I love the caption on this picture:
“Where’s the beet farm?”
Apparently there is a town in Illinois named DWIGHT! Thanks to Rocky and Sean for sharing!

LITO reader Peter James Patrick had an awesome experience meeting John Krasinski during the taping of Late Night with Conan O’Brian.
That’s Peter on the left in the blue shirt.
The backstory is that John is just an incredibly nice guy: Peter’s mom works for NBC Universal, and had sent a DVD backstage for John to sign for Peter. But John insisted on meeting him in person, so Peter and his friend got to go backstage and talk for a while! John claimed he didn’t want to ‘ruin the beautiful artwork’ on the DVD, so he gave Peter his press pass and signed that.
If you’re on Facebook, check out Peter’s profile picture and friend him! While you’re at it, join the LITO Facebook group that Adam started way back in the day!

Responses have been trickling in from LITO readers who attended Saturday’s Scranton event. Remember to check out their new official website at www.TheOfficeConvention.com . Be sure to view the pictures and video in the Media section.
DJ John Webster writes that the party with Angela Kinsey and Brian Baumgartner didn’t stop until the wee hours of the morning. Check out that post and this one for lots of Scranton visit pictures!
My friend Andy was in Scranton, as well. He and his friend had an all-around terrific experience. Although the line was long, line-dwellers were kept satisifed and smiling with soft-pretzel coupons, stickers, and entertainment by a live band. Andy told me that Brian and Angela were REALLY friendly, chatting up the line while signing autographs, telling stories, talking to people on cell phones, and just generally being awesome. He met people who had made the trip from places like Canada and Wisconsin, and some southern states as well. He got there a bit later, but some fans had been camped out since 7:30 AM, and they heard a brief speech Brian and Angela gave before they started signing autographs. (Pictures coming soon!)
I also have heard from Michelle Dempsey, one of the Convention organizers. The visit was a smashing success and she said the stars really loved “The Bog” in Scranton.
Here is a clip from the afternoon event:
