GEORGE: So alright, what are we getting? It's so hot in here!

KRAMER: What do you say we get a Mouton Cadet?

GEORGE: What's that?

KRAMER: It's robust, bold, very dry. As opposed to a Beaujolais which is richer and fruitier. Here's one. Twelve dollars.

GEORGE: Twelve dollars? I knew we should have gone to the bakery. I guarantee you they aren't getting no twelve dollar cake.

KRAMER: All right but I am going to have to pay you back latter I don't have my wallet.

GEORGE: . . . Why not?

KRAMER: Because I don't like to carry my wallet. My osteopath says it's bad for my spine. It throws my hips off kilter

GEORGE: "throws your hips off kilter" So where's your money?

KRAMER: I never take it.

GEORGE: So what do you do?

KRAMER: Oh, I get by.
 
I think that's only if you sit on your wallet while its in your back pocket.
I say this because it actually happened to me once! I had my wallet in my back pocket as I sat through an 8 hour work day...the following day my back was sore!
 
Did they really say 'osteopath' on Seinfeld?? I remember one about George's wallet being huge, but I didn't remember any of this.
 
Weird. I think Larry David did an episode of curb your enthusiasm titled 'the osteopath' once too. Someone should inform MR David of his outdated terminology. J/K (sort of, I hate the term osteopath).

The term is short and highlights a huge difference between an OMT DO and an MD, which is why it's still (or now, more than ever) a popular term. But I know where you're coming from.

LD is a genius, BTW.

I love Larry David, and totally understand why the term would be used to separate the two divisions, BUT I personally don't like it because it makes DOs appear to not be doctors/have anything to do with conventional medicine which isn't true. Osteopathic Physician is so much more PC ...
 
excellent post !

Dr VonNostrand in the house
see "the slicer" episode I added my favorite part below 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Kramer: George, we got a problem.
George: What?
Kramer: Well, he's got a mole on his shoulder. Very suspicious.
George: So, tell him you're concerned about it and he should see someone else.
Kramer: George, why would I, a Juilliard trained dermatologist, send him to another doctor?
George: Because, you're not a dermatologist.
Kramer: He thinks I am. I'm not gonna betray that trust. Here's what I wanna do; I think I can get a section...
George: Whoa, whoa, a section?!
Kramer: Yeah, if I could grab my slicer and he'd hold still...
George: No, you're not taking a deli slicer to my boss...
Kramer: It'll be operative thing, he would barely feel it.
George: No! Absolutely Not!
Kramer: Well, it's my medical opinion, that you're making a big mistake. And it's going in my chart.
