Welcome, Skipper! Nice to have you aboard. Love the avatar. I used to watch Gilligan's Island a lot and, next to the Professor, the Skipper was my favorite character.

Welcome to HNet, Skipper. I approved your posts last night but forgot to say "hi".

I don't know about motorcycles, but IMCDb says it's a 1969 Moto Guzzi V 7 Ambassador.

I am Robert John Broadhurst II. Dukes fan since TNN 1996. I was 9 years old. Now I am 33. I will be a fan forever. One can not ever get bored with The Dukes of Hazzard. My other shows are Gilligan's Island and The Andy Griffith Show. Fan of those since age 3 1990. One can not ever get bored of the island or Mayberry either. Looking forward to chatting with y'all. Have been trying to join since 2012 to no avail. I have finally been successful. Have a good evening/morning wherever y'all may be in the world. Catch y'all on the flip side.

Hi Meadowmufn. Thanks. Great to be in the HN fam.

Cool references

You're correct, it is a Bonanza reference. Hoss seemed like a good screen name for HNet as a couple of incidental characters get referred to by that name (see below). I can't remember why I couldn't just choose plain "Hoss" (with no "C") - maybe it was too short - but for whatever reason, I added the "C" as a nod the best known Hoss on TV .

My pleasure. You have been a fan of this website for so long it's about time you joined. I was surprised at how well you know all the active and former members here on HN but since you have been reading the posts here for 10 years I guess I shouldn't have been surprised. We're so excited to have yoi!

The motorcycle in Miz Tisdale on the Lam is a Moto Guzzi, not 100% sure which model though. That's my 3rd favorite motorcycle brand behind Indian and Harley Davidson.

Likewise Roger Duke! Thanks so much for your help in joining here.

I'm so happy you finally joined Skipper. I might even change my name to Gilligan Duke just so you can call me Little Buddy.....just kidding. Just to let you HazzardNet folks know, I joined Facebook just to do Dukes stuff and requested some Dukes fans for friends and Robert was the first to accept. And he's a bit of a legend in the Dukes Facebook community so I wouldn't be too surprised if some of his friends follow him to the HazzardNet. So let me tip a glass of Enos's finest buttermilk to my first FB friend and now my friend on HN....Skipper Duke! It's good to have you here cousin.

Miz Tisdale on the Lam.....season 4 A mysterious man with the fake name of John Smith has been coming to the post office for a week getting a LOT of mail. He is working for Boss who is running a mail scam to sell land at Hazzard Highlands, which doesn't even exist. After falling for the scam a lady named Sue Ann Blake shows up looking for her land. She bumps into Bo and Luke but they tell her they've never heard of HH. When Boss finds out a postal inspector is on the way to investigate mail fraud he sends Rosco to the post office to make it looks like Emma Tisdale is running the scam. While Rosco's there Sue Ann shows up. It turns out she's not a victim after all. She's the inspector. Rosco tells her Emma is the scammer. The boys overhear it and run to Cooter's to warn her and take her to the farm for protection. Billy Joe Fong jumped on the loaner motorcycle, with sidecar that Cooter gave her and disguised himself as Emma to trick the law. Of course Emma is pretty happy hanging out with Jesse at the farm. Sue Ann tells Boss and Rosco that she thinks Emma has accomplices so Rosco sets the Dukes up to be framed as well. When Boss, Sue Ann, Cletus and Rosco go to the farm everybody scatters, Jesse hopping in Emma's sidecar. The romantic couple (in Emma's mind) end up hiding in the back of Billy Joe's CB shop where Emma starts running her fingers through his hair. After Bo and Luke get caught and tied up by "John Smith" and his accomplice those two bad guys go to the post office in masks and drop Bo's wallet to frame him. The boys get loose and after a big chase with several vehicles everything gets sorted out and it's another happy ending. Jesse even took Emma catfishing. -- Cletus got wet 5 times in this episode....that has to be a record. -- "Cletus, you were born stupid and you've been losing ground ever since." Boss -- This is the episode with that classic scene with Boss and Rosco and that out of control popcorn machine. It was so funny to see Rosco salting popcorn in mid air.

I finally joined Facebook and joined a bunch of Dukes groups so I'm talking about HN. I'm only using FB for Dukes stuff. It's been nice to reconnect with folks I met in Ray Kohn's Northeast Ohio Dukes stunt shows.

Pin the Tail on the Dukes....season 4 Jesse's old friend Hector Farley gets out of prison after 10 years and immediately starts seeking revenge on Boss. Boss is worried so he tries to get Hector thrown in jail but the Dukes have other plans. Boss embezzled $10,000 worth of taxpayers dollars to buy radar guns but only bought 2 hair dryers disguised as them. One of them got ruined when the General Lee splashed on it so Boss planned to arrest the Duke boys for destroying county property. In the meantime the Dukes have their hands full trying to stop Hector from hurting Boss and going back to prison. Boss calls Hector and tells him to meet in front of the courthouse because he wants to make things right and give him the $25,000 dollars he owes him but Bo and Luke grab him before he can fall into that trap. Daisy and Jesse snatch Cletus's fake radar gun and toss it to the boys and Hector in the General. The boys told Boss they would report his embezzlement unless he drops the charges and gives Hector his money but Boss tricks them and grabs the hair dryer and takes off for Hazzard Swamp to destroy the evidence but the Duke boys get there when Rosco throws it. In the most spectacular catch in series history Luke snatches the dryer in mid air in the passenger seat while Bo is flying the General over the swamp. Boss is forced to accept the deal and a ridge runner handshake seals it. -- "Back in 1944 in Hazzard High 'ole Rosco threw two touchdowns....at the wrong goal." -Waylon -- a rare episode where we see a television in the Dukes house -- Boss had such a big pile of donuts on his desk you couldn't even see him behind it. -- Mr Rhuebottom makes his first appearance even though his store has been there since season number one when filming in California began.....and even though Boss foreclosed on it a few episodes ago in "Trouble at Cooter's"
