Because I'm still close to the UK, I'm usually identified as English, and that's fine with me (although I didn't celebrate St George's Day on Thursday!). My nationality is British, and that's probably how I'd be known further from home where people aren't so familiar with the differences between the Home Nations.

Oh! Hey! You guys remember...next month we will have the second annual Moonshine 400!! Be getting ready!! Garrett will be defending his championship but I imagine there's a few of us around, who will have something to say about that!

I am not Roger...but Go Chicago Cubs Go!!!!

yes, it's good to see you back bud! Don't be a stranger!

Hey y'all. I've been around here and there, just not logged in. Sorry to abandon y'all. I saw my name and it caught my eye. LOL. Thank you for remembering me. Sounds fun! Though I haven't been on my computer as much as I was a year ago, so I may not be able to post as much as before. I'm always ready to extend my winning streak.

If you two need any technical advice just let me know.

If my math is correct, that's 10am my time which is fine with me. I'll be at work, so wouldn't normally have a chance to check HNet mid-morning.

I'm a night owl, so that won't be a problem. Mid-week it is. How about a Wednesday or Thursday around 2am my time? It'll probably be sometime this summer. I have a lot going on right now. Lots of doctor's appointments. If all goes well, the summer should be pretty quiet. Good time to do the update.

They're virtually unknown over here, and so far I've only seen them at this show. The guy goes by the name 'Cranky Yankee'. I've just checked his Facebook page, and apparently he'll be closer to where I live a couple of times over the summer.

Why Are The British So Eccentric In War? That's the question posed in this video. It tells the story of why you can always make tea in a British tank, and of the soldier who went into battle in Operation Market Garden (the failed attempt to take the bridge in Arnhem as dramatized in the movie 'A Bridge Too Far') with an umbrella.

Garrett is definitely a heavy hitter here on the HN....been here longer than me.

I hope you have a good weekend Garrett. You mean a lot to all of us here in Hazzard County!

I am sorry you missed the pro bike race. Glad you missed the rain though.

Thank you Roger and Hobie! You made my day . They'll be racing at Talladega this weekend. Sadly I'll be out so I won't watch it, but I'll be rooting on #9 as always!

And that's a fact!

That's fine. I'm happy with anything. It wouldn't be NASCAR without you.

Thanks Garrett. 🤗

I am sorry to hear that Skipper. Sorry for your loss.

Well hopefully Dorothy is back in Kansas, because we are now back to Kansas this weekend. NASCAR Cup Series at Kansas Speedway Live Leaderboard, Results, & Updates

Garrett takes defending his championship very seriously, but wish you all best of luck.

It's amazing because you are amazing!

I'm just about to start communicating with the Spirits.....Milwaukee's Best Ice.....last wk. it was Natural Ice but I think I like MWBI better!

That just doesn't seem possible!

Hey bud, have you seen or heard from Roger? He's been gone a while. I think.

Thank you Roger. I didn't realize that we have reached 100 pages! That is amazing!

Thank you Hobie

Good to hear from you Garrett. How are your Cubs doing?

NASCAR is at my favorite track today! It's Bristol, baby! (Darrell Waltrip use to say that.) Anyway, it's a track I've been at. Not for NASCAR, but when the Dukes had their Dukefest there. Those were good times. What to Watch: Bristol | NASCAR NASCAR Cup Series a Bristol Motor Speedway Live Leaderboard, Results, & Updates (Today's starting line up) NASCAR Cup Series Standings & Stats - Official Site Of NASCAR (Standings as of right now) Alex Bowman (#48 Hendrick) will return today after missing four or so races due to vertigo.

My guess is they don't know how to figure the century's!!

Just realized how much this car looks like Dale Earnhardts wrangler car.

I've just checked out their website - luraycaverns.com - and they're very impressive. One thing that confused me - if they were discovered in 1878, why does the tour guide wear an 18th century costume (I'm quoting the video)? That would date from at least 79 years before the caves were discovered!

The Cooters in the Smokies is pretty nice too!

