Summary:

Ideas for Cold Openings (the pre-title gags) always pop into my head. So these will be just a bunch of teasers that, hopefully, you will find funny. I don't know how many I will post but I'll keep putting them up as they occur to me.

That's why you're here, brainiac. Go ahead.  Ha!  I've probably mentioned this before, but you do such a great job at capturing the characters' voices.  I would ask what inspired this but I suspect that you, like me, can make everything pertain to The Office : )  Thanks for starting my day with a smile.

Author's Response: Thank you! And yeah, I can generally make ANYTHING relate to The Office...lol...

You had me at  “I can’t believe it’s not Beesly” : )  I would love to see this happen. 


Author's Response: Thanks Nan!

An update from you always brings a smile to my face.  Very funny, as always : )

Date: July 02, 2008 Title: Chapter 39: Roy

Oooo...drama, intrigue...and silliness.  You know, I wouldn't mind seeing a reappearance from Roy (as long as there is no angst or threat of JAM breakup involved).  I only wish we could have "seen" the Roy/Jim meeting.  I'm sure that would have been interesting.

Author's Response: I don't think there is ANYTHING that Roy could do to derail these two... there's no going back for Pam. And I decided that it would be funnier to have others react to Roy because that would be funnier. A Jim/Roy conversation just doesn't seem funny to me or anything that could be summed up in a cold opening.That's just my opinion.... Thanks!

"How… am I alive? And… why I am talking
to a muscular mouse in a cape?"
  Now THAT is funny : )  You're on a roll!

Kev!  So glad you're feeling inspired.  This was a gem--so funny.  Great characterizations.  And did I say it was funny?  It was funny :D  Btw, my dad would have been 89 in June.  A toast to both of them :)


Author's Response: Wow! Definitely, Nan! I know they both had quite an effect on us. And thanks, I'm really glad you liked it!

Big BIG smile, K!  I can't imagine how you came up with this one : )

You're just feeling all warm and fuzzy because the strike's over obviously!  Awwww...I liked that a lot.  You never know, eh?  We can hope : ) 



Author's Response: I'd like to see it. I think you're right, the great news made me feel better. Even though we only get six more episodes and they won't air until April.... but I better take what I can get, right? Thanks!

Date: November 08, 2007 Title: Chapter 21: Schrute on a Shingle

I absolutely agree with Shass, K.  It's talented writers like the two of you who make my work day infinitely more enjoyable.  The Strike has me bummed, too.  For what it's worth, I fired off two letters and an e-mail to the powers that be at NBC, etc. yesterday.  It's all very frustrating.  Thanks for another great installment.

Author's Response: That\'s great, Nanreg. I gotta do that. I signed a petition at the WGA site yesterday, but I have to do more. And thank you. You people make me feel so good about writing these things.

K, your cold openings are like little movies in my head (keeping the voices company)  ; )  "I would already have done that if Mose hadn't broken the mic I had.  He was playing with it the night you and Pam stayed over...Jim looks at the camera in alarm."   Oh, that pervy Mose.  Hee hee hee hee : )


Author's Response: lol.. thanks. Yeah, Mose is hilarious... he's skeevy and lovable. Sorta. How is that even possible?
