Jan. 20th, 2006 08:31 pmIf you were wondering what sort of reaction The Office gets in Scranton, I heard one DJ on the way home from my cousin's hair salon call his wife and tell her the kitchen smelled like updog (she got it, but didn't seem all that thrilled) and one set of DJs was complaining because we don't even have a Hooters. I think the most amusing thing I've heard so far about the whole thing was that when they were making Scranton the setting, everybody was all happy about the whole thing until it turned out they picked Scranton because they were looking for an area in decline. *giggles* (We're talking about an area that made a really fancy county visitor's center without bothering to make anyplace worth visiting, and invested in a huge hotel and convention center downtown without giving people anywhere to park. We're not talking about people who can make easy strides in the logic department.)
Emmett is the most adorable thing on the planet. I got him a wheel to run in, and he's fascinated. He keeps running to the food and grabbing a pellet, then running back to stare at it while eating, then reaching out with his paw and spinning it, then repeating the process all over again. He has no idea what the hell it is, but he loves the heck out of it. :)
Saw Underworld: Evolution today. Obviously, it's not going to win any Oscars, but if you loved the first one in all of its cheesy yet pretty glory, this one's not bad. Truth be told, I thought this one was a little better, since it seemed like they tried to come up with a real plot this time. Plus, when Scott Speedman wasn't wet, he was either half-naked or all naked. Also, I would kill to look like Kate Beckinsale in these movies, particularly the almost-vamped Selene with the bright blue eyes.
I need to dye my hair. And also, post the fic recs that have been piling up.

Date: 2006-01-21 04:46 am (UTC)I checked the IMDb just out of curiosity, and it said that Dwight's got a Froggy 101 sticker on his bumper, which amused the hell out of me because it's the biggest country station in the area. I really wish that they'd reference KRZ, though, if only so someone could make a snide remark about Jumpin' Jeff Walker on national television. (Not that they'd get away with it, because he's totally the sort of asshole who'd sue, but he's a smug, untalented nimrod who's somehow been a DJ on the big top 40 station and he really needs someone to smack him upside the head.)

*snerk* We can only hope that they do.
