mugs

Did you ever watch Late Night with Conan O'Brien and wish you had that Gen. Eisenhower coffee mug that just sat oh so daintily on the cusp of your television to decorate your home decor?

First of all, if you said yes, you have the gayest living room decor since police raided Paul Reubens' home.

Second of all, here's your chance. Conan's mug and other pieces of the Late Night set have been stripped for parts and put on auction for the House to Home Project, a charity that helps families who have lost their homes to natural disasters.

Well, we knew it was coming, right? Like the current financial crisis, there was only so much juggling that was possible before the inevitable happened: tonight marked the beginning of the "Will Pam stay in New York" subplot. Regular readers know my feelings on this, so I won't dwell too much on it. Let's just hope that the writers find a way to make it more interesting than I'm expecting it to be.

The sad part about choosing now to sound the creaky machinations of the Jim/Pam plot was that it came at the end of a very decent stand-alone office-themed episode...
