    I saw a video of John on Youtube last night that broke my heart of his struggles with widowhood. My thoughts and prayers continue to be with him as he goes through this.

    I like the redesign of the banner at the top of the site. Who created the new banner layout?

    Me too....love it! Just can't figure out if Hoss did it or our Supreme Superior Commanding Officer.

    Congratulations to Meadowmufn on this fantastic accomplishment! What a labor of love it has been. So many ups and downs. Since MM is such a big Rosco fan I'm sure having James Best in the chat room was a huge up....and talking about his death was just the opposite. 
    Friday will mark my 17th year here. I hadn't used a computer in my life and when my daughter said you can find anything on the internet, the first thing I asked was "Even Dukes of Hazzard stuff?" She showed me right away and when HazzardNet came up I was hooked.....still am. Best website on the internet! And of course the greatest part of it is all the friends I made. 
    Long live Hazzard County!

    That's true. Everything is racist. My niece (who is a person of color) works for a major university and was organizing a work related picnic and her boss told her the word picnic is racist and against university policy to use. I couldn't believe it but Googled it and found out she wasn't kidding. Speaking of violating policy, I'd better be careful. I think discussing the flag on the General is permitted but nothing else. I don't blame MM for that. These things can get ugly fast.

    If that's the way it is around HERE..... you can color me gone!  I don't play to stupid BS games. The white race is in the cross hairs and set for extinction via genocide but no one cares! If it were blacks, Jews etc. oh no! but us....nah! It doesn't matter! Even white people! And that's the problem! How brainwashed and flat out stupid can people be.....? ....or should I say cowardly?  It shows you how stupid people are!  Here's something to blow away the B.S.!
     
    The word "picnic" does not have racist origins1234. The word "picnic" was originally a 17th Century French word, picque-nique, which meant a social gathering where each attendee brings a share of the food2. A popular but incorrect theory suggests that the word "picnic" has its roots in racism, referring to gatherings of people who watched public lynchings134. However, this theory is not supported by the word's etymology

    I'd never even heard that anyone thought picnic was a racist word. It appears that Fort Lauderdale City Commissioner Robert McKinzie made the claim in 2019 before it was subsequently debunked by professors of language and African-American history. Yet another case of someone jumping to conclusions without all the facts. At least Cadbury's won't have have to change the name of their chocolate bar on the this side of the Atlantic!

    Back at the Boar's Nest, Garrett remains crouched down behind a large leafy bush with a mouth full of parking lot dust as the law finally drives away. After they are out of sight, Garrett stands up, spitting out the dry dust and glancing around a long moment before he steps out from under the bush. As he does so, he sees Roy's truck back out and quickly pulls up alongside of him. Garrett sighs a sigh of relief before throwing open the door and climbing in. Closing the door, he turns to Roy and says, "I thought I told you to leave."
    Roy shrugs. "You can even ask my ma, I've never been good at listening," he grins crazily, "I bet you're glad of that now."
    "If you say so," Garrett dryly responds, refusing to show any emotion.
    "Anyway, I stayed in my truck and waited to see when y'all would come out to see if you needed any help. But lo and behold, you took the coward's way out and hid," Roy states as they leave the parking lot, "which just left me to wait until you decided to brave enough to reappear."
    "I ain't no coward," Garrett hisses, "it was either go to jail, fight the law and add more charges onto their fake charges of me, or to get out of there. I chose to get out."
    "I know, I know. I just wanted to get a rise out of you," Roy smiles smugly and looks over at Garrett, "and it worked."
    "Just drive," Garrett states as he sinks down into his seat.
    "Where to?" Roy asks.
    "I don't -" Garrett starts to say before he spots the sheriff's car up ahead turning off onto another dirt road, "follow the sheriff at a distance. Don't let him spot you. He spots us, we are both going to jail."
    "Woo hoo a car chase!" Roy laughs crazily, "A slow car chase, but hey...it's still a car chase!"
    Garrett eyes him before he lights up another cigarette. "I'm glad you're excited about it," he dryly states, "I'm just hoping they'll lead us to something or somewhere seeing as how we got pulled into this mess and then left out to dry."
    Roy nods. "Maybe Bo and Luke kidnapped Bill and Ernie!" he says with excitement in his voice as he slowly turns where the sheriff had turned, "That's why they weren't at the Boar's Nest as we had been expecting! Ooooo they gonna be in trouble!"
    "So will we if we get caught," Garrett states blowing out smoke, "don't let him see us."
    "Ten four grumpo," Roy responds, "but what you think Bo and Luke are doing to Bill and Ernie? Poor Bill and Ernie."
    Garrett just rolls his eyes and stares out the window.

    So yesterday got this ridiculous note on our door, everyone else in the complex did too, I figured we'd get something this week because the complex next door had a fire over the weekend. But imo this goes to far. There's a few people that feed the stray cats and some that put bird feeders up. So in the note it said unless those people stop they will be charged a pet fee. It doesn't end there either. Grille's are now basically banned, they didn't go so far as to say that but you have to have the grill 10 feet from any structure now instead of on your patio. In the building I live in that basically means grilling in the middle of the parking lot. Here's the best one... All curtains have to be white, any other color and you will get a lease violation fine. That's funny because I went through the last lease we signed in February and there's not a  thing about only having white curtains. This note was the last straw for our next door neighbor, she told us last night that she's breaking her lease and moving out as soon as she finds another place to live as I'm sure several others are also contemplating it. I'm hoping my wife heals up fast and gets back to work so we can get the heck out of here too as this is the last straw for me too.

    It may be a southern thing, though Richard Petty promo'd them on his car forever. They used them a lot in the NASCAR crew. They are used for headaches, back, muscle aches etc.

    Yeah Larson held off Reddick thanks to NASCAR's inability to fix the 1.5 mile package. Once the 2nd car catches the lead car and is stuck in its wake there's no passing the lead car. Imo they should just make all tracks minus Daytona, Talladega and Atlanta 750+ horsepower and get rid of some of the down force. 
    Garret you didn't miss much. It wasn't that exciting except on the restarts. 
  24. Thanks

    That's pretty much why they introduced the DRS (Drag Reduction System) in F1. The aerodynamics of the modern cars leaves a hole in the air making it difficult to follow closely. Now, at certain places on each circuit (between 1 and 3 locations depending on the track), if a driver can get within a second of the car in front of them at the detection spot they can open a flap on the rear wing, which gives them a few km/h extra. However, on some tracks a DRS train forms behind a slightly slower car, and as everyone is within a second of the car in front of them, they all get DRS!

    Maybe it's part of a higher plan. HA. I saw earlier where Jr said he thought Logano was behind the glove. I didn't read the whole article, so I can't really say much about it. I'm just not a big fan of Logano. LOL
