Wondering About Seinfeld

That’s some crush Howard Rosenberg’s got on Jerry Seinfeld (“Mundane Awards, Momentous Words,” Sept. 15). The man could say, “Heil Hitler,” and Rosenberg would rhapsodize: “How droll! How charming! How wry!”

About Seinfeld’s remark “I guess you didn’t buy me as me” at the Emmys: If he meant it, his insecurity is sad. If he didn’t mean it, he should be ashamed of his ungraciousness and lack of tact.

There’s a difference between self-effacement and self-absorption.
