I've never seen his shows (I'm not sure if they were shown over here), but I'm familiar with him through memes! It's so odd for me listening to Thomas being narrated by an American. The fictional setting of the Island of Sodor is so British (it's meant to be located in the Irish Sea between the English mainland and the Isle of Man). BTW. Last weekend marked the 80th anniversary of The Railway Stories (AKA. Thomas and Friends) - there's an article about it here. At least the music's good to dance to.

Of all the episodes, I think he came closest on " The Duke Scam-Scam" There are one or two others that came pretty close though, so, just my opinion. What do you guys think? Hey! I know! What about the one where they go back to the farm and the crooks are looking for them in their helicopter? Remember?

I don't think there was a hawk. Rosco just needed an excuse to fire the gun while pretending to be a "numb-head". It was in 'A Baby for the Dukes'.

Rosco was in the back seat of the bad guy's car and wanted to warn the Dukes they were in danger because the bad guys were following them. So he shot in the air to warn them but pretended he was stupid and doing something else. "That's that chicken hawk that's been killing all them chickens!" Now that I think of it I don't remember them showing the hawk but I'm still submitting it anyways.....cause I'm a rebel who never obeys the rules!

That was when LS (Lisa Sue) Pritchard wanted to make New Hazzard but Luke figured out her plan. "Farewell Hazzard".

Hey snakes a very clean animals ! No noise and easy to care for!

How about the time when they thought Boss had won and Jesse had given up and Luke called to see about how he was taking it and Daisy said, " Not good, not good at all." ( or is that the same one you're talking about. ......I get some of them mixed up, I'm embarrassed to say! )

That's true. Wasn't that when that woman came in and offered to buy up Hazzard and turn it into something newer, better, etc.? She was really going to strip mine the place I think. ( Can't remember the name)

Snake Harmon was an uncivilized animal but biologically human so I'll count the snake he put in the car that slithered around Bo's accelerator foot.

I suppose we should include Uncle Jesse's pet raccoon, Smokey, from the animated series.

Uncle Jesse's chicken, Rodney........" Well, get over there Rodney, if you want some." ( Jesse was feeding his chickens)

Bo wrestling a gator underwater

Uncle Jesse's Mule Maudeen

Jesse spotted a big buck and said "Git on home!" I remember thinking to myself "he is home Uncle Jesse, you're not" lol

I'm sure I've asked before but I can't find it, but what were the 3 wooden plaques in Boss' office at the Boor's Nest? 1. One bad turn deserves another 2. Do unto others before they do it unto you. 3. ??????? * * I'd appreciate any help finding the 3rd one and if you know it, the episode that shows it. I asked a long time ago and thought later on, I'll find it but never have.

George Russell took a very impressive pole for Mercedes in Singapore yesterday with an in-form Max Verstappen in second ahead of title leader Oscar Piastri. Williams, who had qualified 12th and 13th, had both cars disqualified due to illegal rear wing openings, so started at the back. Oscar's team mate Lando Norris got a good start from fifth and managed to take third after some minor contact. Charles Leclerc also got away well and got to fourth ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Antonelli. There was a bit of place swapping in the mid-field, but it's a hard to overtake in Singapore. Despite a spin by Nico Hulkenberg on lap 45, the race avoided any form of safety car for the second year in a row. Toward the end, Lando was closing on Max, but just couldn't get past. At the flag, George Russell took his second win of the year ahead of Max and Lando. Oscar nearly caught the battle ahead, but had to settle for fourth. Lewis had a quick second half of the race, but ceded his position to Charles near the end, and was also penalized a position for exceeding track limits when his brakes faded. Finishing third and fourth, Lando only closed the gap to Oscar by three points in the Drivers' Championship. They did, however, do enough for McLaren to claim this year's Constructors' Championship with six races to go. That's back-to-back wins for the team. You can see the race highlights here. We're back stateside for the next race at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin in two weeks.

cletus is a bit KOOKY

I heard that a player had been robbed, but not who it was until after I saw your post. Sadly, there seems to be a trend of attacks in Dublin at the moment. An English tourist was stabbed (but survived) in the same area last week. I don't know if they've caught anyone or announced the nationality of the attackers. By all accounts the NFL game was a success, so it's such a shame that it was marred by an incident like this.

Vikings are reported to have reached Newfoundland via Iceland and Greenland in 1021AD.

So, are you going to turn your kit into a Charger Daytona? I don't know much about 3D printing, but www.printables.com has downloadable files for a General Lee including the push bar.

They used some '68 Chargers in the show, so it's still authentic. The main differences between the '68 and '69 Chargers are the front grille, the rear lights and the side markers. You can sand off the side markers (as they did with the real ones). You can probably fabricate the front grille divider (they had center pieces to clip to '68 grilles on some cars in the show). The tail lights will be trickier to change.

You can see various documented model builds in the Hobbies forum. You might pick up some tips there.

