| Greetings from down south!
My name’s Jon/Jonathan, but if there are too many Jon’s here you can call me Coach for short. I’m not really a coach of anything (it’s just a nickname someone gave me and it stuck).
A little about me: I’m 25, from Georgia, and am a very recent fan of LHOTP. I didn’t really get around to watching the series seriously until late last year when I bought the DVD sets. Starting this year, I’ve begun reading the books and I’m currently on the fourth one and enjoying it a lot. One of my hobbies is video editing and a lot of my recent projects revolve around the Little House TV series.
(I made the parody horror trailer and Hamster Dance video someone linked to here, which is how I found you guys in the first place)
So feel free to throw eggs or call me a snipe or do whatever you do to haze the new fans. See you around the prairie!

| Thank you all for the kind welcomes!
Rhonda, that's great about your son! Most of my stuff is just for personal hobby, but I did get a chance to help film/edit a wedding and also worked with a small group that did a brief documentary on the history of one of the local churches where I used to live.

I think you are going to fit in here great! For one thing, I love your signature...Hoss!  I loved him on Bonanza & he was my favorite of all the sons.
I loved your videos and telling from them and your intro., I think our guys (Larry, Rob & Jacob) are going to have to have a fourth musketeer!
What part of Georgia are you from? I have an aunt and uncle that live near Warner Robins.
We are all crazy around here so jump right in...the water's fine!

| Misti, Michael Landon was the reason I started watching Bonanza, but I have to say that Hoss is the reason I continue to watch it on TVLand. He's my favorite of the sons, too.
As for what part of Georgia, I think I'm about maybe two hours southeast of Warner Robins and about an hour west of Savannah. I'm in Tattnall County.

| Welcome, Jon. Glad you discovered LHotP and this forum. Thanks for the great videos. I just watched "The Love of Johnny Johnson" earlier today, and I thought of the Hamster Dance during the scene where Laura, Mary, and Carrie were dancing.

| Thank you for the welcome and I'm glad you liked that video! I remember the scene you're talking about, where Laura ducks under their arms and swings forward. That was actually the last clip I added to the timeline, now that I think about it.

| Welcome, Coach. Good to have another guy on board. Now we're only outnumbered by 193 to 5.

This reminds me of a scene on Cheers:
Coach: "Hey Sam, have you and Diane thought of a name for your baby yet?"
Sam: "Not yet, Coach."
Coach: "Then I really hope you'll consider Barry."
Sam: "Why?"
Coach: "Because Barry is great at thinking up names. He's the one who gave me my nickname."
Norm: "What's so great about that? You were a coach so he called you Coach."
Coach: "You know, Norm, you may be right. I always thought he called me Coach because I never flew first class."

Yes, but progress is progress!
Thanks for the welcome!
Very hilarious Cheers quote. Come to think of it, I've never ridden first class either. I wonder if that's why they call me that.

You'll learn very quickly that Rob is one of our resident comedians.

Maybe there's hope for all of us! I've tried to get some other people interested in the show... with mixed results. Thank you for the welcome!
