OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Only you, and the voices in your head.
Don't read too much into any of it. It's Rozner. He's a fucking idiot.

40 shekels to whoever can figure out what Creed's going to do with that third chair.

Great episode.

Renters paying mortgages and parents paying orphanage fees.

Those people shouldn't have to worry about where to park.

Michael:  She was so innocent.

Dwight:  She was stoned.  Apparently

Also, the meeting of the 5 families was tremendous.  Quick, but tremendous.  The HVAC guy didn't even seem like he was being portrayed by an actor but a genuines hard ass.
FIRE EVERYBODY!

Kudos to the writers on this episode.  It was incredible.  I figured at the end Michael was going to get closure with Jan, but they go to the grave of a woman who (if I read it correctly) had been dead for 5 years?  Brilliant.  It's like the dead bird all over again.  Also, Michael trying to back out of the meeting with Pam's landlady and having his drink served at the same moment had me crying.  I'm glad they've managed to keep Jim and Pam interesting after getting them together, though I have a feeling there will be some wedge to come between them sooner or later.

God that was good. And you know the writers will never touch it again. Nothing could compete with the imagination.

That said, they have come close. Especially with that "blog" of his.

I think I'll put my money on "no there won't."

At least not anything serious.

Yeah, let's not turn the show into a soap opera again.

I found the scene with the landlady very interesting, as that was the first throwback to the BBC version I can remember since about the first season.

I still haven't seen the BBC version of the show.  I've been meaning to, but just haven't bought it yet.  If what you mean though is it's the first time Michael's sort of been a jackass, then I agree.  Though I've actually just got done re-watching season 2, and he certainly has his moments.  But I think it's obvious they wanted to make Michael a little more likable.  He's more of a klutz than an asshole in the American version.
