I've taken my DoH shirts out of rotation for a while cause I just don't want to deal with the questions or accusations while I'm out running errands at stores even though neither shirt has a confederate flag. There's an african american guy that works at one of the local stores I go to that grew up on the dukes too, we had a chat about the show one time when he seen me wearing one of my shirts. He still wants a 68-70 Charger in orange .

I'm just really down that they are casting a big shadow over the Dukes by making them look racist or anyone who likes the show. I'm not racist and hate the thought of someone thinking I am just because of a show. But I do see where people are coming from by associating the flag with it...even if that's not what it was intended to mean. If all that makes sense...

I just got my Dukes of Hazzard Unofficial Companion book in the mail. Wow! How have I lived without this thing for so long?! It was written in 1998 by David Hofstede and is 350 pages long. I'm not an internet shopper but my wife is so she ordered it with a 20 dollar Amazon gift card I got for my birthday last month. The book is paperback and looks brand new and only cost 17 dollars. Fantastic! If you don't have this...get it!

Mrs Rosco P Coltrane....season 3 After 3 weeks of secretly dating, Rosco's girlfriend Sue Ann Bliss shows up in his office wanting to get married even though Rosco wants to wait 6 months. She gets her way and the wedding planning begins. Earlier 2 bad guys accidently crashed into the General and flipped it upside down. They are seen later talking to Sue Ann so clearly something is fishy. When Boss realizes the wedding will happen the same day a $100,000 miner's payroll will be in Hazzard, he calls two guys to steal it, which is also what Sue Ann and her accomplices were planning since the money will be vulnerable when everyone will be at the wedding. Luke gets suspicious after finding a connection between Sue Ann and her accomplices and those suspicions get confirmed after seeing them talking and discovering a wanted poster. During the wedding Boss's bad guys get a flat tire so Sue Ann's guys end up with the money and later stuff Rosco in his trunk on the way to his honeymoon. Bo and Luke rescue him and give him the bad news and catch Sue Ann and the other 2. -- This is the only appearance of Rosco's Mama and she also says "knee knee" LOL and treats her 48 year old son like a kid. She threatened to jump out a high window if he got married. 48 just isn't old enough. -- Rosco was spelled Roscoe on his office door but the e was gone minutes later -- It was a bit creepy when Boss met Sue Ann and starting touching and flirting...good thing Lulu stopped it. -- great line by Mama " You mean you got a girl out of a machine?"

Dew (Mountain Dew has never been a big brand over, but it is available at some stores, and I have a 500ml bottle in my fridge at the moment)

I still wear my Dukes stuff in public and have never had any problems or comments. If I ever do I've already thought of what I'll say. I love to confuse people with logic.....great to hear from you Garrett. I see we're tied for first in your fantasy baseball league....along with everybody else...we're also tied for last.

They continue to destroy our heritage.....it's all part of the plan!

LOL...thank you for the laugh!

If you check your new 'The Dukes of Hazzard: The Unofficial Companion', you'll see that John was away filming the made-for-tv movie 'Dream House'. I seem to remember watching it a few years ago.

On with the Race Review...Blu Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500 at Martinsville... Joey Logano won the first stage. Jimmie Johnson came on strong for the 2nd stage win and looked to have the car to beat for the race but then came along Martin Truex jr who took the lead on lap 370 and never looked back. The rest of his teammates didn't fair so well all finishing outside the top 10 and off the lead lap. Penske racing teammates finished 2,3, and 4th with Chase Elliot finishing 5th. Matt Dibenedetto had a good night finishing 7th in the Wood Bros. #21. Jimmie Johnson finished 10th Dale Earnhardt Jr will be back behind the wheel this weekend at the Xfinity race Saturday June 14th.

This is actually one of the episodes my wife likes watching. Usually I hear a big sigh when I put a Dukes episode in but not this one, she gets a kick out of this one. IIRC from an interview John Schneider was either sick or injured and that's why he wasn't in this episode.

I get into the fantasy so much I often forget that they were filmed in southern California but sometimes the landscape is so barren that even being into the fantasy doesn't help much. The cool thing about the Georgia episodes is that everything looks so much like where I live even though it's pretty far from Hazzard Pond to Lake Erie.
