I'm with Dregor on the speculation of the blond chick from the past.
Did she have to talk like her jaw was wired shut though? Her voice got on my nerves.

The Office
OK, so the last episode had Eric and I practically in tears. The "fire" scene (especially the cat) was one of the funniest scenes I've seen in a long time.
Not much to discuss about The Office, other than its genius, but thought it might be worth having a thread. Favorite moments?
