No new "Office" tonight means I have to leave the house for entertainment
Bad news, guys: due to the vice presidential debates, there will be no new episode of "The Office" on tonight. Although I know that watching Governor Sarah Palin try to speak words out loud is easily as entertaining as watching a full episode of my favorite comedy, I am taking the opportunity to go out and enjoy tonight's cooler weather during Art Hop/Arc Hop. We at the Beehive suggest you do the same.
Until next week's new episode, you can head over to Entertainment Weekly's site and enjoy a countdown of Jim Halpert's Best Office Pranks... or not. As fun as it is to reminisce about "Office" episodes of yore, EW, which has a knack for sucking the life out of beloved pop culture moments, has carefully explained each prank in great detail, rendering them all completely unfunny. And anyone who considers herself a true "Office" fan will remember what Jim Halpert himself told us in season two's "Conflict Resolution":
"You know, these actually don't sound that funny, one after another."
Right again, Jim Halpert. See you next week, fictional soulmate!

WTF??? All I had to look forward to was The Office tonight. I learned how to program my DVR and I was ready to watch after I finish my 12 hour day at My Office.
I can't even venture out to Art/Arch Hop until 9:00. Fresno, please keep partying until I get off work. I will need a serious drink escape the lack-of-The Office-reality in which I find myself.
I guess I should try to hit up the party after the party...anyone heading to Tokyo?

Stupid elections ruining my Thursday night. Oh well, I guess I'll watch Iron Man on blu-ray for the tenth time and pretend I'm Tony Stark.

I'll most certainly be at Tokyo.

Debate followed by ArtHop follwed by beer follwed by Monty Python (maybe).

I've having trouble with the logic here.
Thursday is pretty much the best day of TV, right?
Friday is one of the worst, right? (R.I.P TGIF)
So why was the presidential debate on Friday?
And the VP debate on Thursday?
If logic follows, it should be on Saturday, because Friday > Saturday and Prez > VP
oh, and while I'm throwing >'s around:
Dwight Schrute > Sarah Palin.
True!
Though I'd love to see either of them wrestle a bear.

Wrestle, I think in Alaskan that translates to snipe with a high-powered rifle from an airplane.
