SCRANTONICITY

1. Closin' Up Shop

A fond farewell last night to one of the all-time great shows.. and even though it's time has probably come... (thats what she said) I'm sorta sad to see it go, now that its gone. Great finale, as far as finales go.. they tied up the loose ends, gave you a little closure on almost all of the characters (loved Creed's farewell the best) and of course some classic, Office-type moments. First and foremost from the head honcho himself.. Michael Scott. I loved the "I feel like I'm watching my kids grow up, and marry each other. What more could a parent want?" .. but the best had to be his grand entrance... obv..

Shit just never gets old... 

Anyway, lots of retrospectives all week long.. and a lot of this ground was covered in that hr long special last night on NBC.. but for those wanted to furthur stroll down "that's what she said lane".. here ya go:

8. And In Other Sports News

This is why organized sports are so important for young kids

This is what teammates are for
 

This is why you "act like you been there before" 

This is Why It's Awesome To Be From Boston

And This

And This

And This

And THIS is Why It Sucks To Be From Toronto 

And of course this... (on a side note)

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford caught in crack smoking video scandal 

A group of Canadian drug dealers are asking for 'six figures' for an explosive video showing Toronto Mayor Rob Ford smoking crack cocaine. Reporters from the Toronto Star newspaper and the website Gawker said they watched the video and concluded the man in it was Ford. The mayor, meanwhile, dismissed the reports as 'ridiculous.'

 

Of course.. our Mayor sounds like he just smoked crack at all times.. but as far as we know.. he doesnt. And that's why we heart him.

9. Story Time

In case you thought Charlie Murphy used up all his good True Hollywood Stories on Chappelle show.. he just wanted to clarify.. he's got stories, yo.

10. It's Like I'm Cumming All Day

Men with guitars are more attractive to women: study

(Relaxnews)—Researchers at the University of Bretagne-Sud and the University of Paris-Sud enlisted the aid of an attractive young man who approached 300 women between the ages of 18 and 22 and ask them for their phone number, according to the Counsel & Heal website on Tuesday. A third of time he carried a guitar case, a third of the time he carried a gym bag and another third he was empty-handed. He was the least successful with the women when holding the sports bag, gathering phone numbers only nine percent of the time.

Interesting study.. I think THIS GUY would agree... but I think THIS GUY would not.

11. Sounds About Right

In case you were wondering what the secret ingredient is, in Dogfish's Grateful Dead Beer... why you really shouldn't have wondered about that because the answer is pretty obvious...

12. I'd Buy That For A Dollar

OK, this is almost enough to make we want to move to Detroit.. but then I remember, it's Detroit.

Detroit's RoboCop statue is almost done, and it's goddamn majestic

by Marah Eakin May 14, 2013

Back in 2011, the brave citizens of Detroit (along with a bunch of assholes on Kickstarter) raised enough money to erect a giant RoboCop statue somewhere in the motor city. More than two years and a string of “where the heck are we going to put this thing” battles later, the statue is finally close to completion. The 10-foot-tall statue is currently in its foam components stage and should be bronzed in the near future. Once that’s done, Imagination Station, the statue’s makers, will perfect its look and then, hopefully, place it somewhere in the city by late next summer.
Imagination Station posted a series of pics of the statue in progress online over the weekend and, honestly, it’s goddamn majestic. Once bronzed and mounted on some sort of base, the completed work should keep Detroit free from crime for all eternity—or until someone spray-paints it.

(Not Exactly) Full Show Friday: Page McConnell and Trey Anastasio With The Allman Brothers Band @ Beacon Theatre 2009

Why don't we try to "complete the set" by crankin' up the way back machine to 1973....

Watch the 1973 version of the Allman Brothers Band perform in Macon:

Side note: nothing really gets me cranked up for summer like the ABB. All of a sudden I have a desire to hit the blacktop at Great Woods and pound some keg beer. Wooey!

Well, that's all for now, folks.. Have a great weekend! And just remember the immortal words of Dwight Schrute...

"I have no feeling in my fingers or penis, but I think it was worth it."
