The General Lee is still the most recognizable car in history....but a half General-half Hazzard Sheriff's car is really strange. Which half was the General? Was it split down the middle, or front/back....or was it all orange with the Sheriff's decals and lights, or none of the above? You are right.....the short time I was on FB I saw everything imaginable as a tribute to the greatest most famous car in history. I've been watching You Tube videos of Superbikes lately. My Ninja wouldn't be able to keep up with them but it looks like them. Now, where did I put that orange paint? Edit...maybe Hoss could see my Ninja that Spike put up a few days ago and turn it into a GLee.

Everybody said the ship was unsinkable so whenever someone thinks they can't fail they often end up failing because of overconfidence.

I've idea whether other countries use that style, but White Star Line hats are quite similar to UK Navy hats, and do not have ropes and anchors.

It is used here, but I can't imagine it would have been used for the master of a White Star Line vessel over a hundred years ago. It would have been a very respected position. Skipper is also used here for the captain of a football (soccer) team.

Despite sinking on its maiden voyage, Belfast is still proud of building the Titanic. There's a visitor attraction dedicated to it, although I didn't have enough time to check it out when I was in Belfast a few years ago. Whether he was bad or good, the person in charge of the Titanic was English, so he would never have been known as Skipper Smith. He was Captain Edward Smith. BTW. Skipper, why are you posting everything about the Titanic twice? Your posts don't really relate to either movie (they're just general discussion about the Titanic), and you certainly don't need to double post.

Last night I seen on fb someone shared a Crown Vic painted half General Lee and half Hazzard County Sheriff . It's amazing how many different cars all over the world are painted like the General Lee, from Fiat 500's to Ford Escort's to Lada's, heck even Ural motorcycles etc.. I don't think there is any other TV series or even movie car that gets so much love and reproduced on so many vehicular things.

Huge (This has been going since 2007. 15 years and still going strong.)

You didn't see a "black '68 coupe" [sic] in any of the junkyards did you?

yea! LOL! Although if you know anything about Hooterville, it's funny on TV but not in real life! I tell the Yankees around here, don't judge the South by this place. This is NOT typical!

Congratulations on getting all that shopping done Spike. Everybody here is pretty excited to see what you got us.

It's definitely a winter wonderland here. So far about 6 inches of the really wet and heavy variety. We lost electric for 5 hours but it's good now. Thankfully my wife doesn't work today. There was a fatal accident on a road this morning that she would have taken if she didn't have the day off....scarey thought that it could have been her. Cars were off the road all over the place this morning.

We had 330 new cases today. That's just over one and a half times as many as you, but with a population over 18 times as large.
