The Office: Scraps to feed on

Why do blogs exist except to help you waste time at work?

In that spirit, here are some Hulu web exclusives from The Office that will each take up approximately one-thirtieth of a billable hour. First, hear an out-of-character Angela and Lesley (Stanley) discuss potential baby names. Then there’s a pretty good clip of Meredith vs. the new HR lady. Finally, there’s a small clip is a pretty good example of why shows get edited. It’s one of those is-it-funny-or-is-it-just-sad Office moments.

Los Campesinos! Day!: Rock out with your glockenspiel out

I’m declaring today Los Campesinos Day.  In honor of this Welsh band, you can’t use any vowels all day.

I’ve covered this band before in these virtual pages, but a lot of awesome stuff is happening with this band behind the scenes at TiFaux.  First of all, TiFaux John and I saw them on Friday (they were great!). Second of all, I wrote my second Washington Post article on them.  Third of all, TiFaux Cristin’s brother’s band, Titus Andronicus, will be opening up for them tonight.

In any case, the band’s new album “Hold On Now, Youngster” is out now and you should definitely give it a listen. Here’s a song that won’t be on the album, but you can still buy it off iTunes if you’re feeling the urge.  It’s called “International TweeXCore Underground.”[kml_flashembed movie="http://youtube.com/v/OG72H5PcGg0" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]
