   Someone’s got a good sense of humor!
   And also, the first thing I noticed about this picture was how inconsistent the capitalization was.

   BigM – Me too! And I thought I was just being a grammar nerd.

   This is fabulous.

   The capitalization issues bugged me too. Who knew Office fans were so uptight! :)

   Dwight must be finally taking his trip to Mordor. Good for him. :)

   I can’t help but wonder if there is someone out there with that name….

    With both Dwight Schrute and Troy Brinkman in the same frame…not likely that they’re real.

    @staplepuller – I must Google ‘Dwight Schrute’ immediately to see if anyone else comes up beside Rainn Wilson.

    ….and the capitalization bothered me, too. Just in case we’re keeping track of who is anal retentive about such things.

    When my cousins and I were kids, we had a fake name that we’d ask to have paged when we were at the beach. Our imaginary friend was Mike Neckerchop.

    If you look up http://www.howmanyofme.com it says
    there are 89,241 people in the US with the first name Dwight and fewer than 114 people with the last name Schrute and 1 or less people with the name Dwight Schrute…

    @2: Haha, I did too! I didn’t even see ‘Dwight Schrute’ for a minute, because I was focused on that!

    Oh wow, I’m a nerd :)

    Haha that’s awesome! The funny thing is my brother and I were at this airport about 2 weeks ago, and we noticed how often they make the announcements over the intercom in the robotic voice: for ex “Dwight Schrute, you have a message waiting at the Paging Assistance Location” and we were actually thinking of leaving a message for Bill Buttlicker! No joke! We were too chicken….haha

    @14: haha, I had the same question. When the other comment noted that it couldn’t be real because of him I googled the name. I have no idea who that is.
    And just to reiterate everyone’s comments, that IS some messed up capitalization.

    Ha, that’s great!

    That reminds me of the one time I was at Logan’s with some friends for dinner. They had the buzzers for when your table was ready and they would also page you in case you were outside. While we were waiting, the P.A. announced “Froman, Abe Froman. Party of 3.” My friends and I immediately started laughing.

    At least they didn’t put Fart for his middle name…..:)
