Wig Gate and Party Music
Why do I enjoy the Internet? I'll tell you why. Because people can spend weeks discussing whether an actor is wearing a wig or not on a show, and they even provide evidence that his hair is much shorter in RL than on the show. Ha! I must say, regardless of whether it is a wig or not, John Krasinski's hair on The Office has been bugging me in the last few episodes because it does not look good. He was playing a 1920s football player at the same time he was filming The Office so they messed with the hair somehow. He needs to go back to his good hair days of Season 2 (how adorable!), although he was also looking good when he filmed License to Wed, which is coming out this summer. Which by the way, you know I will probably see, let's face it, because I have a hard time restraining myself in front of romantic comedies, especially when the only alternatives on July 4th weekend will be Bruce Willis being all macho again and 80s action figures.
On a totally unrelated topic, as I was running errands today, I was listening to music and felt like dancing. LOL Since dancing in public for no reason is not appropriate (ha!), I made a playlist in my head of 50 songs I'd like to dance to. I figure I can use that list if/when I have a party. If it is on my blog, it will be easier to find. By the way, I am fully aware I have music tastes that are pretty eclectic and sometimes veer towards cheesiness, but as Lucille Bluth says, I won’t hear it and I won’t respond to it.
So here is the list in no particular order: (I would have many more to add, but 50 is a good start!)
Oh, and a slow song? Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight", TLC's "Red Light Special" or "To Make You Feel My Love" covered by Billy Joel.

Great party playlist Gen! I must go get Rhythm Nation now, that is such a great album and I haven't heard it in so long.
But sweetie, please please get yourself the original It's Raining Men by the Pointer Sisters. :p
G., I do have the original "It's Raining Men" in MP3, but I think I like Geri Halliwell's cover even better. I know, sacreligious.
Hey, I was just telling Dave yesterday how much I love Aguilera's Candyman. And *yay* for your Stevie Wonder picks.
Re: Jim's hair - pretty funny - I've missed that whole debate. His hair has looked bad - like they're trying too hard to make it like it was. I don't see why Jim couldn't just get a haircut - all part of moving on, right?
Oh, I know they are trying too hard to make it look like he has longer/flippier hair than he does. It's either a wig or the way they've been styling it, but either way, it just ends up looking silly. They would be much better off leaving it as is. And honestly, I'm not usually one to notice hair styles so it has to be pretty obvious! I do hope they mock his hair on the S3 DVD commentaries like they did on the NewsRadio commentaries when Dave Foley and Maura Tierney were wearing wigs.
"Candyman" is one of those songs that is crack in music form. Hee. I will have to listen to it until I get it out of my system.
I like the playlist! I remember the music video for OK Go's Here it Goes Again. That made me want to try their treadmill thing!
Anyway, about the discussions on whether celebrities wear wigs or not, those discussions are pretty active. They really want to go deep into the issue, and even to the point that they can name the brand of wig that the celebs are wearing. May it be Harlem 125 wigs, Aspen wigs, Sepia wigs, Vivica A. Fox wigs, Jon Renau wigs, or whatever. That's how people on the Internet do things these days.
