   Can’t see Tim Meadow’s Myspace page… I requested to be his friend a few days ago. I guess he denied my request :(

   With License to Wed being so bad, it’s hard to imagine John Krasinski being offered the lead in a movie. But then again, that Shia Lepoof guy got the lead in Transformers and he is a truly horrible actor.

   Hey folks – I saw License to Wed on Tuesday evening and I really liked it. It wasn’t the greatest movie ever made but John is fantastic. The three stars had good chemistry and I think it had a little something for everyone, so don’t believe all the bad reviews. If you go, stay through the credits b/c they show outtakes. And on a side note, if you live in the U.S., VH1 is reairing the Concert for Diana about a billion times this week – I caught the Ricky Gervais clip and it was really funny. The crowd went nuts so the show must have been really popular over there.

   Aw, I loved that PamPong youtube! Great job, Lauren!

   I really think the song should have a different name though . . . it just doesn’t seem to fit with the depth of the song.

   Regarding Brief Interviews, has anyone heard where John be working on the editing? They shot it in NYC, but will he be editing it there or in LA?

    I thought you all should know that John Krasinski is not going to be Fletch. The part went to Josh Jackson (per joshuajackson.net)

    Washingtonpost.com briefly mentions that the median age of “Office” viewers is 38 – pretty young in comparison to most other shows.

    My friend (Mexicanity) told me about the David Brent thing on the Concert for Dianna and how Ricky went into his dance. I’m sad I missed it. Has anyone Youtubed it yet?

    I’ve had major doubts since I heard they were making a new Fletch movie, but maybe John Krasinksi could pull it off. I think Jason Lee would be a good pick, too.
    I loved Jenna and Angela’s updated blogs. Wow, Angela is a true friend. It was so moving to hear how much she helped Jenna through that tough time.

    Cardigan?(#19)- “Time” is by a Canadian singer named Chantal Kreviazuk.
