Dwight's Cousin: Home at Last

Amy Unger — Tue, 21 Jun 2011 17:18:00 GMT

Some of you may remember that Devil Duck took a hiatus to travel with forum member Customsteve01 nearly 2 years ago. He finally made it home, but I gotta say, he looks a little tired and beaten up. I'll bet he had a great time, though.

Where is that Dwight character, anyway?

The Dwight and Dilbert Collection

Amy Unger — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 19:37:00 GMT

Finally, a place to see all the escapades of the traveling ducks in one place. Told you I'd get to it! I'll be adding more photos as they come in. If you want to be on one of the stops, just drop me a note!

Dwight and Dilbert: Pool Side

Amy Unger — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 16:49:00 GMT

The Disappearing Duo have been spotted down south in Jacksonville, Florida basking in the sun with Mr. Tech's adorable doggy, Diesel. What a well trained pooch to balance both of them at the same time. He looks hungry, though... hopefully the ducks survived in tact for their short trek to Mississippi, where I'm sure the Family Dtel will welcome them with open arms. I can't wait to see what adventures unfold! Can you believe they have been gone for 3 and a half years??

And did I really just type Dwight Dilbert Disappearing Duo Doggy Diesel Duck Dtel? I feel like I'm hosting Sesame Street brought to you by the letter "D."

It's Not Even Winter Yet

Amy Unger — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 20:26:00 GMT

I don't think Mother Nature received her 2010 calendar, or there's no way she would allow so much snow in central Indiana before winter even hits. Or maybe she found out I bought a rear-wheel drive BMW this summer, and thinks she's pretty doggone funny.

Either way, we got a little bit last night, so I made myself a Dwight snowman. Because I miss the little feller.

You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

We haven't heard from Dwight or Dilbert in a long time. Someone here is getting angry.

Dwight and Dilbert: Not-Quite-Spring Break

Amy Unger — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 16:20:00 GMT

The traveling duo has been spotted again, escaping from the deluge of snow to bask in the Florida sun. Lucky ducks.

Spotted at Ron Jon surf shop on Cocoa Beach, they were apparently shopping for some gear to hang six. No doubt they listened to Beach Boys tunes on Klipsch speakers there as well. Doubly lucky ducks.

I remember my last trip to Cocoa Beach. I was just shy of 16. Allow me to reflect on that a moment.....

Thanks.

Art for Art's Sake

Have you ever looked up at the clock thinking it was maybe 10am and realizing it's almost time to go home? I love when that happens. Trippy.

So I will part today, on this most random of days, with an abstract painting by Steven, age 4. I think it might be a portrait of Dwight the Missing Duck.

Precursor

Amy Unger — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 19:01:00 GMT

Two years ago yesterday Dwight the Duck was seen over-indulging at forum member seti's house. I thought we'd revisit that glorious day, pre-carnage.

Don't forget to thaw your turkey!

Dwight and Dilbert Dream Big

Amy Unger — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 18:19:00 GMT

For those of you new to my blog, allow me to introduce Dwight and Dilbert, the traveling waterfowl. These rubber duckies have been wandering the country for almost 2 years now, and have seen some pretty amazing sites while in the care of our dedicated forum members. It gives us all a chance to get to know each other better, and learn about places found in each other's back yards.

Last week, the twosome were seen marveling at the Space Shuttle Atlantis as it was getting ready for launch at NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building, the largest one story building in the world. The kind of place where we can finally learn whether or not a duck's quack echos.

Dwight and Dilbert: Gone with the Wind

Amy Unger — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 19:59:00 GMT

The saga of the traveling ducks continues. I've been jealous of their adventures so far, but never so much as I am now because they have been spotted swimming near a Little Rock landmark featured in the opening credits of one of my all-time favorite movies (seen at the 1:35 mark). In fact, Pugh's Old Mill is believed to be the only remaining structure from that film.

All of a sudden I'm in the mood for some popcorn.

Dwight and Dilbert: A Sundae Stroll

Amy Unger — Mon, 25 May 2009 14:00:00 GMT

After nearly a 5 month hiatus, the ducks were spotted at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, absorbing some culture in the form of a giant spoon and 1200 pound cherry. No word as to whether or not they had whipped cream with that.

Next stop: Cabot, Arkansas!

New Klipsch Website...coming soon!

Amy Unger — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 21:07:00 GMT

You may have noticed some sporadic blogging from me these past few weeks. Rest assured I am still here, and still willing to be your window into the World of Klipsch. I have been preoccupied due to setting a pretty steep deadline for myself in completing my part of the Jamo website redesign, which is progressing nicely!

Soon I will be freed up to concentrate on Klipsch.com and the myriad of things we would like to see for this site - including more interaction with our customers, focus on our history, and better definition of our place in the speaker industry - all good things we are very excited about!

In the meantime, where are those pesky ducks?? Here's an alternate shot from their last stop with forum member Tom Adams:

Dwight and Dilbert: Local Cuisine

Amy Unger — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 18:42:00 GMT

It turns out the ducks weren't lost at all, but rather savoring the milder Georgia weather. Good idea, since they are now on their way to Minnesota. I hope they are still wearing their stockings.

Here they are taking a look at, and a whiff of, Tom's "almost world famous" collard greens. Although not a common staple for Hoosiers, these greens are quite popular throughout the south. They even have a festival held in their honor not too far from the location of this picture.

I can't say I'm too fond of anything green, leafy, and above refrigerator temperature, but these actually look quite tasty.

I think Dwight's mom and little brother are getting worried.

Dwight: A Look Back

Amy Unger — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 15:56:00 GMT

To get everyone in the mood for tomorrow, let's take a look back at Dwight's visit with forum member Iain (seti) last Thanksgiving. Here you can see two lovely birds posing for the camera. Be sure to view the carnage that followed a mere few hours later.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
