How Does Law and TV's The Office Mix? That's What She Said

It may be the best legal blog in the world. That's What She Said.

As in the blog, That's What She Said. A blog that recaps each new episode of The Office and calculates the value of any litigation resulting from the activities from each episode.

For example, according to That's What She Said, Stanley would be able to recover $100K for tortious invasion of privacy from Michael Scott and Dunder-Mifflin in the Season 6 premiere Office Scuttlebutt. The blog also has helpful hints for employers on how not to commit the tortious violations that Michael Scott seems to have a particular affinity for.

Woot-Off

Woot.com, the one item a day internet superstore, is having a Woot-Off, where instead of selling one thing a day, they sell one thing until it sells out, and then another.

The big hit of the Woot-Off is "Random Crap", where for $3 + $5 shipping, you agree to buy any three items Woot will sell you. Sometimes it's screws, sometimes it's an LCD television.

Bargain hunters flock to Woot during Woot-Offs, and their servers crash when they offer Random Crap, so the chances of actually getting to buy crap are not so good. But it's a mindless diversion to see what items are up for sale during the Woot-Off, and there's always a chance.

Rapture Insurance - Eternal Earthbound Pets

I fear the rapture like anyone else (but likely for different reasons than all the born agains...), and it's nice to know that if Biscuit doesn't get called to Heaven, there's a heathen to take care of her.

Eternal Earthbound Pets

$110 for ten years of rapture protection for the cat? A steal!
