Here's a video of an ex-pat American who now lives in the Netherlands comparing driving there to driving in the USA.

It definitely has been a big part of my life. No other show has even been close to Dukes as my favorite show ever.....and never will.

Some of you may have noticed HazzardNet was down for a few hours today. The database wouldn't come up. Fixed it though. I bet Enos unplugged something important to plug in the coffeemaker. He didn't even leave me any donuts from the Busy Bee.

LOL! I ran out of reactions so....LOL!

Well guys, I got my tower back today, so I'm back in action and the computer is fast again!

It really does! How in the world did 47 yrs. pass that fast? I bet it wouldn't have been that fast if the DOH hadn't come along to spice life up!

Jesse Duke is an eX Moonshiner.

47 years! Feels like 10 to me.

Thanks for getting everything back. I had just assumed it was routine maintenance and I'd missed the warning.

OH! HEY! I'm sorry! I almost forgot to wish you all a happy DOHD! So....Happy DOHD everybody!

Today is The Dukes of Hazzard Day. January 26, 1979. The series premiered 47 years ago on this date with One Armed Bandits. Happy 47th Anniversary Dukes of Hazzard! 😀

+ 1 !! I feel the exact same way!

More yellow rain warnings in Ireland, but so far it hasn't been that bad where I live. Miserable weather, but no flooding.

It's been VERY cold down here in the South Eastern part of the USA...mostly ice....very dangerous!

Go Atlanta Braves!! ( They're not that far from me!)

According to the Wikipedia page for Shérif, fais-moi peur (it's in French), the French theme was sung by Israeli singer Noam (Kaniel) with lyrics by Israeli producer Haim Saban. There's no mention of any backing singers.

I like the French song. It's catchy. Does anybody here know who that guy is in the French version of the theme song? The background singer who goes "ah ooh ah ooh" in between the main singer's words? I like that "ah ooh ah ooh" part.

I found Dukes on TNN in 1996. I was 9. Now I'm 38. That's 30 years ago. Doesn't feel like that long ago for me either.

The snow is over for the most part. 18 inches. Pretty manageable here on Lake Erie. Super cold the next several days. We have a full tank of propane and a fire in the woodstove so we're good.

Hard to say. Could be Boss and Hugie running a new scam. I hear he's back in town. Hang on to your valuables.

Dipstick server. 😂 I'm glad it's back though. 😀

Dipstick Enos. 😂

I thought that too.

Nope. Apparently an automated update was applied to the server and it borked the mysql service.

Yet another new thread started because you couldn't be bothered to use the search function. We already have more than one anniversary thread, including the one you started in 2022!

My brother said "An ice storm is coming." Our Mom said "It's supposed to get bad here."

We've had a miserable few days of rain, but no freezing temperatures for over a week. I think the coldest where I live was about -5C which is 23F. If you had -5F, that's about -20.5C to the rest of the world.

Well y'all. . .I have been trying to mend my broken heart since Sunday. I may never be the same. Though I have to admit it was nice being on the winning side this year. This is the best season they've had in over a decade. Ben Johnson is the coach the Bears have needed since Lovie Smith. Caleb Williams is one of the best QBs they've had. It has been a fun season...stressful, but fun. Sad it is over, but proud of the team and their never give up attitude. Though with them out... Football is officially over for me. Daytona is 23 more days from now... Onto NASCAR and baseball...

Good to hear from you again Jim. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing it.

That looks good!

Some random advice: 1. Take lessons from a local instructor. Learning guitar is hard. Having an instructor vastly improves your chances of success. 2. When you're learning chords, just hold the chord while you're watching tv. Strum it a little bit during commercials. At first when you pull your hand away, you have to carefully reposition your fingers. After a while you'll notice that your hand will snap back to that spot. Once it does that, you'll start to be able to just grab that chord without positioning your fingers. 3. Once you can grab the chord reliably, start working on a 2nd chord. Once you can grab 2 reliably, start switching between them 4. When you're actually practicing instead of just holding chords while watching Dukes reruns, focus on having good timing. That's a critically important skill. Go as slow as you need to. Whether you use a metronome, a youtube drum track or play along with the song, timing is everything. Even if you can only strum the chord once per beat, your timing is always your priority. 4a. Learn to tap your foot to the beat. Do it to every song on the radio when you're not practicing. Make it become 2nd nature, because you'll need it to keep good time, especially when you start getting to songs with stuff that's off the beat. 5. A bunch of old Waylon and Hag songs are only 2 chords. 6. This probably should have gone near the top, but take your guitar to a competent tech or luthier for a setup. Make sure he knows that you're a beginner and he should be able to set up the guitar with lighter strings and lower action. This will make it easier to play. Like I said above... learning is hard, and frankly, it's a lot harder when you start on acoustic. It's bigger, it's farther from your body, it's harder to see what you're doing, the strings are thicker and they're farther from the frets. Hope this helps.

We're always ahead of you guys!

How about Les Seymour from 'Dukescam Scam'? We never see him, but the Dukes nearly hit him. As Waylon says: "That's Les Seymour's truck. And old Les can't even drive nails."

The Baxley Sisters in 'Coy vs. Vance' were also named after the Baxley family who worked on the show. BTW. Another widow gets mentioned in 'Gold Fever'. To get Jesse to open his mouth, Luke says, "This puts me in mind of the time when old Jess was laid up and Widow Campbell stopped by in the middle of the night...". Jesse interrupts him and I don't think we ever find out any more about Widow Campbell's visit!

It's very disco-y. LOL.

Looks like a cold week ahead. Negative 5 last night. Big time snow coming in. Even north Georgia in the bullseye. I called Uncle Jesse on the CB but he already knew, He can predict weather by how the wild critters behave. Post your weather report here. It looks like Hoss is the only one safe from this winter monster.

About all we ever get around here the last few days is ice!

You gonna get snow Hobie? Big storm coming down there.

Hit negative 8 last night. A record for Jan 30 but not all time record.

Going to be the coldest night of the winter. Will end up being well below zero before morning Sun. Maybe even break a record. Not an all time record, but a record for this day.

There were yellow wind and rain warnings in place here for most of the day, but where I live, we got away lightly. It was just a wet, miserable day with a few heavy showers. A couple of places in Co. Wexford got badly flooded when the river burst its banks.

OK my fellow Hazzardites.....I may or may not be on later but I'm still having trouble with my computer and I'm taking it in tomorrow, so I won't be here for a while....not even for DOHD!! Hopefully I'll get it repaired soon and I'll be back! * You guys make sure you celebrate DOHD and maybe even celebrate it here! Raise a glass of Buttermilk, on the rocks ..." For Hobie!" I know I'll be celebrating.....maybe not with buttermilk....but.......

Sorry Garrett. That was painful. 4 teams left. Patriots travel to Broncos. Rams travel to Seahawks. There are no teams I care about so I'm done with football. Good thing I have dirt bike races.
