			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.popcritics.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/the_office_s4x14_01.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2614" style="float: left;" title="the_office_s4x14_01" src="http://www.popcritics.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/the_office_s4x14_01-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a>I usually like to do an overall NBC comedy night recap, but when your DVR decides to let one of your dual tuners die, and thus only record Smallville, skipping <strong><em>30 Rock</em></strong>, then you are in for some trouble. Couple that with a pregnant wife who&#8217;s bed times are getting closer and closer to dinnertime, then <strong><em>Scrubs</em></strong> is on too late.</p>
<p>But at least we got to watch <strong><em>The Office</em></strong> last night, which was as hilarious as ever, with a bunch of crazy moments.</p>
<p>Michael is depressed over having broken up with Jan, and is desperate to find a woman so he can have kids before he&#8217;s old. But he&#8217;s such a pompous, clueless idiot, that Pam&#8217;s really nice landlady somehow eludes his tastes.</p>
<p>Yet I think Michael was more distraught over a girl in the office supply catalog that was sitting in a chair he was looking at. He fell in love with her, only to lose her in a matter of hours when Dwight informs him that she&#8217;s dead.</p>
<p>He hardly knew her.</p>
<p>Then there is the parking lot situation with a construction company taking up all the spots, thus forcing the employees to walk a half-mile every morning. This is bad for people that sweat, like Kevin, but also an issue if you have penny loafers with loose pennies.</p>
<p>Andy left his phone in the car and had to go all the way back to get it, prompting Phyllis to say &#8220;<strong><em>Call us when you get there so we know you&#8217;re oka</em>y.</strong>&#8221; Classic.</p>
<p>And to top everything off, we find out suddenly creepy Jim bought an engagement ring for Pam ONE WEEK after they started dating. Is that a bit weird?</p>
<p>But the fakeout at the end was perfect. Jim tells Pam that he&#8217;ll be proposing sometime, and when he does, it will kick her ass. So as the episode ends on their walk to the car, he gets down on one knee, looks up at Pam and says, &#8220;<strong><em>Hey Pam&#8230;.will you wait for me one second while I tie my shoe?</em></strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>I have to say, he totally fooled me too! And I got fooled again when Michael and Dwight visit the graveyard. I don&#8217;t know why, you can call me an idiot (and Jina missed it too) but I didn&#8217;t connect the dead chairlady with the graveyard. I was thinking somehow Jan died between episodes which would have been insane!</p>
<p>Anyone else but me think the hopping from gravestone to gravestone by Dwight was hilarious?</p>
<p>Two moments killed me tonight though. The first was when Michael was set up with <strong>&#8220;Wendy&#8221;</strong> and called a Wendy&#8217;s&#8230;I was dying.</p>
<p>And finally, Creed wins the night with the greatest line that makes no sense:</p>
<p><strong><em>&#8220;When Pam gets MIchael&#8217;s old chair, I get Pam&#8217;s old chair&#8230;then I&#8217;ll have two chairs. Only one to go.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the clip:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="510" height="295" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="flashvars" value="st=164&amp;et=177" /><param name="src" value="http://www.hulu.com/embed/qJVQiUirWoPUQoW6xF3YSw" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="510" height="295" src="http://www.hulu.com/embed/qJVQiUirWoPUQoW6xF3YSw" flashvars="st=164&amp;et=177"></embed></object></p>
<p>What the frak is he going to do with those chairs???</p>
<p>So what was your favorite part of the episode? Favorite quotes?</p>

<p>We can only hope.</p>
<p>Regardless of when or if we will, you&#8217;ll love the clip below. If I told you Michael Scott and Jan were on opposite teams playing Celebrities, you&#8217;d probably be able to guess how insane that would be.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t guess, watch. Hilarious.</p>

<p>And if the preview below is any indication, it&#8217;s going to be frakkin&#8217; hilarious!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay, people must be going through major <strong><em>Office</em></strong> withdrawals if a 5-second clip of the upcoming episode, <em><strong>Dinner Party</strong></em>, makes people laugh.</p>
<p>But it actually made me laugh as well.</p>
<p>Check it out, watch it a few times, but notice the <strong>double-hug</strong> Jim gets from Michael and Jan as he and Pam arrive at their house for the party.</p>
<p>I have to say, the idea of people going to Michael and Jan&#8217;s for a dinner party has such enormous and embarrassing potential for Michael, that I cannot frakking wait.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><!--adsense#blogpost-->Need an idea of something to get your friend or spouse this <strong>Christmas</strong> who totally loves <strong>The Office</strong>?</p>
<p>Last year I received <strong>TWO</strong> <strong>Dwight Schrute bobbleheads</strong>, which just goes to show you how much people think I love the show. And they would be correct.</p>
<p>This year, there is another bobblehead out for Office lovers and it&#8217;s of the greatest boss ever, <strong>Michael Scott </strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-2769666-10521309" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.tqlkg.com/image-2769666-10521309" align="right" border="0" height="250" width="300" /></a>Not only is the bobblehead holding Michael&#8217;s &#8220;World&#8217;s Best Boss&#8221; mug, but the thing also <strong>TALKS!</strong></p>
<p>How does it talk? A <strong>little button</strong> on the base gets pressed and you can hear some of his best lines:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Dinken Flicka.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;That&#8217;s what she said!&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;I hate so much&#8230;about the things that you choose to be.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Shuuuuuuut it.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;It&#8217;s really beyond words&#8230;it&#8217;s really, incalcuable.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;I like waking up to the smell of bacon, sue me.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-2769666-10521309" target="_blank"><br />
</a>Scott showed this to me about a week or so ago and I ordered it without thinking and everyone who has seen it has gotten a big kick out of it. You can get yours at the <strong><a href="http://www.nbcuniversalstore.com/detail.php?p=45021&amp;v=nbunbc&amp;DCMP=KNC-G-GG_The%20Office&amp;pa=360i&amp;HBX_OU=50&amp;HBX_PK=%7Bmichael%20scott%20bobblehead%7D" target="_blank">NBC Store</a></strong>.</p>
<p>And now my poor Dwight bobblehead finally has a friend.</p>
