Hi ya'll my computer stopped working.

Just saw the movie "The Great Wall" today. If you like action fantasy adventures this is a must see movie. I won't give anything else away but I will say they connect dynamite to arrows, light them and let them fly. Sound familiar? I bet folks in the theater were wondering why I laughed when I saw it.

Okay so I wanted to make a forum about this and I am just curious, if anyone reading this was given the opportunity to script an episode of the Dukes of Hazzard for Warner Bros, what would be the plot that they would come up with. I want to see some of the creative ideas that this amazing community can come up with!!!

i would loved to see john schneider and marie osmond in an tv movie someday

Does anybody know someone in the big blizzard? Our daughter and her family live in Winchester Virginia so they're in the worst part of it. So far they still have electricity so if that holds out they'll be fine. They don't have a lot of snow plows down there so it will be a long time before they clear this out. They could get four feet of snow.

It's to late to tell you when this is because it was yesterday... Anyway, yesterday on Sunday we went to Silverstone as it was close to where we were on vacation. I've never seen a race on a real circuit before so I was quite exited. I've been to the Hockenheimring and the Nurburgring before but not on a raceday. As you probably noticed already, it was raceday of truck racing. Went in there, walk to a nice spectator area and sat down. They had Country music through the speakers in which most had some form of truck reference in them. Best part was, when I had only sat down for 1 second the dukes theme started playing! Also heard smokey and the bandit and Convoy through …

One of my other hobbies Is model railways, but since a few months I'm adding to that model cars. These cars are the same scale as my trains and will drive on the same 'table' landscape as my trains. For this I need cars to transform to drivable, obviously... These are made using regular 1/87 H0 cars. My landscape is based on the Netherlands from in between 1995 and now, so most cars will be European. But I really want a 1969 or 1968 Dodge Charger for it. I have a feeling my 'European' Google has only been looking in Europe as all its results were in Europe. But none were even in the scale 1/87 or a model car. The only thing I saw was a 1/87 3d printed solid model withou…

Think this pretty much spells the end of the Confederate flag on the Dukes of Hazzard General Lee merchandise in stores. https://www.yahoo.com/news/wal-mart-says-removed-confederate-flag-merchandise-stores-001141347--finance.html

Some people might have noticed that I don't always post in the birthday topics of Dukes of Hazzard actors, I want to explain here why. I don't know how to explain this the right way but I'll do my best. I'm not a person for chit chat, I think words really need to mean something before you should say them. For me personally posting "happy birthday Denver/James" every year doesn't cut it. To me it's more of an "I see it so I have to post in it" thread. Yes, you should wish them a happy birthday and I think birthday topics are a good way for some people but I don't see it for myself as a good way. I want you people to know that I do wish every (Dukes of Hazzard cast) membe…

Here's my score prediction: Seattle Seahawks-17 New England Patriots-7 Yes, I'm going out on a limb and calling for a low score. When the Seattle defense finally starting to get their act together two months ago I said they'd win it all again.

WOW... umm.. all I have to say is I can't believe I found this place again. Honestly I was looking something up about the Dukes cause I got bored..and found the link. But I'm sure you all remember me. But.. I still love the Dukes of Hazzard. I still, after a few years watch with my dad. I now live with my dad, still in Texas of course. I have changed a lot..and will be 19.. well this month! I have missed ya'll and I know I've made a lot of come back threads. But I think I really wanna start coming back again, because this place always was so welcoming. I've matured a lot. No more crazy random LOL's and crazy things ya'll used to get from me or anything like that. I've act…

As you probably know I am a huge fan of Formula One, so over time I watch some videos of it on yotube and occasionally like some a lot. I thought i'd share some with you people. I'm not much of a writer so I won't ever start a blog about this but I thought some people might enjoy this. Rubens Barrichello interrupting Dutch F1 presenter Olav Mol. Rubens said 'Hoe gaat het?' Which he said perfectly, it means 'How's it going?'. I wonder if he knows what internet is nowadays. This is the intro our tv channel used until 2012. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VhZ7lIOEGk Very good compilation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fz4iYCqS_R0&list=FLlPTpWdldlv7xb1UxGonyU…

I've been absolutely glued to my TV set. Being from Canada, I don't get to talk to too many folks about baseball, as its more of an "American sport". Of course, we do have the Toronto Blue Jays (and I'm from Toronto!) but seeing the way our season went was just awful. But that's besides the point. Anyone been watching the playoffs? This year they have been amazing! I think that the Wildcard games, division series and championship series have all been the most exciting ones in recent memory. If anyone wants to talk baseball, hit me up in this thread! I'm obsessed.

Every time I see one of those commercials from those on-line dating services I think of Rosco's Mama's line from "Mrs Rosco P. Coltrane". I may not have it exactly right but it went something like "You got a girl out of a computer?" LOL If I ran one of those companies I'd pay Warner Brothers to use that clip in a commercial. The Dukes were way ahead of their time. Boss ran a solar powered still. Jesse invented ethanol. Rosco got a girl from a computer. I feel sorry for the city folks who think hicks aren't that smart.