We went down to our daughter's in Winchester Virginia Thursday (home of Patsy Cline) but didn't really have any plans to do anythjng in particular. We go there at least twice a year and have pretty much done everything in the area but had never been to Luray Caverns. (It is unbelievable!) When we were leaving I remembered that Cooter's was somewhere near there so my daughter looked it up and we were only 7 miles away! We didn't stay long because I was the only person of 6 who was interested but it was incredible. I almost want to call it a spiritual experience but that bothers me a little to use that word since I believe in God but that place is definitely Hazzard Heaven on Earth. I am going to keep an eye on the schedule and go down again next time they have a big event. I hate to travel but who knows what will happen to the place after Ben passes on to Hazzard Heaven so I definitely want to go back for something big. BTW Ben wasn't there. He lives 45 minutes away though. I tried to get some people to join HazzardNet but see they haven't yet. I am still in awe over Cooter's. You would think that you couldn't top something like Luray's Cavern. It is one of the most amazing natural wonders on Earth. But Crazy Cooter pulled it off just a few minutes later.

Happy Easter to all my cousins in Hazzard County!

I think we need more details, Roger.

Yes he did win Michael Keaton

I do too! I sure hope he's doing well. I hope he comes back soon!

I'm watching the one where Lulu is kidnapped and the Duke Boys are set to rescue her! ( right now Bo's unconcious in a trailer heading down hill!)

Watching dirt bike races right now. They are racing in Detroit.....Lions Stadium

Corn Dogs are a Southern favorite! Remember when Rosco was going to get a corn dog?

Thank you Hobie and Roger. That all means a lot to me.

You sure started a successful thread Garrett. Congratulations on 100 pages!

GREENVILLE Construction Company It's a place mentioned in 'Along Came a Duke'.

I'm about to watch Jeopardy and the news and then......you guessed it! I'm about to speak with the spirits in a little bit....... 2 Milwaukee's Best Ice that I have left! I'll probably go out and get more tomorrow! I hope Garrett's ok and I sure hope our supreme superior leader is doing well! I miss both of them! In the words of Roscoooo P. Cooootrane! " Good news good news! " I've just discovered, when I went to get my beer from the frig....I've got not 2.....but 3!! ( I will have to go out and get more tomorrow though!! .....to prepare for DOHD and the weekend! )

The Dukes Of Hazzard is QUITE good.

Dukes is all about KINFOLK.

The General Lee was painted orange IN Cooter’s garage.

Yes, it does. I nearly pointed it out in my original post. Here's how the car looked in the movie. Although I didn't get to see a Hazzard patrol car, there were a couple of police cars this year. This one had a sign on the rear fender saying "To Protect and Cruise" ... ... while this one said "To Punish and Enslave" .

About three years ago, the All American Car, Truck & Bike Show moved from September to April, and I missed it! Then it seemed to clash with other events, so this is the first time I've been back since 2010. I saw pictures of one of the shows I missed in a magazine, and there was a Hazzard patrol car there. Sadly, it wasn't there this year. The General Lee was also absent, but one of the late arrivals was this yellow Road Runner just like Daisy drove in the early episodes. NB. I don't know any of the people in the pictures - it was virtually impossible getting shots without someone in the way! There was also a very clean 1973 Ford F-100 that would have suited Uncle Jesse if it had been white instead of blue, and a white Cadillac convertible that turned out to be a 1965 model (the interior was similar to Boss' even though it was red). Luckily, there were plenty of other cars I hadn't seen before, including this pair of Starsky and Hutch Gran Torinos complete with lights and sirens. One of my other favorites was this Vanishing Point Challenger. As well as the burnouts, they also used a pair of big rigs (it was a Mack and Ford for anyone who's interested) to rip a couple of compact cars apart. I nearly forgot - after seeing people eat them in movies and TV shows for years, I had my first corn dog today. We might have imported McDonalds, Burger King, Starbucks etc., but it's the first time I've seen corn dogs for sale over here (the guy selling them was from Minnesota, and he wasn't aware of any other sellers). Now I've got to get me a chili dog and some grits .

We love you and miss you cousin. Happy birthday!
