Mr. Low Tech here doesn't really understand how all that stuff works but I agree that HazzardNet needs as much exposure to other Dukes fans as it can get.

The Ransom of Hazzard County.....season 6 Enos's patrol car broke down so he got a ride in the General Lee with the boys and Daisy. Bo drove through a phony school crossing and Boss and Rosco pulled them over but to their surprise Enos popped his head out of the back window and since he was a witness Rosco couldn't ticket Bo. Boss wanted to fire Enos but he knew the townsfolk would revolt so, in a ceremony at the Boar's Nest, he "promoted" him to Commissioner of Records and stuck him in the courthouse basement where it is dusty and full of cobwebs. The ceremony was also the introduction of Boss's new deputy, Billy Joe Coogan, who got to work right away and arrested Bo and Luke after a car chase. What Boss didn't know was that Billy Joe had an accomplice named Eddie and the two were planning a scam. Jesse provided the bail money and while the Dukes were breaking the General out of the impound yard, Rosco and Boss discovered a note from The Doomsday Gang (Coogan and Eddie). They were demanding $150,000 in county fund money or they'd blow up the town. To show they were serious, Eddie called Boss and told him to look out the window and then blew up Rosco's sheriff's car. While the car was still smoking Rosco told the Dukes about the gang and their demands. The Dukes made a connection between Coogan and Eddie just as the two bad guys were planning on releasing the water in Hazzard Dam to get the money. (They didn't think they could get enough dynamite to blow it up). The Dukes then found out Coogan was a known criminal and also figured out the plan to release the water and flood the valley. Luke went to the dam but got knocked out by Eddie. Enos found out Coogan was a member of the gang but Coogan ended up locking him, Boss and Rosco in jail and taking the county money and driving away. He told Eddie to turn the valves and start the flood, which he did. Bo, Daisy and Jesse then caught Coogan and went to the dam to help Luke stop Eddie. They turned the valves off before too much water was let go. Coogan and Eddie got thrown in jail. Jesse made sure the money got returned to the county. Enos got his job back. -- Coogan reminded me a lot of Cletus. He could pass for his brother. Or maybe it was just the uniform. -- When the boys discover a map of Hazzard Dam in Coogan's sheriff's car they figured out what was going on. It was raining in that scene. This might be the only scene in 7 years where it rained. Does anybody know if that is correct?

Now, that's an amazing coincidence Hoss!

How have you been airdream? It's good to hear from you again. That blue house looks like Boss's......even though it was white on the show.

Thanks Hoss. You always amaze me with your ability to find things. I guess it's no surprise I didn't know the movie considering it was nearly 50 years old when Dukes season 6 was on. Clark Gable was known as "The King" of the movies. I always joke that I'm royalty because I'm related to him. His mother is buried a few miles from me. She died young. Clark was too little to have any memories if her. Bo does a Clark Gable impersonation in Robot P Coltrane.

Close Call for Daisy......season 6 "The crime czar of the whole state", Nervous Norman Willis comes into Hazzard County in the back seat of his limo with his bodyguard/driver named Jake in the front. When the General Lee backfired right behind him Norman thought it was gunfire and shot the General's radiator out. There was more bad Duke luck when Norman came into town. Jake parked in front of the church where Daisy was standing in a nurse's uniform because she had been practicing for a play. Norman thought he was having a heart attack and thought Daisy was a real nurse and while she was calming him down the two got their notebooks switched. When they parted ways, Norman had the lines Daisy was supposed to read in the play and Daisy had a book of Norman's illegal activities and information on other crime bosses. When Boss finds out Nervous Norman is in town he gets nervous himself because he has been short-changing him in their illegal business dealings and suspects Norman is there to kill him. The Dukes figure out Daisy is in danger but don't know why. Jake and Norman started chasing Daisy in Dixie and shot out the General's tires but luckily Daisy got away anyways. The 4 Dukes, Cooter and Enos met at Timbertop and agreed that Enos's place is the safest location to hide Daisy. Norman visited Boss and Boss made a big mistake by confessing that he was short-changing him. The problem for Boss was that Norman didn't know about it before then. The Dukes figured out that Norman was looking for his notebook and in the morning Daisy gave Enos a kiss and Rosco later noticed the lipstick and Enos told him where Daisy was. Norman and Jake kidnapped her but the General took off after them but later stopped when Luke got on the CB and agreed to trade Daisy for the notebook later. Bo picked up the notebook at the post office because the dry cleaners found it and mailed it to the farm. Jesse and Cooter disguised themselves at Cutler and Monday, two of Norman's rivals who wanted him dead. They scared Norman and Jake when they were making the exchange and Bo and Luke ended up with Daisy. They chased the bad guys to the steam plant where they caught them and then the FBI swooped in and took them away. -- This episode has the classic scene where Boss and Rosco are on opposite ends of an extension ladder, balanced on the back of a truck going through town. -- In Enos's place, he puts up a clothes line and uses blankets to make a wall. Waylon comments that he had seen that movie too. Does anybody here know what movie he's talking about?

How did this turn out Spike? We got the roof finished today. I even had time to go kayaking later. I saw two bald eagles perched right beside each other. They've gotten to the point that I wouldn't consider them to be rare around here anymore. Still, I still get a thrill every time I see one....or two,

Tomorrow will be the last day on the roof. We ran out of materials and daylight today. I can't wait to start watching some Dukes episodes again.

The Georgia boy has won it all. At 24 years old Chase Elliott becomes the third youngest driver to win a championship. Only Jeff Gordon and Bill Rexford were younger. He and his father Bill are only the third father/son duo to win championships. The other two were the Pettys and Jarretts. Chase won 5 races this year and since his father was mentioned on Dukes and he is a Georgia boy he is Roger Duke's favorite! Nice job Chase!

So sorry to hear about that Skipper. Hearing about a death is always a shock even if it was awhile ago. You have my sympathy and prayers and so does your family and Roger's family.

It was good to hear from you msmontecarlo. Am I correct in guessing that Halloween is your favorite holiday?

Another day working on the neighbor's roof. We've made a lot of progress. There are 3 more days of nice weather forecast so we should be able to finish it before then.

Worked on the roof all day today and will do the same Saturday. They've been great neighbors for 41 years so I'm happy to help them......doesn't leave much time for Dukes though. I'll try to catch an episode Saturday night.

The weather is unbelievable. My neighbor asked him to help him with his roof so I'll be doing that all day tomorrow and my nephew is building a house so it sure is nice to get summer weather in November when trying to wrap up big projects. I ended up kayaking on Lake Erie today. It was a little rough but not too bad.

Oh yea.....LOL.....she's the one that I mentioned was pretty., She's okay I suppose but she's not on the same top level as Emma Tisdale.

No response from Skipper? He must not have seen this thread......just kidding.....I bet he's just being humble.

After getting our first snow a couple days ago we had a warm beautiful sunny day today and the forecast for the next 7 days is exactly the same as today. I worked outside around the house today and I'm going kayaking tomorrow.

If I had only one word to describe Skipper it definitely would be enthusiastic!

How to Succeed in Hazzard......season 6 While Bo is on the NASCAR circuit Hughie Hogg's older brother Dewey comes into Hazzard County in an ambulance that runs Jesse and Luke off the road in Jesse's truck and ruins a load of eggs. When Dewey arrives in town he is with a nurse and a big guy who is his driver. The first people they see are Cooter and Daisy. Dewey tells them he is dying and coughs a lot. He later tells his Uncle Boss that he caught a terminal sleeping disease while selling frozen hog jowls in deepest Africa. Folks don't believe him at first but Boss does when he sees the pre-dug grave and tombstone that Dewey has completed. Dewey wants to build a memorial medical clinic named after him. He needs $150,000 to build it. He has a third, he wants Boss to match that and the folks of Hazzard to donate the final $50,000. Boss is so blinded by greed that he agrees after Dewey tells his uncle that he'll get $300,000 in life insurance money after he dies. Boss and Dewey hold a public meeting at the gazebo and convince the townsfolks to donate and then Boss appoints the most honest person in Hazzard in charge of the money, Jesse Duke. After getting together the $150,000 Jesse put the money in safe deposit box #115. Later, Dewey switched it to box #114 and when Boss found out it was missing he ordered Jesse arrested but he got away. Luke thought of a plan to convince Dewey that he really was dying so he would lead them to the money and was able to get Boss to go along with it by convincing him his nephew was running a scam. At Boss's house, Boss, Daisy, Rosco, and Luke see Dewey and congratulate him for a successful scam. They then break out a bottle of bubbly and toast him but Luke doesn't have any. Rosco then faked his death from being poisoned, then Daisy, then Boss do the same. After a phone call, Luke convinced Dewey he was dying and Dewey and Luke then went to box #114 and got the money but Dewey snuck out with it by squeezing through box #133 and took off in the ambulance with his accomplices, bound for South America. The driver dropped off Dewey and his nurse with the money and they hopped on a dune buggy that was hidden and went cross country with Luke and Daisy in pursuit in the General Lee. After Dewey's comment "one last maneuver and we're home free" they ended up stuck in his own pre-dug grave. Later, Bo called from the circuit and later still, Boss had a ceremony celebrated the start of construction on the renamed J D Hogg Memorial Clinic.

While the Fan of the Month isn't exactly monthly anymore, I just felt compelled to thank Skipper Duke for all the energy he has been providing here on the best website on the internet. Skipper was the first person who befriended me in my short experience on Facebook and I'm proud to be his friend here on the HazzardNet. Thanks for all your contributions Skipper. Your enthusiasm is contagious and we are really lucky and excited to have you as a member of our family. Congratulations on being the Fan of the Month for November 2020!

You are right Skipper. It is a cool name!

I love Halloween and Christmas. They both make me feel like I'm a kid again. Especially when it comes to watching stuff on TV. I have a DVD of The Great Pumpkin, Scooby-Doo stuff and Ernest Scared Stupid and watch them every year. I DVR stuff every year too from tame stuff like Halloweentown to a little scarier like Johnny Depp's Sleepy Hollow. Last night was nice because it has been cloudy for a week but we had a clear sky for the Hslloween Full Moon.

Me neither. I just love this picture! Thanks for posting it MMan. We went another year without getting a single trick or treater. We just live too far out in the sticks I guess. Our grandkids spent the night Friday so we did give some candy away.

So cool! If you punch a hole through the wall do you end up in Rhuebottom's? Seriously though, fantastic job and thanks for posting this!

I learn something every day that I hang out with Awesome Hossome.
