Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Build a shrine to Adam Brody in your office (but don't tell Kat).
Or his *mother*. She works here.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Houston has ten-digit dialing as well.

Pretty much all of Southeast Michigan was 313 for most of my life. It was only a couple of years before I moved out here to LA that 313 became only Detroit proper, and extra area codes were added for the outlying areas, and I discovered I was only a lowly 734.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

MD was the first state to do the 10 digit dialing. I am now completely thrown off whenever I'm somewhere that doesn't have it.

Yes, I can see how that would be awkward.

And thanks for all the area code info - I am from a state where we are STILL freaking out because we got another area code A YEAR AGO. Bringing us to a total of three. For the whole state.

NoVA has 10-digit dialing and so does Maryland, but D.C. doesn't. Which is confusing when I'm at work.

Hee, geeky California area code growth chart. And maps.

Weird to realize that I've been living in CA long enough to see sixteen new area codes generated. There's a lot of freakin' people here.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Do you all have to dial the area code even when making a local call?

Boston, for the last year. They realized they totally blew it on assigning area codes by geography, and rather than redo the whole system they're going to start overlaying a 2nd code in the 617 area, and a 2nd code in 781.

Aww, weirdly, I was thinking that Danny Strong didn't seem that short on GG. Maybe because for a lot of that episode he was sitting down. Also, Alexis Bledel is strangely short for being the daughter of her parents.