Just found on another Forum this test, really realistic and interesting, and I'd like to share it with you.. http://www.personalitylab.org/tests/bfi_self.htm My results (from 0 to 100): Extraversion: 11 (from 0 to 100)... I know I'm totally an introverted person. :-)) (high grade of introversion) High scorers tend to be sociable and outgoing. They prefer to be around people most of the time. High Extraversion is associated with being seen as more popular and more socially competent, having more friends and dating partners, being accident-prone, taking more study breaks, engaging in thrill-seeking and delinquent behavior, better performance in sales and management jobs, hi…

I just watched two hours of CMAs Country Music Festival last night and I'm more convinced than ever that country music is dead. There were a few exceptions but basically those two hours were a rock/pop festival. Country and Western was what country used to be called but when the western part faded out, the western name was dropped. Marty Robbins was probably the last western singer. I think country should consider changing its name again since only about 20% of it is really "country" and that number drops every year. Thank goodness there's still a few country singers out there. I did enjoy their performances last night. But it appears their time in the spotlight is lim…

Sometimes I stumble on quotes of famous writers that really made me wonder, saying, "WOW it's SO true", and made me ponder on various side of life, learning a lot of myself and of people around me. I recently found this one: "People who are unable to lie, think that everybody is unable to lie", Kafka. "In your life you'll meet a lot of masks and few persons", Luigi Pirandello (GREAT italian writer). Somewhere I read that "any of us looks for something of himself into books". Actually I'm a bit too much into understanding how people relate to each other, what's honesty, what's idealism, what's duplicity, what's opportunism, and so on (how much of it there is in any of us),…

I really do hate computers. I only started using them because I was told I could find Dukes related stuff on the internet. After using the HazzardNet for a few years I started branching off to other things but now I'm going in the other direction and am down to three things. Now all I use this contraption for is HazzardNet, e-mail and fantasy sports. I'm slowly phasing my way out of fantasy sports for various reasons and it looks like I'll end up being where I was when I first started, just HazzardNet. I seem to be a lot happier when I'm on this thing less. One of the reasons is all the problems I have with it. They're constant. Thankfully my son-in-law is a computer engi…

I deal a lot with CL and buy and sell parts on there quite a bit. A guy just had a Dixie horn for sale at a decent price. ......yeah, I bought it. Since I don't have a Charger, I put it in my '79 Ford truck. Like the title says, I just couldn't resist.

Let me start by saying I have three girls and they're all gorgeous, so as a dad, I have aneurisms on a regular basis. Anyway, my oldest is 15 and she went out on her first official date last night. I'm ex-military with some time in the sand box and PTSD to prove it. SO, ...I'm out in the shop working on my Chevelle when Cora, (my oldest) comes out to inform me that she's going on a date and the guy will be here any minute. I've had visions of this moment for years. The ole' cleaning a gun when he shows up, whispering in his ear, they'll never find his body, etc. Cora asks me nicely, "When you meet him can you not be, ...well, ....you." Ummm. Ok. So he shows up and I in…

I've been wanting to make one of these for a while, so I finally did it. Of course, I had to pick DOH colors. Also, check out the emergency whistle on the buckle. The Hazzard County Sheriff's Department could have used one of these. LOL!

Please check out this link and remember Conyers, GA and it's people. This area was in and near Dukes of Hazzard filming locations. We also lost 5 people (4 children) in Kentucky. http://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2013/01/09/Four-children-killed-in-Georgia-house-fire/UPI-35241357735228/?spt=hs∨=tn Now, after you give your kids an extra tight hug, please check your batteries in your smoke detector and IF you didn't change them when you set your clock in the fall, change them now. Our local volunteer fire department is lucky not to have many structure fires, but when we get them in Nov, Dec and Jan they are hot ones and the old structures in our county are usually too far gone …

So me and my brother share a room and it's in the front of our house. Our house is also an apartment. Well our new upstairs neighbor was plunging the bath tub with a plunger and I'm pretty sure that's what made our ceiling leak. It hasn't done it is years. We've had to move so much and put so plastic down. It's horrible. I hate our house. I want to move so badly. I'm like an emotional wreck. Nothings been damaged yet, it's just who I am. Hope that it ends soon. But now I'm going to feel awful in school, all thanks to my neighbors. So has any of ya guys had a house as bad as this?

So I just got home from being at our local ammusment park. We went there to get mine and my mom's ID's for work. This is my first job which I'm excited for. I'm a Gopher which means I will take people's places when they need to use the bathroom or go to their breaks. I'm going to be working all fall and I'm at our kids area. This makes me wonder what everyone's first jobs were.

Today was a crazy day for me. I had a stair give and i fell through. Tore my big toe nail almost all the way off, hurt my leg and bruise my other knee. It looked like the board was rotted because it was soft and pulled away from the other board it was nailed to. I'm ok, have my leg propped up with ice. Has anyone ever had an experience like that?
