John in Elle magazine
I know this news is a little old for some of you Office fanatics, but I was trying to hold out until I could get my own copy of the magazine. No such luck …
John Krasinski appears in the September issue of Elle magazine. For a big beautiful scan of the article, head on over to Jenn’s post over at the LiveJournal Office community.
Update 9/4: peopleareshapes at the LiveJournal Office community has posted previously unpublished photos from the Elle shoot. Check out the photos here.

Season 3 promo video
NBC has posted another Season 3 promo video! (No longer available)
Before you get too excited, there is no new Season 3 footage in the video, just a montage of JAM highlights from last season. Still sweet, though.
I think I’m going to need to be hospitalized soon for Season-3-teaser-itis. Wonder if we can get a group rate?
Thanks to rspad and Lauren for the tip!
Patrice Oneal on Letterman tonight
Sorry for the lateness of this post, but I just caught this at MySpace: Patrice Oneal (“Lonny”) will be on ‘Late Show with David Letterman’ tonight. This is a repeat of his July 17th appearance.
You can also catch Patrice at MySpace and at his website.
He also has some August appearances at Carolines in New York.
Jenna’s MySpace bulletin
Did you MySpacers catch Jenna’s bulletin whiz by yesterday morning?
It read in part:
I’m currently shooting episode 3 of the new season of The Office and because I’ve been sitting behind my desk all day I only dressed the top half of myself. I’m wearing sweat pants and Ugg boots and it’s awesome! If only I could have done that when I was a real receptionist.
Remember that when you’re watching Episode 3 … ;)
