Written By Liz Salmi

Funny.I was watching an old episode of The Office tonight (pre-Pam and Jim getting married).Kevin had a skin cancer scare. Here's the transcript:

(Michael walks up)Michael: There you are. Good news. Did some research. It turns out that 98% of people with skin cancer fully recover.Kevin: Still scary.Michael: Yeah. But it's not brain cancer. And it shouldn't stop us from having fun. You know what they say the best medicine is.Kevin: Well, the doctor said a combination of Interferon and Dacarbazine.Michael: And laughter also.Toby: I don't really think people are in the laughing mood.

I about died... So funny.Can anyone find this clip on YouTube? I will give you a dollar.
