Finally started to feel good physically but had a hard emotional hit today. I turned 64 (7 days after Bo turned 64) and it hit me that I will never again get a birthday call from my daughter. I'm sure when Father's Day comes around I'll get knocked down again since she was my only child.

LOL . . . well this better not be one of those times. You now got my hopes higher than the sky! Though we are racing at Talladega this weekend. He'll have to avoid "the big one" in order to win. But you said, he's going to win the rest of the year. By golly...he has to win the rest of the year. LOL.

Just a warning: Occasionally I have predictions that don't come true. Adjust your expectations accordingly.

The Duke BOYS go to the BOARS Nest for BEER.

Sorry you and your friend fell out. But glad you got the DVDs as well.

Good advice. There is nothing like having the DVDs. Then you are not at the mercy of the internet.

You can buy episodes or seasons on Amazon prime, VUDU, or Apple TV+. But it would be far cheaper to pick up the complete series on DVD and get a good upscaling Blu-ray player that will convert the SD format to HD.

Happy Birthday Coy!! ( it's hard to believe!)

Chase will win every race for the rest of the season now!

That gives me a heart attack just reading it...it would drive me crazy watching it. So nerve wracking. At least he pulled it off, but that's cutting it too close for me.

Garrett your boy Chase finally put it in victory lane today in Texas . I've never liked Denny, heck his first season he about ran thru Kyle Petty in practice.

I didn't want to start a new thread for this, but I was watching 'The Naked Gun" last night as a sort of tribute to OJ Simpson when I spotted a familiar face. When Frank Drebin goes to visit Nordberg in hospital, the nurse at reception is played by Doris Hess. Doris played Emery Potter's long-time girlfriend/wife Mabel Wooster in "People's Choice".

Yes Cousin Hobie that's his name.

Si ROSE It depends which episode you're watching. It was "Mount Paran Road" in 'Gold Fever' and "Mount Paron Road" in 'New Deputy in Town'.

doh = QUALITY entertainment

The Dukes were always looking for JUSTICE!

Nine things you may not know about Chase Elliott | NASCAR Love the number ten. He won a race without leading a lap. "He's just that good." LOL.

Now the interior. The Classic's side panels seemed best, except I liked some of the details on the Revel Cabriolet better. Solution: graft the details onto the better panels. The Classic's seat bottoms are terrific, but the Revell Cabriolet's seat backs are the closest to the real thing out of the 3 kit choices. Again, graft them together.

Thanks for the kind words! Got to splice the chopped door posts from the classic body onto the Super's convertible body. Always better to cut and graft too much, then cut it down to size. Then a bit of grinding and sanding to blend it all in.

This is the best thing I've heard all year!

Cousin Roger Duke Uncle Jesse yep!

That's why we are a team. If one person doesn't think of something, someone else does.

I forgot all about his birthday coming up. Shame on me.

sadie hogg day is an ANNUAL holiday

Looks like Coy will hit the 70 mark in 2025. Until then he still has another year of being a young man. Happy 69th birthday on Wednesday cousin Coy!

When Boss would catch Rosco trying to sleep, he was " Sneaking a Snooze or.... catching some ZZZZZ's !!

Howdy folks, I must apologize for being away for a couple of years. Had my hands full with MANY things, including a wedding, some health stuff, plus got really burned out on this project (FAR more difficult than originally thought). Time to get it off the back burner and finished. Hope y'all are doing well and blessed! Ok, let's see where we left off. Major body modifications. Had to take pieces from the two Revell bodies and graft them to the Aoshima to reflect the correct vents, trims and such. Flat windscreen framing on the hardtop was too narrow, so I widened it with an insert of plastic, above and below. I'll worry about the windscreen itself later. The hood was a nightmare, part of the upper section being scratchbuilt.

The Duke boys have a lot of X-GIRLFRIENDS

Cale Yarborough had a WHITE '69 Dodge Charger.

Get to feeling better Roger, hopefully the break in rain will help. Took the G8 to the first local cars and coffee meet yesterday. Might also be the last cars and coffee meet this year lol. A lot of idiots showed up acting like idiots, revving their motors, revving competitions, burning rubber leaving the meet, doing drugs etc... So yeah will not be surprised if the rest of the meets are canceled, this is the 4th or 5th parking lot that the organizer has had to ask permission for in the past decade because idiots got them kicked out of the other lots over the years. Was a few very interesting cars that showed up. A Citroen DS3, 60's Lincoln Continental that was lowered 3 inches with stock rims and original hubcaps, 90's Miata with a 90's Ford 5.0 cobra engine, an old Cushman scooter.

You beat me to it, Spike! I am so excited that Chase finally found himself in Victory Lane. He has been getting closer and closer this year. And here we are. I hope that this means that more is to come. Ironic enough, an online NASCAR fan was telling me the other day that I should switch to William Byron since the reason I went with Elliott was because he went to the 24 car first (Jeff Gordon's original number). Have to say it was tempting because Byron is the 24 driver, drives for Hendrick, and has been doing great last year and this year. But being the Cubs fan that I am...am loyal to the end. So Byron will be my second favorite. Sadly I missed his win as I went grocery shopping instead because I was too lazy to go yesterday. Though if I did watch it today, I'd probably have an heart attack up to the white flag! LOL. I am just so excited...must mean it's going to be a great week. LOL. I was never a Denny Hamlin fan either, because he did show aggressive driving even in his first season in NASCAR and it hasn't changed. Then him wrecking Elliott all that he did, carved it in stone. LOL. NASCAR Texas Motor Speedway Race Results, Lineup | Official Site Of NASCAR YAY CHASE ELLIOTT!!! CONGRATULATIONS. Thank you Spike.

