This is actually old news, but what the heck, until The Office tosses the fans something, some kind of bone, over the summer break, it’ll have to do. Brian Baumgartner was in Scranton over the Memorial Day weekend. He was the guest of honor at a fundraiser for the Albright Memorial Library. You can [ ... ] ...

The latest Office episode, “The Chump” has provided the Scranton Chamber Of Commerce with a memorable slogan that just might catch on: “The Paris of northeastern Pennysylvania.” I can see how this will grow in popularity, finally reaching a point where the city of Paris begins to refer to itself as… the “Scranton of [ ... ] ...

For Secretary’s Day, Michael Scott takes Erin to a fancy restaurant in Scranton called Hayworth’s. Well, there is no Hayworth’s in Scranton, which by now is not surprising. If they had used a real Scranton restaurant, that would have made writing this “Scrantonicity” easy. The column practically would have written itself. But that’s OK; [ ... ] ...

When the gang from Dunder-Mifflin decided to hit a “Happy Hour,” they didn’t just go to a dinky, hole-in-the-wall pub like nearby Poor Richard’s; they also didn’t bother with trendy Farley’s in downtown Scranton.

This Scrantonicity was going to be the prettiest Scrantonicity… of all the Scrantonicities. I had “insider information” for quite awhile that the show was going to send a camera crew to film the local St. Patrick’s Day parade, including a Dunder-Mifflin float. Talk about a slam-dunk! The parade is one of the country’s largest, [ ... ] ...
