Hello,

It's a windy and sunny spring day on this Thursday. Not a trace of snow in our yard or on our road. Yea!!!!!!

I am really enjoying The Office, the remake of the British series of the same name. It's funny, envelope pushing and as close to a perfect remake of the show as possible. So far they've kept in the offensive aspect of the series which is really good. I'm pleasantly surprised at how daring they've been. Steve Carrell is very funny and nails the role that Ricky Gervais was so memorable in. Hopefully NBC will continue to allow the show to keep everything it has (and then some) and lose nothing. They've done a nice job of advertising it too.

Ridiculous item of the day: Nothing like stealing from your employer before you are hired. A man in Florida was applying for a job last Thursday when a video camera caught him taking an employee's keys, opening an office, and taking 15 lottery tickets from a file cabinet. He then left and returned four hours later to finish the application. He was arrested when he returned and found in his van were the keys and the 15 lottery tickets. A double whammy for him; the lottery tickets had previously been voided. Not a good day!

That's all for today, more later.
