: dominance, influence, steadiness, and conscientiousness. Influence and steadiness are on the right side of the brain, and dominance and conscientiousness are on the left side. Understanding someone’s dominant quadrant can help you find a way to work more effectively with them. UNDERSTANDING WHAT SEINFELD YOUR SITCOM CAST Now that you understand where you fall QUADRANT ARE YOU? within the quadrants, you can begin to think about how to work and respond to any cast of characters you may come I’ll let you in on an interesting tidbit, successful sitcoms often across. Friction will naturally arise include a character from each of the following quadrants, because these are people with opposite because the resulting friction tends to be funny.

  • Views on Happiness in the Television Series Ally Mcbeal: the Philosophy of David E
    QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ McKee, Alan (2004) Views On Happiness In The Television Series Ally Mcbeal: The Philosophy Of David E. Kelley. Journal of Happiness Studies 5(4):pp. 385- 411. © Copyright 2004 Springer The original publication is available at SpringerLink http://www.springerlink.com 1 Views on happiness in the television series Ally McBeal: the philosophy of David E Kelley Alan McKee Film and Television Queensland University of Technology Kelvin Grove QLD 4059 Australia [email protected] 2 Abstract This article contributes to our understanding of popular thinking about happiness by exploring the work of David E Kelley, the creator of the television program Ally McBeal and an important philosopher of happiness. Kelley's major points are as follows. He is more ambivalent than is generally the case in popular philosophy about many of the traditional sources of happiness. In regard to the maxim that money can't buy happiness he gives space to characters who assert that there is a relationship between material comfort and happiness, as well as to those that claim the opposite position. He is similarly ambivalent about the relationship between loving relationships and happiness; and friendships and happiness. In relation to these points Kelley is surprisingly principled in citing the sources that he draws upon in his thinking (through intertextual references to genres and texts that have explored these points before him). His most original and interesting contributions to popular discussions of the nature of happiness are twofold. The first is his suggestion that there is a lot to be said for false consciousness.
