Tales from Bloggeritaville: I need to return to the Office....

I need to return to the Office....

Is it just me? Or are you feeling the effects of the writers strike? I am about to join up with George Clooney (what could be wrong with that? I think he is a really funny guy). Obviously he too is missing his Thursday night TV (Of course I know that isn't the real reason). What is with these big wigs that will not give in to the demands of the writers? It is obvious that without giving in, there is no TV. Not really. Not to mention it is costing the industry billions of dollars. What they have cost the industry could've paid these people. The writers are the reason they have a hit show.

This strike is killing me. It is killing me to not know what is going on at Dunder-Mifflin. What is Dwight doing these days? Has he brown nosed Micheal so much that he has earned the position of ASS-istant GM? Has Jim and Pam finally given into their mutual office crush for one another? Has Michael finally been fired for sexual harassment? Have Dwight and Angela been found out? These are things I must know.

Sure I have been watching my own personal video collection, as well as watch reruns on TBS but it only gets me so far. I have applied and been accepted, mind you, to be a employee of Dunder Mifflin Infinity, AL-Tuscaloosa Branch (LOL). (http://www.dundermifflininfinity.com/) But it too lacks the same quality as sitting in front of the TV watching the events of the daily office unfold.

PLEASE! PLEASE! You big wig, hot shots of Hollyweird, Please give up and meet the demands of the writers. You are losing money anyway, give it to those who are responsible for the success of your show- for peets sake -the networks (hear me NBC!)In the meantime, CONGRATS TO THE CAST OF THE OFFICE! They won Best Comedy Ensemble at the Screen Actors Guild Awards

If you too are needing a personal office fix, visit the web site. There is some mediocre trivia and online podcast of behind the scenes stuff on the site. Though it stops short of producing the real chauvinistic, rude, overzealous and witty show that so many love. Office. Please return. I need my weekly employment.

Words of Wisdom

"Older and wiser voices can always help you find the right path, if you are only willing to listen."-Jimmy Buffett

Sea Joy
When I go down by the sandy shore,I can think of nothing I want moreThan to live by the booming blue seaAs the seagulls flutter round about me.
I can run around when the tide is outWith the wind and the sand and the sea all about,And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish.Oh, to live by the sea is my only wish.
- Jacqueline Bouvier

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream." --- Mark Twain

The cure for anything is salt water---sweat, tears, or the sea. ~Isak Dinesen

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.Philippians 4:12,13 NIV

Live a good life and in the end it's not the years in the life, it's the life in the years.~ Abe Lincoln

Let your boat of life be light Packed with only what you need --A homely home and simple pleasures,One or two friends, worth the name,Someone to love and someone to love you,A cat, a dog, and a pipe or two,Enough to eat and enough to wear,And a little more than enough to drink...For thirst is a dangerous thing.
-- Jerome K Jeromefrom "Three Men in a Boat"

The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginnings but not its end.

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
~Eleanor Roosevelt

"We can make our plans,But the LORD determinesour steps" Proverbs 16:9

"Let us not forget what is best remembered or may we not remember what is best forgotten."

"Fish and overnight guest stink after three days."
~plaque at Fish Camp Restaurant, Orange Beach, Alabama

"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human being experience."

"A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future and accepts you today just the way you are."
Proverbs 27:17

The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have. The richest person is not the one who has the most, but the one who needs the least.

Live simply. Love generously. Care Deeply. Speak Kindly. Leave the Rest to God.

Worry is a robber of time and energy. Take comfort within that God's power is what we truly need. He knows our needs before we can even ask for them.

If you worry, you didn't pray. If you prayed, don't worry. Faith is the ability to not panic.

Don't "find" a religion. "Find" your relationship with God.
~Bill Burgess

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you, too, can become great."-Mark Twain
