The Office DVD Wall Calendar 2008
Update: Calendars are now back in stock at Walldaddy! See link below.
When I posted the Holiday Gift Guide, some of you recommended checking out The Office DVD Wall Calendar by Trends International.
And you guys are right, it’s a great calendar!
Each month is chock full of photos, episode quotes, MySpace-like bio trivia, and funny props. Very cleverly put together, with Office fanatics in mind.
The calendar also includes a DVD of twelve .JPG files (one of each month, 1280×1023), which you can use as your computer’s wallpaper.
Walldaddy sells the DVD wall calendar (sorry, looks like it sold out again), as well as posters of Michael, Dwight, and the five leads. Use the coupon WDGNRL10 for another 10% off.

It’s just another New Year’s Eve …
“Don’t look so sad, it’s not so bad you know
It’s just another night, that’s all it is
It’s not the first, it’s not the worst you know
We’ve come through all the rest, we’ll get through this …
It’s just another New Year’s Eve, let’s make it the best …
… when we’re through this New Year, you’ll see, we’ll be just fine.”

Lonesome Trio
Tallyhead Ivy files this report from The Lonesome Trio’s performance in New York City last night.
My friend, Katherine, and I wandered into Manhattan to see The Lonesome Trio play at the Parkside Lounge. Since we both really love Ed Helms, we decided to drink some wine at a local Italian wine bar before heading over, to calm our nerves and embolden us to actually talk to Ed Helms (is bold the right word?).

Tallyheads, show me a sign
Are you trapped in a house where people are watching the Patriots/Giants game, and there’s nothing for you to do?
Yeah, me too.
Let’s have a little impromptu contest:
- Create a sign with any of these nifty sign generators.
- Your message has gotta be Office-related.
- Upload your sign somewhere (DO NOT link directly to atom smasher), then post a link to it in a comment below.
- Include a valid email address.
- One entry per person.
- U.S. only, please.
Contest ends when the Patriots/Giants game ends.
I am telling you upfront that I will be totally arbitrary in how I pick prize winners. There might not be any, there might be a few. I might award Target goodies, or maybe even one of those highly-sought-but-impossible-to-find Office DVD wall calendars. Dunno.
Okay, show me what ya got, forward it like it’s hot …
THE CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED (8:22pm PT).
See prizewinners after the jump. Thanks, everybody, for playing!
Post now reopened for comments. No new entries, please. Thanks!
