        Getting called to the couch was extremely rare and Seinfeld wasn’t, but it wasn’t this that made careers on the Tonight Show; it was being invited back.

    Yeah, but I got free books when I went to see Tufte…

    So it makes sense that I went to one Of Tufte’s seminars that was held in Caroline’s Comedy Club. No joke.

      I was just reading his web site yesterday, and he mentioned that it had some of the best acoustics of anywhere he’s done his seminars.
