• Article: Ricky Gervais will appear in the video game Grand Theft Auto IV.
• Article: John Krasinski appears in this month’s Southwest Airlines’ Spirit Magazine.
• Article: Entertainment Weekly names Oscar Nuñez an incredibly awesome accountant.
• Article: Five Families boss “Cool Guy Paul” from last week’s episode ‘Chair Model’ really is named Paul Faust and really does own a business named Disaster Kits Limited!
• Audio: speaking of ‘Chair Model,’ call up 1-800-984-3672 (formerly Dwight’s flasher hotline) for a message from another Five Families boss, W.B. Jones.
• Audio: Kate Flannery’s interview with Adam Carolla.
• Audio: Melora Hardin talks about ‘Dinner Party’ and the spin-off.

   They must have waited a bit to change the message on the W.B. Jones number. I called when I was re-watching “The Office” thinking it would be a new message but it wasn’t. Thanks for the tip tanster!

   I wonder if there was fighting at EW over which Office Accountant to include. It would have been hard for me to pick just one.

   Oh i missed one question on the quiz! It was where they first considered having The Office at….. I thought it was Gastonbury just because it sounded good to me.

    I took the Office quiz at Mental Floss (great magazine and website, BTW) and learned that Phyllis Smith is a former NFL cheerleader! Wow, what an awesome new bit of trivia.

    I don’t know if you guys know this, but Paul Faust is Paul and Angela’s cousin! He married into the Liberstein family.

    Managed to get 100% on the Mental Floss quiz (but only scored an 80% on the AD one, sadly).

    I LOVE it when they do those hotlines! I can call them from my office and make believe that I’m working for Dunder-Miflin.

    Did I just reveal too much about myself? TMI?
