As an “Office” junkie, I greatly enjoyed “The Office Special” last week- great to see the characters again, and it was much better than getting knobrot from some tart. I also caught “Shaun of the Dead” the other night- call it “’The Office’ With Zombies”- and liked it a lot too.
Anyway, on the “Office” special the greatest character on the show, Finchy, told a story about being introduced to a co-worker named “Isaac Hunt” (say it in a British accent, and you’ll get the joke). Assuming this must be an old joke, I checked around the internet, only to find this:
President Bush Signs Recess Appointment of Isaac HuntAnd speaking of Isaacs, LilB was in Boston for Games 1 and 2, where he went to the Cask and Flagon, met Conan O'Brien, and came up with empirical evidence that a blinking Red Sox hat can get you laid. It never worked that way with the beer hats. Posted by Stephen Silver at October 26, 2004 06:21 PM
President George W. Bush today signed the recess appointment of Isaac C. Hunt, Jr. to be a Commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Heh...beer hats...
Too bad they're cancelling modfest apparently. So what's BEMCo going to do for the semester?
Guess I graduated just in time.

Two friends and I went to the Museum of Television & Radio last week to watch the special and a chat with Ricky Gervais, who was in the house. It was a lot of fun. I hadn't bought the first two series on DVD yet, but a day or two after, I bought both. Still waiting for them to be delivered. I hope they come today. I'd rather watch that than baseball tonight. :(
