I'm married to one!! LOL!

That's just like when I try to find some hard to find books, out of print, etc. on the web. Some of them I can find but they're asking hundreds of dollars for it and I'm like THAT much for a book??? DREAM ON!

To save you clicking the image link, the Facebook page says: Polish up those rides and come on down! Join us September 5th from 12–3 PM at the Cardinal Waterfront, 105 Legion Way for our Show & Shine! That's Cardinal, Ontario.

Of course, now that Brian May has his PhD in astrophysics, he can conclusively prove that fat bottomed girls make the rocking world go 'round!

Howdy y’all, not sure if anyone’s gonna be down this way during Labour Day weekend. But we’re putting on a car show and we would love to have any of y’all there! Was kinda hoping I could find someone with a General Lee on here locally cause this event has zero cover charge for vehicles to attend! It’s just a show n shine, meet up with likeminded folks and enjoy showing off your car or just enjoy the cars that are there. I hope the link works, the file was too big to post.. https://imgur.com/a/G8ul3qo This here is a link to the event poster with information. Thanks again y’all, Yee Haw! Tom

I've just read that Derran "Derry" Brownson, co-founder of EMF, has died from a brain tumor. He was the same age as me, and this song takes me back to my college days. I never know how well known British bands are in the US, but this one apparently made it to #1 in the US charts in 1991. EMF - Unbelievable

Season 1 Repo Men Cooter Davenport & Luke Duke are in the Rolls Royce. Cooter:"Hey Luke?" Luke:"Yeah?" Cooter:"What do you think ol' Burt Reynolds would do at a time like this?" Luke:"I ain't sure. But I know he'd be doin' it with somebody a lot prettier than you." 😂 Cooter:"Hey Luke?" Luke:"Yeah?" Cooter:"If you can't make this thing go any faster than this, do you mind if I just jump out and run ahead?" 😂 Luke:"Funny." 😂

Hard to believe Hughie is 75! WOW! I always wondered....we had Hughie, Dewey.....and I was waiting for Lewey to show up! ( you know, from the cartoon ducks)....that HAD to be where the writers got the names from. That's too big of a coincidence not to be!

Happy 75th birthday Hughie Hogg!

Ha! Ha! No! Brian May, the top pic in the middle of the picture. He was Queen's lead guitarist.

Are you talking about Cletus Hogg?

today is jeff ALTMAN'S birthday

Through my life, I have wanted a Ferrari, a mansion, ( To be rich) , to be a world famous rock singer , etc. etc. but now, just a few days short of being 61 ( Aug. 31) , I simply want to be at peace , with a simple life and be debt free and not have to work. The crazy thing is I have all this and I'm not sure if I'll ever buy anything crazy ( mansion, Ferrari, Lamborghini etc.) but now that I'm in a position to do these things.....I have no desire! Go figure! When you don't have it, you want it and when you do have it, you don't really have a desire! weird huh? Here's something else I've noticed. .......When I was in college ( you know the time of your life, when it's, " Money? What's money? " ) I was buying Heineken Beer on Thursday nights, that was the Friday night for us! We would schedule, as much as possible the easiest and fewest classes for Friday and then when that last class is done, it's back home and Weekend time! Anyway, Thursday, I'd go to 3rd and Main Market and buy a 6 pk. of Heineken and .....well you know the rest ! I always said, drink Heineken and you'll feel fine again! now that I'm able to buy that expensive beer on the reg. like I did then, I buy Milwaukees Best Ice or Natural Ice. Weird huh?

I think he has a PHD in English.....( ? ) It wouldn't surprise me to find out he was in Mensa.

As great as all the Dukes are, everyone of them on the entire show, including us, started out, as a ZYGOTE!

.....and had a YELLOW road runner

It warms my heart to see all these tributes. Dukes fans are a big family with a common bond and it's nice to see us come together like this.

Thanks Hoss, yes I did see coverage of it. CNN did a live special. Here it was cloudy but occasionally a window would open up. The Sun was only 5 percent blocked here in NW Pennsylvania so it wasn't anything spectacular....but still cool anyways. Brian May was very active with Astronomy magazine but hasn't done much in it lately.

Daisy was Xtra fine!!

Roger, I don't know if you saw, but we had a solar eclipse over parts of Europe earlier this evening. It was best viewed from Spain, but we were meant to have pretty good views here. Sadly, although it got quite dark around 7pm, I had cloud cover where I live. I liked the trailer for a later news show on TV last night. They were going to be interviewing Queen guitarist Brian May, who also has a PhD in astrophysics, about the eclipse, and said he'd be telling you why for this time only you shouldn't "Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see". I'm sure it was only going to be a warning about looking at the sun, but I liked the lyrics tie-in. In case you don't recognize the words, it's the third line of this:

I met Ben Jones ( and the other DOH Stars) at the “Hazard County Fair “ in Macon Ga when I was 16 years old . The Macon Telegraph had and article about the event and many people had negative comments . I thought the event was great and enjoyed my time meeting several of the cast members. I wrote a review about the Event and how much I enjoyed it and apparently it found its way to Ben . He actually called me ( after he came to my small hometown of Henderson Ga and I was out of town) . He stopped at the only store in our Un-Incorporated town and spoke with several of the farmers ( one of whom gave him my phone # ) and community members who often stopped in the store to talk about the day and buy a soda or snack. He left me several items including an autographed photo that I still have 44 years later . He impressed me so much as a teenager because he took time out of his busy life to find a 16 YO country girl in a small unknown town to just say thank you ! RIP Ben “Cooter”! Susan Thames Newton

Thank you for this lovely obituary. I send my sincere condolences to Alma and all the family. I watch The Dukes of Hazzard on a regular basis (on DVD) and will always be a big fan of the show. Thank you Ben for all what you did on the show and afterwards keeping the show alive. Rest in peace Ben Jones. 🙏🏻 (from England)
