JRS or Bust: 3 Days!



Awesome photo I found on Alan Mercer's Profile, best John Schneider pictures I have seen to date.
One of my favorite K.D. Lang songs is Three Days.  Well, I have 3 days that I hate to be alive. Today, Tomorrow and the Next Day, lol. This is killing me! I have been in a state of mental shock.  I have busied myself with purchasing the necessary pens for autographing special items that I created, but the truth of the matter is: After 31 years I am finally going to meet John Schneider!
One thing is certain, as I have been viewing my John Schneider media in preparation for the MegaCon is that (I have loaded my MP3 player with all things John Schneider musical - Yeehaa!) Sorrell Booke and James Best both should have at least been nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Comedic Performance on the Dukes of Hazzard. Mr. Booke was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Performance in a Supporting Role by an Actor for: "Dr. Kildare" (1961). (NBC).  For episode "What's God to Julius?". However, these two actors were consistently hilarious as their namesakes Boss Hogg and Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane. Yes, they had some hilarious lines, but it was their skill as actors that never wavered show after show.
We all know my feelings about John Schneider and the Emmy's, if not: http://t.co/43rrHHp. I am a life-long fan, but I have enjoyed watching John grow more skillful as an actor and can't wait to see his work on the upcoming film Doonby.  I'm hoping he will finally have a use for the paste wax.

See y'all at MegaCon - Yeehaa!

JRS or BUST: 9 Days!

Awesome photo I found on Alan Mercer's Profile, best John Schneider pictures and article I have seen to date.
Is it me or does the picture in my JRS or Bust diary seem to be getting bigger and bigger, lol.

Last year I attended Star Wars Celebration V and being neurotic and crazy, as you now know that I am after reading my Blog, I created an agenda of what I was going to do every second that I was there.  I actually hate having to punch a clock, at work or at play (I'm like Robert Redford that way I guess, lol.) but I wanted to see as much as possible during that Star Wars extravaganza. Now with John Schneider appearing at MegaCon Orlando, I find myself tempted to plan out my day.

Now, I know that there are going to be lots of other wonderful actors and artists attending this Mega Con. Stan Lee is going to be there for goodness sakes! (I also collect Spider-man comics.) Several Star Trek alumni, yes I admit it I like Star Trek, too. (Notice, I used the word like. To all you Star Wars fans out there, I am not being unfaithful.) But let's get one thing straight right here, right now. I AM ONLY GOING TO SEE JOHN SCHNEIDER! At Star Wars Celebration there were many things to see, at MegaCon Orlando there is but one objective: to see as much John Schneider as I can over a two day period.

Chill out, I'm not planning on stalking the man...just staring at him for two days straight. My Orlando MegaCon agenda follows:
