That is so interesting Hoss. History is an unusual thing. It is always written by people in power and/or changed by them. That is why when I was a kid cowboys were portrayed as heros. Today, they are looked on by liberals as evil, hateful, murdering, rapists and racists. The truth..... as they say.....is usually somewhere in the middle. They weren't all good and they weren't all bad. Most of them were a little of both. Most people have a good and bad nature....devil on a shoulder and angel on the other.

I watched NBC Nightly News tonight and there were three experts on there accusing the US, Canada, Japan and Australia of being selfish for not sharing their vaccines with third world countries. Their reasoning is that a global pandemic can only be solved with a global mind-set.

When our last president restricted travel he was called a racict and xenophobe by the media. Now that our new president is restricting travel he is called a hero by the media.

Jeopardy (I can't believe how smart some of those folks are on that show.......of course they'd be amazed at us if they ever did an all Dukes version.....and let's be honest here.....Dukes is more important than Roman Literature, Medical Terminology, World Culture and The Cambrian Era)

I'm really going to town on my Vikings TV series. I guess they call it binging. At this rate I will finish all 6 seasons in 2 months. There's a lot of great European history in this series. It's only loosely based on real events so I've been looking stuff up to see if it is accurate. It's hard to believe a bunch of savage Vikings could have terrorized an advanced city like Paris to the degree that they did.....not to mention what they did in England.

Predictions can be changed up until kick off in two weeks. The person who is farthest away from their score prediction has to clean up the mess we make at the Boar's Nest for our Super Bowl party. The winner gets their choice of a quart of Jesse's shine or a gallon of Enos's buttermilk. Both are so good you'll never waste a sip.

Kansas City Chiefs....34 Tampa Bay Bucs.......17

Bucs and Tom Brady vs Chiefs and Patrick Mahhoms in the Super Bowl.

I don't know. My daughter bought it on-line as a Christmas present.

I just finished the book "Them Dukes! Them Dukes!" It was FANTASTIC! It is loaded with so much information! I did encounter a couple issues, like incorrect birthdays but I would highly recommend this book by Billie Rae Bates. She really is a big time fan.

Welcome to the HazzardNet Troy. Your horn is pretty awesome. Tell us more about your love of the Dukes. Favorite character, episode, scene, vehicle, season etc. Do you have all the DVDs? Did you ever meet any of the stars? Have a lot of collectibles? We sure hope you stay a long time. Look around. This place has information on every Dukes subject imaginable. Yeeeehhaww!

Hey Hobie, I just reread this post from last night and I realized it could have been misinterpreted. (You probably didn't and I'm probably worrying over nothing). My "fighting words" comment was not intended to refer to your post. It was intended to be for anybody who criticizes the DOH, like those politically correct folks who don't understand the Confederate Flag for example.....or anybody else who doesn't like Dukes for whatever reason. BTW The mention of Daisy's shorts on the survival show wasn't in a disrespectful manner.

buttermilk

Gotta respectfully disagree with you on that one. Any mention of the Dukes of Hazzard that it not intended to be critical is okay in my book........and any mention of Dukes of Hazzard that IS intended to be critical is fighting words in my book.

Then there's that old saying that I live by "You're only young once but you can be immature forever"

I've been watching a lot of those outdoor survival shows lately.....just in case I get lost in the woods the next time I go to Hobie's still.....I just watched Dual Survival (episode 68 in Mexico). They are given a back pack with different miscellaneous items in every episode. When Joe pulled out a pair of shorts he called them "Daisy Dukes". They ended up using a knife to scrape dry lint off them to use to start a fire. The first thing I thought is....those Daisy Dukes are pretty hot.

I know what you mean, you are getting pretty old Hobie. In fact, I don't ever remember you being this old. Is this the oldest you've ever been?

I'm up late tonight watching dirt bikes racing live. It's in Houston so there's a time difference. I used to have to record these and watch them the next day. Being retired is sweet.

If Hobie is going to bash lava lamps I'm not hanging around a Kitsch thread like this anymore. Hey, here's an idea....a moderator needs to post a warning message on the word association thread to warn sensitive tender folks like me that offensive thoughts might be contained here. Woops, never mind. It's the Hazzard Swamp. That warning has been there longer than me....LOL.....HazzardNet is a little like the Dukes episodes. The earlier ones were a little rougher.
