  1. A Facebook post. A dramatic illustration showing the heart-stopping moments as the Titanic split in two in the silent night ocean. โ›ด๏ธ๐Ÿ’” Fun Fact: > Although often depicted as breaking apart in films, the truth that the Titanic broke into two pieces was only scientifically proven in 1985 after its wreckage was found on the seabed. (Photo of the ship breaking. Bow underwater separating from the stern.) My comment: It did break up. But it's always depicted as sinking whole in movies pre 1997 James Cameron. Because by '97 we knew for a fact that she broke up, and Cameron portrayed it that way. Movies pre '97 like A Night to Remember (1958) based on the Walter Lord book of the same name were filmed before the wreck was discovered. Nobody knew it broke up in spite of eyewitness who saw it break and said that it did. They were not believed. When the wreck was discovered by Dr. Robert Ballard on 9/1/85, history would change forever what we thought we knew about the Titanic.
  2. Dukes Trivia: The Styx River in Hazzard County in the show was actually The Santa Clarita River in Santa Clarita California. True or False?
  3. That's good no flooding. ๐Ÿ˜€
  4. I wish I could have one of the Skipper hats that Alan Hale (Skipper) signed when he autographed them and sold or gave them away at his Alan Hale's Lobster Barrel restaurant. He autographed the brims with "Alan Hale Skipper."
  5. Uh oh about the flooding. That's not good. ๐Ÿ˜จ
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Dipstick server. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm glad it's back though. ๐Ÿ˜€
  9. Dipstick Enos. ๐Ÿ˜‚
  10. I thought that too.
  11. Mind-blowing reading experience alert! ๐Ÿคฏ When I read Gordon Korman's Titanic Book series, I don't just imagine the characters - I see and hear the James Cameron movie cast! ๐Ÿ˜ Bernard Hill as Captain Smith, Jonny Phillips as Lightoller, Kathy Bates as Molly Brown... it's like the movie's playing in my head! ๐ŸŽฌ This happens with other books too! Stephen King's Christine = John Carpenter's cast (Keith Gordon as Arnie, John Stockwell as Dennis...), and James McLendon's Eddie Macon's Run = Jeff Kanew's crew (John Schneider as Eddie, Kirk Douglas as Marzack...). I even hear the movie soundtracks! ๐Ÿ˜‚ When Christine kills Moochie, I hear "Little Bitty Pretty One" ๐Ÿค˜. Has anyone else got a book-to-movie brain like mine? ๐Ÿ˜„ #readingcommunity #booklovers #moviemagic
  12. 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! ๐Ÿ˜€
  13. Christine(1983)Book/Movie fans... What Arnie Cunningham knew that nobody else knew was the car was haphazardly restoring itself. That explains the hopscotch of old and new parts. The half grille etc.
  14. My brother said "An ice storm is coming." Our Mom said "It's supposed to get bad here."