Well fellow Hazzardites, my gut is still bothering me from my operation but the doc says it's looking good but I don't think so. I've been housebound almost a whole month! I get on here every now and then when I can. I'm just having to wait until I can get back to my usual! ( My usual everything!! )

Well y’all in the past 24 hours, life hasn’t been too eventful but I did go to visit a friend who was staying in town, hung out with her and her doggo. Cute as button, but so strong. That pup pulled me and I’m a full grown man. What happened was she was just going to get something at the nearby convenience store… the dog went nuts and started pulling me along even though I dug my heels in. Guess you just can’t get between a dog and their momma. Lol.

Went to the local GM plant's car show today. Over 300 cars, possibly 400 showed up. One that stuck out for me was a restored Hudson pickup truck. Never seen one before. Since it was invitation only it was pretty much hot rods and muscle cars. They might go back to open registration again next year. Few years ago they had some trouble with a few people and police showed up so that's when they made it invitation only, you have to work there or worked there or know someone that works there that will write you in.

A couple of pieces of F1 news. Firstly, Cadillac F1 recently announced F1 veterans Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez will be their drivers next season. Now they've added IndyCar race winner Colton Herta as their test driver. Secondly, Irish driver Alex Dunne gets his second chance to drive an F1 McLaren in the first practice session this weekend at Monza.

This section is dedicated to all the animals on the show. Any Flash P. Coltrane fans here?

You're a wild man!! ( Makes me glad we've got Rosco and Enos on the job!)

ain't no QUITTING in them dukes

Toto ( Africa was my fav. song by them)

INTERSTATE 20, Rockdale County, Georgia Location of the Holiday Inn where the whole cast met to read for the first episode.

Stepfanie Kramer played ANNA Louise

Swamp Molly's nephew was at YALE Divinity School.

Hazzard County is a VERY nice place to live.

That's because this is Word Association, not the A-Z Game. My "pussycat" still stands!

They advertised about the game over here and talked about it before and after but did anybody hear about Jay Cutler ( former??) QB of the Bears. He got arrested for DUI.

I watched that Vikings series on the History Channel. It was 6 seasons but I didn't start watching until it was over.

Roger, I didn't want to start a new thread for this, but I see your Steelers are playing the Vikings in Ireland this weekend. Although we've hosted college games before, this is the first full NFL game to be played here. Apparently, I missed the Terrible Towel Tour when it came to town earlier this week. They covered eight counties in four days. Max Starks was talking about it earlier on the radio. I don't know if the link will work outside of Ireland, but hopefully you can hear him here.

Got an inch and a half of rain the other night. It'll help but unfortunately next 7-10 days there's barely any rain forecasted. The drought at work has ended too for now. Got slammed with orders this week which is great, hopefully it keeps up for a while so we can build savings back up after the car repair earlier this month. The other night I was able to get a close up picture of a hummingbird hawk moth that was on one of my prairie sunflowers. There was about 4 of them fluttering around the garden. One happened to land on a 5 foot tall flower and sat there long enough for me to get several pics of it.

How do you BUY a meteorite? Is that like buying the Brooklyn bridge???

Good question. I always worry when someone is gone awhile.

Hey where's Garrett been lately??

Christian Horner has formally left Red Bull, and his severance package is reported to be €60 million (over $70 million). That makes up for the €12 million/year he'd have earned until his original contract ran out in 2030.

Glad you're enjoying your dirt bike racing, Roger. Is anyone watching NASCAR? I don't get a chance these days, but I haven't seen a review here for ages.

Getting pretty dry here. So far the well is holding up but we have no rain in the forecast for at least a week. Been super clear the last month....good for astronomy. And the drought has killed all the mosquitoes so that's good. Unfortunately I hurt my back and haven't been able to ride the trails on the dirt bike.

It seems that just about every female on the show was PRETTY!

Could it have been 'The New Yankee Workshop'? Norm Abram, who was also on 'This Old House', made some amazing items out of wood on that show.

Max Verstappen took pole for the Italian Grand Prix with Lando Norris just ahead of team mate Oscar Piastri. The Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton were next in front of their home crowd, the famous Tifosi, but Lewis had a 5-place grid penalty from the previous race weekend, so started 10th. Max's pole lap was the fastest in F1 history with an average speed of 164.466mph. Sadly for Nico Hulkenberg he was told to retire his Sauber on the way to the grid. At the start, Lando pulled alongside Max at the first corner, and although Max left the corner first, he was told by his team to give Lando the place to avoid a penalty as he'd left the track to keep the position. Charles also passed Oscar, but Oscar soon regained the place. Max also retook the lead on lap 4. Late in the race when McLaren made their pit stops they had a problem with Lando's wheel which dropped him behind Oscar. Much to Max's amusement, Oscar was told to let Lando past. Max went on to take his third win of the year with Lando and Oscar behind. The win also set a record for the fastest F1 race in history at just 1 hour 13 minutes and 24.325 seconds. George Russell was fifth, sandwiched between the Ferraris of Charles and Lewis. Finishing second with his team mate in third, Lando narrowed the gap in the drivers' to 31 points. You can see the race highlights here. The next race is the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku in two weeks.
