Happy Birthday, B.J.!

B.J. Novak

Without B.J. Novak, there would be no Cadbury egg controversy, no Kool-Aid man, no Five Families, and no d-bag performance of the year.

Most importantly, there would be no OfficeTally.

Happy Birthday to the hottest Beardy we know,
B.J. Novak!

My Comic-Con moment with Rainn Wilson

The Office Comic-Con

Instead of asking Rainn questions about his upcoming movie ‘The Rocker,’ or about ‘The Office’ Season 5, I decided to mercilessly impale him with my PhoneSaber.

If you’re an iPhone geek like us, check out PhoneSaber. It is the dorkiest, most useless app you can download to your iPhone. And totally fun.

Thank you, Matt Collins!
