‘Dan in Real Life’ giveaway
Saturday, March 15th, 2008![]() |
Okay Tallyheads, this is not exactly Office-related, but I’ve got two “Dan in Real Life” DVDs (SRP $29.99) to give away!
I thought the movie was very sweet, and that Steve Carell made a great Everyman romantic lead. My favorite DVD extras were, of course, the outtakes (the first thing I ever go to on any DVD) and “the making of” featurette, which brought a tear to my eye. Here’s a video clip from the film — Complete contest details below. |

233 | Charlene Kuser Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 6:06pmA father who’s great when you’re a kid, and an embarrassment as a teen, and pitied as an adult.
232 | Lisa Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 5:49pmHe would be a fun dad but also discipline his child when necessary since the child would make him responsible.
231 | Kristen Hendricks Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 2:51pmMichael Scott would be a hilarious father…to watch. I’d just hate to be the mother who would have to fix all the messes he and the kid got into. :)
230 | Team JD Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 11:30amplease enter me :)
229 | kathy pease Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 10:34amI think he would be a little odd; definitely one of a kind!
228 | Patricia Simpkin Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 6:51amI would love to win this DVD Heard it was a good movie
227 | Betty Shoemaker Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 4:19amHe’ll be terrible at it, just like he is as a boss. He’ll teach the kid bad words, bad manners and bad habits. Poor kid.
226 | Heather C Fri. Mar. 28, 2008 at 8:48pmHe would make a really great Dad, but I think he might let the kids get away with a little too much.
225 | Paula McClement Fri. Mar. 28, 2008 at 5:07pmhe will make it
224 | philip halter Fri. Mar. 28, 2008 at 4:26pmMichael Scott would try too hard and make many mistakes but love enough to make up for his bumbling ways.
223 | Molly Fri. Mar. 28, 2008 at 2:13pmMichael Scott would be a kind-hearted father who would show his love through humor and many smiles.
222 | Bryant T Fri. Mar. 28, 2008 at 8:32am200 word maximum!
221 | Kathy Conley Fri. Mar. 28, 2008 at 6:36amMichael would be an interesting father, but he would raise his children to be independent and creative thinkers.
Michael’s “motivational parenting”: fun-tivities instead of playing catch, Dundies instead of birthday presents, and ketchup fights instead of … normal things.
220 | Kaytor Thu. Mar. 27, 2008 at 8:37pmHis heart is in the right place.
219 | Pamela White Thu. Mar. 27, 2008 at 6:32pmOh good heavens…Michael Scott…I think he would be a father who has NO CLUE what his children are up to, but loves them very much. I think he’d play kid games, and be great at sound effects!
218 | Jennifer Regan Wed. Mar. 26, 2008 at 8:34pmHe would love the child, but he would make the kid take improv classes and live vicariously through him/her.
217 | Bridget Wed. Mar. 26, 2008 at 3:11pmMichael would be a totally goofy dad…as many dads are!
