Hello Everybody!

Wow – what a month! I am now a grandfather of six instead of five. My newest is Penelope Dae, better known as “Daesie!” My son, Kris and his wife Rachel are the proud parents, and I’m just as happy as I can be for them. My grandsons Kenner and Jack are happy big brothers, and everything seems to be going very well. Of course, Nana is super excited, and so is Gukka (that’s my wife and I)!

There’s a lot of other stuff going on, but hey – when you got something like a new...

MOST UNUSUAL AUTOGRAPH REQUEST -
JOHN SCHLITT HOLDS NEW WORLD RECORD
 


On Friday, June 18, 2010, a world record was set for 'Most Unusual Request for an Autograph by a Fan' in the tiny town of Wilson in northern Wisconsin.

Following a stellar performance by Schlitt at Calvary Assembly of God, fans lined up to speak with the singer and have him sign autographs, as is the usual modus operandi. However, a most unusual request was made of Schlitt by a fan during this time.

Having no other means of obtaining the signature except for what was in his immediate possession, the fan proceeded to hand Schlitt a Dorito (nacho cheese, of course).

While taken aback at the strange request, Schlitt, ever willing to please, proceeded to carefully sign the Dorito with grace and dignity.

Upon review, it was decided (by the webmasters at JohnWSchlitt.com) that the Nacho Cheese Dorito autograph qualifies as the MOST Unusual Request for an Autograph by a Fan, and henceforth awards the honor and world record to John Schlitt.

CONGRATULATIONS, MR. SCHLITT! MAY YOU CARRY THIS TITLE WITH PRIDE FOR MANY YEARS TO COME!
