   Question: tmckenna, will you be doing any more scripts?! These are hilarious and would make excellent episodes (especially The Exterminator)!!!

   I’m not sure if anyone has said this yet but its supposed to be MTV Movie Awards, not Music.

   John Krasinski also had small parts in Dreamgirls, The Holiday, and Duane Hopwood. I’m not obsessed.

   That MSN article? Please.

    I just read that interview out loud to my husband, & we are both so impressed. I hope John remains that unaffected & so deeply kind. He is really beautiful.

    I stopped caring about what MSNBC guy said around here: “I am quite possibly the only person in America who doesn’t like Pam as a potential mate for Jim, and think he is better off with the acerbic Karen Filippelli.”

    Spare me.

    i just read the article of John Krasinski over at GMMR, and you’d think you couldn’t love him any more, read it.

    Yes, D.K. Holm, you are the only person in America who doesn’t like Pam as a potential mate for Jim. Also, D.K. Holm, The Office has had romantic and sexual tension as the emotional core of the show since the first season; it’s not new.

    Cousin Mose — ditto.

    Seriously…to the author of that MSN article: have a heart! And lighten up, will ya?

    And I’m glad that the Newsweek article is championing beta males! I’ve always found them way more endearing than alpha dogs.

    My pleasure, tmckenna. I have heard a lot about them! :)

    “The soul of “The Office,” and its stealth heartthrob, is actually easygoing, soft-spoken Jim…”

    ahhhh swoonnnnnnnn “stealth heartthrob” love it.

    and did you all see pictures from Mean magazine over at GMMR? I totally made one of them my desktop background. it’s so pathetic.
