No One Can Replace Steve Carroll

During a recent NBC conference, it was revealed that Steve Carell would probably not be renewing his contract with The Office after next year. However executives for NBC have assured reporters that producers on the show are already “preparing in the event he chooses to move on.” But who will lead Scranton’s finest paper company into the future?
Heres my thought......Please if it comes to this, don't look for a replacement, just let the show die with dignity besides NOBODY can replace Steve Carrell, period.

Song Of The Day: Wheels By jamie Cullum

Wheels" is smooth and sharp, with a pulsing piano-and-bass beat that is infectious.

LOST Is Coming To An End

My favorite lines of the night....
"You'll come to dinner even if we have to kidnap you!"
Danielle to Ben when she was at the school picking up her daugher.

Love the irony there since Ben kidnapped Alex on the island.

Also when Miles says to Ben.... "Well I lived in these houses 30 years before you did. Otherwise known as last week."

I'm thinking that Jack gets mortally wounded in the finale.....either stabbed or shot in the neck. The injury is manifesting itself in the alternate world.

Since Jack has drank from the blessed liquid and accepted the job, does that mean that Kate, Hurley, and Sawyer are no longer candidates and can be killed now?

More Things That Irk Me



Is it just my imagination or do I seem to post about this subject often? Oh well....... I do believe venting is good therapy.




People who drive 50 in a 80 km zone, people who nearly rear end me or who weave in traffic or who don’t give courtesy waves. Basically, everyone on the road.....You annoy me.

Confusing vanity license plates. It shouldn't be a chore to try to understand peoples license plate while I’m driving.

I hate surprises. Like, I really really hate them. I know some of you will disagree with me about this and be all, “But surprises are so fun!” and I hear that and I’m glad you like being blindsided by random things but I’m a control freak so actually no, for me surprises aren’t fun because I don’t know how to react to them and the entire process of “here’s some shit you didn’t know was coming but are now forced to deal with” is the opposite of fun.

People who look down on those of us who have vices. You know the type..... you ask them if they want to grab coffee and they say something like, “Ohhhh, I actually don’t drink coffee. I mean, it’s…yeah. I just don’t drink it.” If you don’t drink coffee, I feel sad for you, but I can accept it. But don’t judge me for succumbing to the necter of the gods.

People who spit on the ground. Gross. Stop acting like a neanderthal and swallow your spit like the rest of us.

People who when I ask what music they’re listening to say, “Ohhhh, you probably haven’t heard of them.” Uh, maybe not.......that's why I am asking. I am not trying to attack your musical interests, I just like music.
