Pearl was looking for some more paperclips. Shelley said she only had one left and couldn't spare it. Immediately, Diane and I knew where she was going with that. The infamous "can't spare a square" bathroom incident.

Today Shelley brought in muffins for her birthday treat. The pumpkin muffins had a crumbly spice topping. Someone said "the top is my favorite". Immediately, Shelley, Diane and I knew that this was a reference to "The Muffin Tops"...the one where Elaine has an idea to make a business selling just the tops of the muffins, without the stumps.

This morning on my way to work, I was behind a car that had a license plate starting with "GAK". The first thing that came to mind was Todd Gack, one of Elaine's boyfriends.

The promo for the show The Blacklist said "her 2 worlds are colliding" (referring to the main character, who is an FBI agent and her husband is now a suspect). This reminded me right away of George and his "2 world" speech, referring to who he is with his friends ("independent George") and then who he is with his girlfriend ("relationship George").

Music Ironicness: Maroon 5 - Harder To Breathe
Last night on The Voice, Christina Aguilera had 2 of her singers sing Maroon 5's "Harder to Breathe". This morning Amy and I were talking about the performances, and that song in particular because it is a hard song to sing because it has a lot of words. Then, about an hour later, this song randomly played on my Google shuffle.

Music Ironicness: Maroon 5 - Lucky Strike
Today when I was driving home from work, I heard Gym Class Heroes' song "Stereo Hearts" that featured Adam Levine. That got me to wondering what Maroon 5's new single was going to be, now that The Voice is on. Because, in seasons in the past, Adam Levine has has done a new song. One season it was "Payphone" and another time it was "Love Somebody". So, as I'm thinking about this, I turn the radio station, and low and behold, the first song I hear is "Lucky Strike". I have NEVER heard this on the radio before, and I have not seen ANYWHERE that this was going to be their next single! So ironic!

Twitter Interaction: Hayden Moss
I'm so excited! I got a reply from Hayden Moss! He's one of my favorite Big Brother winners (season 12). He's also on this season of Survivor. Tonight, his quote from the episode was used as the title of the episode...quite an honor! It was "One Armed Man and 3 Moms", referring to their devastating defeat to a much less physical team. After I posted about it on Twitter (from my Reality Bites account), he replied!

We were talking about photos in the catalog and ones that featured employees who no longer work at Lehman's. One of our favorites is the 6-in-1 scarf. We were laughing about a certain former employee who had long hair and how funny it would look in the scarf and that it might not fit as a hat. That made me think of when Hanky wouldn't apologize to George about saying that his large head would stretch out the neck of his finely knit sweater.

At work we were talking about people who always chit chat on the phone when they call and how you never want to answer the phone when they call because you know you can never get them off. We joked about having an excuse that there was another call coming in, etc. That made me think of when Jerry had a list of excuses written down that he could use when this guy he didn't like would ask him to do something....it was like an "excuse rolodex".
This video is later in the episode when they are using some of the excuses (unfortunately I couldn't find the one where Elaine finds his list and adds some of her own ideas to it.)
