This is pretty common knowledge by this time, but if you hadn't already heard, the phone number on Dwight's "pervert" flier is indeed a real live working number.1-800-984-3672I gave it a try tonight, and it's definitely good for a chuckle if you can get through. Dwight himself has laid a cunning trap for the flashing perv, and he also seems ready to part with one of his most beloved possessions! Simply shocking.
We all know Michael appreciates the ladies, so why not a special day just for them?(and if you've seen the promo clips -- school girl fantasies indeed! How scary is that?)NBC describes it like this:------------------------------------WOMEN'S APPRECIATION Special Time 8:36/7:36c TV14 05.03.2007 CAN'T LIVE WITH 'EM, CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT 'EM - Outrage breaks out in the office after Phyllis (Phyllis Smith) gets an unexpected eyeful from a flasher.

What can I say? Enjoy the comedy goodness. CBS To Release Own Version Of NBC's The Office
NEW YORK—Hoping to replicate the success of the Emmy-winning NBC show The Office, executives at CBS announced Monday that the network will adapt the highly rated comedy for CBS audiences.
"We're excited to bring the fresh, groundbreaking comedy of The Office to a completely new channel," CBS President Leslie Moonves said. "Some people say a show like The Office can only work on NBC, but we're out to prove them wrong."
Since securing rights to the sitcom, producers Bruce Klein and Greg Winston have worked diligently to repackage the show for its new context.
"We're huge fans of NBC's The Office—we want to remain faithful to that while at the same time creating our own voice," Klein said. "Obviously we had to change some of the language and cultural references to things our audience will understand. But the show's central message is the same: Just because they call it 'work' doesn't mean you can't have a few laughs while doing it."
The show's pilot, a shot-for-shot re-creation of NBC's Office pilot, features comedian David Spade as boss Peter Craig, the fun-loving and inspirational boss of a small-town Ohio paper company.
"Having David on the project is such a thrill," said Klein, who offered Spade the part after Ray Romano and Kevin James turned down the role. "Don't get me wrong—Steve Carell is great, but David's combination of zippy one-liners and all-out zaniness just can't be beat."
The remake will also feature the same will-they-won't-they love story between a plain-looking receptionist engaged to a man from the company's warehouse who doesn't appreciate her, and a perfectly suited coworker who pines for her from afar. But producers at CBS said the love triangle will be "completely revamped" for the new series, as new names have been created for all three characters. (MORE)
Well, you ASKED for ours... what are yours?

There. I said it.Why do I love so many NBC shows, yet they're in such dire ratings trouble?Sigh.After a break that made THE OFFICE's six weeks look like chump change, I am currently as giddy as a school-girl watching the new episode of HEROES.