We sure love and miss you Loretta. You will always be the Queen of country music and will always be in our hearts. Happy birthday in Hazzard Heaven ❤

Miz Tisdale's dirt bike! You knew that would make me smile!

(Season 5 Return of the Mean Green Machine) Boss and Rosco are riding Miss Tisdale's motorcycle they stole from her, and using it to chase the MGM because Rosco blew up his car while trying to fire a bazooka at the machine to make it stop. Boss Hogg:"Rosco, if you ever have to live yer life over, don't!" Rosco:"If I do, I hope I'm a duck!"

Dukes Trivia: Why was Buck Simmons and Mickey Larson hiding out in Hazzard County?

" Little Cousin"....my least fav. this and the carnival of thrills are 2 of my least fav. I can't remember when I've seen them last and I've only seen them a few times!

I hope you guys get to feeling better soon!

Dukes Trivia: What nickname did the Dukes give the space alien?

"Country music" is the Dukes ' code for switching to channel 17.

I can't think of the answer but I know this. Is it from the same scene where Daisy mentions her Waylon cassette tape in her Dixie jeep? Edit: now that I think of it, it might have been an 8-track since they just said "tape".

Hang in there Cousin/Brother....! Sit back and FEEL the warmth and strength, from the love and care coming from your cousins in the Hazzard family!

Thank you for the congratulations, but I still have a year of car payments left unless I find money laying around. I wish I could just pay it off and be done with it (the payments. Not the car.. I love my car. LOL) . Congratulations Hobie on being able to do that with your house. That is a lot of work and it had paid off. Great planning and that had to have felt good. Get feeling better, Roger. Colds are not fun!

RUSH

Then there's that...I agree 100% on this. Well I guess we can't all be right. LOL. I remember Denny's first season in Sprint. He won both races at Pocono. "The Tricky Triangle" LOL. He just better leave Chase and the rest of the Hendrick boys alone. Go pick on Kyle Busch instead...

oil (Dallas came on after Dukes. The Ewing family who made their fortune in oil was loosely based on the Hunt family who founded the Kansas City Chiefs)

Aneesh Segal taped most of them for me on VHS and then we fell out and later I got DVDs when they came out.

Roy looks excitedly over at Garrett and says, "See?" Before pressing the button on the CB and turns serious, "Oh hi," he stutters, "is this one of the Dukes?" "No sir," the voice confidently responds on the other end, "this here is Bill. I'm hoping you two got some great news for us. We can sure use it right now." Roy looks nervously at Garrett. "Bill. As in Bill Elliott?!" Roy yells into the CB and Garrett rolls his eyes at Roy and grabs the CB out of his hand. "Bill. This is Garrett," he finally responds into the CB, "I apologize for Roy. Seems the cat got his tongue," he rolls his eyes at Roy. "We don't have much news, but we do know where the marshmallow and his dummy are located right now. Where are you located at?" The line goes quiet for a long moment before Bill comes back with a location. "Luke says we can use anything at this point," Bill slowly finishes. "We are on our way," Garrett responds as he places the CB back down on the dashboard. "Leave it to you to get star struck when his career is on the line. You do realize that Elliott's NASCAR career is as good as over if the press get a hold of this?" Roy shrugs. "Well I find it backwards that you may be spending the next twenty years in jail in Atlanta and you're worried about some NASCAR driver's career," Roy spits back at him, "I mean, does Bill even think about that and what you are facing if and when the law catches up with you?" Garrett shrugs it off. "At least I'll be back in Atlanta. Maybe I'll thank him if I get caught," Garrett offers an ornery smile, "besides it's not about me. You'd rather the law get away with their crookedness? Bill worked his whole life to get where he is only for Boss and his greediness to ruin it. Atlanta prison will be worth it." Roy shakes his head. "If you say so. You better be right as I'm sure I'll be going down with you," Roy dryly responds as they pull up behind The General Lee and Jesse's white truck. Garrett is quick to hop out of the truck to join Bill and Roy slowly follows up to them. "Howdy ho," Roy grins at everyone in a greeting. Seeing everyone looking at them in anticipation, Garrett quickly gets to the point, "I had Roy follow the sheriff's car at a distance. He went down to those caves that Hogg hides out at. So I am assuming Hogg is there and he is meeting up with him there. Roy here was too chicken to follow him there to find out." Garrett gives a dark grin as he elbows Roy who only shakes his head and steps away. "Sorry we don't have much news other than that. They were wanting to arrest me when y'all didn't show up at the Boars Nest as we all thought you were and I had to make a quick get a way." "Who's the chicken now?" Roy throws back at him. "No. It's smart not to follow them to the caves. You'd be in jail for sure right now," Jesse firmly states, not wanting to deal with Garrett's attitude. "Where that leave us now, Luke?"

Remember the song everybody sang, when she was there? " Ya'll Come! Ya'll Come!...."

Jesse: Okay. . .I'll let you sometime when Boss ain't there. . .don't think he needs to hear. . .besides Lulu will take care of him (and you know what i thought? "Forget your high society I'm soakin it in Kerosene")

I liked Emery. He kinda reminded me of Barney Fife. I wish they would have had him on more often. I'm gone.
