::Waves from Blogation::

Hellllooooo all. Since I've been on blogation (blog vacation) I've:

Stopped by here, here and there :P

Got spyware on Myspace.

Got rid of spyware on Myspace (Clean as a whistle now).

Attended a Halloween Party.

Went to The Office Convention in Scranton PA where it seems all went well despite the rain!! 13 cast members attended and a great time was had by all!! Check it out:

The Associated Press: Scranton Hosts an Office Party
More than 3,000 tickets were sold for the inaugural "Office Convention," the brainchild of local fans who wanted to showcase the city of about 75,000 residents. With several cast members making appearances, the convention drew fans from as far away as Australia, Ireland and Canada. While most events were held on the university campus, executive producer Greg Daniels and his writing staff tooled around the city in a minivan, seeking inspiration and story ideas. They wound up at Nay Aug Park, where they marveled at a gigantic handicapped-accessible treehouse built by the city. (Look for it in a future episode.)

The first "Office" convention kicked off Friday morning with an appearance by NBC "Today" show weatherman Al Roker and the University of Scranton cheerleaders.

Part of the convention was washed out by soaking rains, though fans hardly cared.

Executive producer Greg Daniels said the convention wasn't just for the fans; it was also a learning experience for the cast and crew. "It's as if we had been reading the Oz books and then actually visited the Emerald City," he said, adding, "It's so much more beautiful here than in Van Nuys (Calif.) where we film the show."

"Ain't no party like a Scranton party"
(and they weren't even here at St Pattys Day)
Here's looking to The Office Convention in 2008!!

The Song You've Been Requesting...

As a companion post to the one directly below, and to honor the request of many (well 2 of you anyway) may I present the song which shall be played at my funeral. It is as I say, an Irish classic!

Mistress Murphy gave a party
Just about a week ago,
Everything was plentiful,
The Murphys, they're not slow.
They treated us like gentlemen;
We tried to act the same
And only for what happened,
Well it was an awful shame.
When Mrs. Murphy dished the chowder out
She fainted on the spot;
She found a pair of overalls
At the bottom of the pot.
Tim Nolan he got ripping mad,
His eyes were bulging out,
He jumped upon the piano
And loudly he did shout.
"Who threw the overalls in Mistress Murphy's chowder?"
Nobody spoke so he shouted all the louder.
It's an Irish trick that's true, but I can lick the Mick that threw
The overalls in Mistress Murphy's chowder.
They dragged the pants from out the soup
And laid them on the floor;
Each man swore upon his life,
He'd ne'er seen them before.
They were plastered up with mortar
And were worn out at the knee,
They had their many ups and downs
As we could plainly see.
And when Mrs. Murphy she came-to
She 'gan to cry and pout,
She had them in the wash that day
And forgot to take them out.
Tim Nolan, he excused himself
For what he said that night,
So we put music to the words
And sang with all our might.
"Who threw the overalls in Mistress Murphy's chowder?"
Nobody spoke so he shouted all the louder.
It's an Irish trick that's true, but I can lick the Mick that threw
The overalls in Mistress Murphy's chowderrrrrrr.
