What is with this writer's strike? I am not a huge TV watcher but I miss coming home to "The Office" on Thursdays. They have (or had) such a great writing staff. Come on, greedy studio folks. Just give them their share of the cash, for the love of all that is good and funny.
Some "Office" wisdom to hold me over:
Michael Scott: Abraham Lincoln once said that "If you're a racist, I will attack you with the North." And these are the principles I carry with me in the workplace.
Dwight Schrute: In the wild, there is no health care. In the wild, health care is, 'Ow, I hurt my leg. I can't run. A lion eats me. I'm dead.' Well, I'm not dead. I'm the lion. You're dead.
Dwight Schrute: Security in this office park is a joke. Last year I came to work with my spud-gun in a duffle bag. I sat at my desk all day with a rifle that shoots potatoes at 60 pounds per square inch. Can you imagine if I was deranged?
Michael Scott: A lot of the people here don't get trophies very often, like Meridith or Kevin. I mean who's gonna give Kevin an award? Dunkin' Donuts?
Dwight : This is a Schrute buck. When you have done something good, you will receive one Schrute buck. One thousand Schrute bucks equals an extra five minutes for lunch.
Pam : [raises hand] What is the cash value of a Schrute buck?
Dwight : Excellent question, Pam. 1/100th of a cent.
Oscar : So 10,000 of your dollars is worth one real dollar?
Dwight : Just zip your lid.
Dwight : Very good. You have earned one Schrute buck.
Stanley : I don’t want it.
Dwight : Then you have been deducted fifty Schrute bucks.
Stanley : Make it a hundred.
Dwight : Don’t you want to earn Schrute bucks?
Stanley : No. In fact, I’ll give you a billion Stanley nickels if you never talk to me again.
Dwight : What’s the ratio of Stanley nickels to Schrute bucks?
Stanley : The same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns.

We too miss The Office. Thanks for the humorous reminders to hold us over.
That was almost as good as a new episode of The Office! Honestly, one of the best shows on TV. What other show can make you laugh so hard you almost choke to death, and the next second you're covering your eyes with embarassment for whoever just did something unbelievable! I'm with you, give the writer's their money, they are SO worth it!
YAY for The Office, it seriously brings a smile to my face whenever I think of it - thanks for the reminders. Dwight Shrute is on my Top Ten Hero List. I don't know what that says about me, but he is my favorite character! Thanks for the laughs - I love reading your blog and next time I get ten seconds of spare time I really might think about creating my own!
Hi, this is Tamarynn! I don't know if you remember me from high school, but I just thought it was great that you have a blog so I could get a chance to say "hello" to Shay and see what you two have been up to. I hope all is going well and will you please tell Shay "hi" for me! Thanx!
