Schrute Bucks

Dwight: Don’t you want to earn Schrute bucks?

Stanley: No. In fact, I’ll give you a billion Stanley nickels if you never talk to me again.

Dwight: What’s the ratio of Stanley nickels to Schrute bucks?

Stanley: The same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns.

The quote will be better once "Schrute bucks" shows up as a Googlable item. (Currently no results.)

I wants me some Schrute bucks. They might motivate me to do my job better.

Updated with dialogue (thanks Izzy!) Friday PM. Apparently, I became a Googlable item.

Wasting my 15 minutes

I occasionally check the hit counter I installed as a freebie a year or so ago. I tend to get 15-20 hits a day, mostly very brief. More on days when I post something, but nothing like the circulation of other folks I know. I got mentioned recently at Right Reason recently as an HT in a literary meme (wish it were original to me -- thanks Marlowe!) and got several comments.



So, I happened to check Statcounter today and lo and behold, there were 841 hits! Most brief, but some folks poked around for a while.






The source of all those hits? Well, 99 of 100 of them (all that Statcounter analyzes for free) came from people doing exactly what Izzy and I were doing last night. Looking for Shrute bucks. Izzy has found the dialogue I was looking for and I'll be updating the earlier entry.



3 thoughts:
1. I wish I'd written something more profound.
2. I agree with Izzy that it's a shame to waste my 15 minutes of fame this way, but c'est la vie.
3. Lots of people out there wants themselves some Schrute bucks (or Stanley nickles--either will do.)

Memorable Quotes:

"I'm not superstitious; but I am a little stitious."

"A woman shouldn't have to be hit by a car to learn that she has rabies. But that is where we are in America, and that does not sit right with me. And that is why I am hosting a fun run race for the cure for rabies. To raise awareness for the fact that there is a cure rabies... a disease that has been largely eradicated in the U.S., but not very many people know that. "
