Some of you may have caught this on The Late Show with David Letterman on Friday night, but if you didn’t, here’s Rainn Wilson (you might know him as Dwight Shrute from The Office) talking about Deschutes County, among other things.

We interviewed Wilson a few weeks ago before he gave a presentation at the Old Stone Church and asked him about his second home here in Central Oregon, but we didn’t hear anything about this snake incident. We also like how he ran into a Deschutes County sheriff’s deputy named Jeremiah Johnson. Awesome.
