You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I meant in the block of quoted text.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Der der der. I actually even knew that. I blame coffee. And society.

I thought the same thing you did! And was confused. Because I was pretty sure DJ wasn't that Greek. ANd then I felt badly about making assumptions!

Ha! I'm sure there are Southerners who are Greek, I think I even may have gone to school with one or two, but no, I think it is safe to assume there is no Greek in our background.

We've got the whitebread Europe covered though.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Office fans -- remember, new ep tonight!

By the way, do we approve of the Get Smart movie starring Steve Carell? (My vote: Not really, but if anyone can play Maxwell Smart today, it's probably Carell.)

(ETA: Aha! Punctuation trouble!)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I approve. It looks pretty funny. The WonderCon panel was hilarious.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I really really adore Get Smart and have piles of old videocassettes of the episodes, so I hope for the best with the movie, but am dubious. Best possible actor for it, though, given the constraints of our era.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Once again, it's a great casting choice, but whether it holds up is another thing entirely. Truly funny movies have been made out of beloved sitcoms (i.e. Addams Family and The Brady Bunch Movie) but that's not the way to bet.

Also don't forget there's a new Earl tonight. :: waves her tiny but earnest Earl flag ::
