They never said how much older Luke was than Bo but I guess that Luke was 4-7 years older. The reason I say that is on "Happy Birthday General Lee" when they first got the General Lee (it was black) Luke said to Bo "You were just out of high school and I was just out of the Marines". I know from experience that in that era a stint in the Marines was a minimum of 4 years....of course it was possible to do more or less because of the VietNam War....which Luke served in. Since the show started in 1979 and there were few or no American troops there in 1975 it is possible that Luke could have been in longer than 4 years and that's why I said 4-7. Daisy was somewhere in between them in age although I can't remember which episode said that. I'm excited that you're interested!

snow Leave it to Hobie to think of white lightning.

We're sure glad to have you here. I'm a big Lord of the Rings fan. I'd love to travel there and see where it was filmed. I never will but I can dream about it. Do you live anywhere near the Shire? I have a friend from Tasmania. I know that's not real close but it's (as us Americans say) near your neck of the woods.

You're older than I thought. I don't know what was making me think you were younger. I suppose it's not possible to make shine as good as yours and be young. Talent like that takes decades to acquire.

Welcome to the HazzardNet Tania! We sure are happy you're here and hope you stay a long time. I never watched Smallville but I was excited that my daughters became John Schneider fans because of it.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know that. 1979! That's the year Dukes came out. I was 19. Sometimes it seems like yesterday and sometimes it feels like 100 years.

I never noticed that. Maybe he was a Charlie Daniels fan and that was his way of expressing it.

I know what that one means. It's when a girl named Sarah puts her toes in the water. Saradipintoes

I'm just teasing you Hoss. I love dem fancy words. In fact it might be a fun game if you posted another so we could guess what it is.....we promise not to google it! Make it tough.

Hey Hoss, can you post some more fancy words? This is kinda fun. I'm having a yutilletarian good time.

I'm not sure if Hoss's definition of an apocryphal is the truth or an apocryphal.

We've been recording Beverly Hillbillies lately and got lucky yesterday when they aired the very first episode. The writing was fantastic. It seems like the older the episode was the funnier it was and the first is hilarious. They start out with them driving into Beverly Hills for the first time and then they back up (the truck then literally backs up) to show the viewer how they ended up leaving their shack.

I didn't think it was one single bit apocryphal Hoss. Of course I don't know what apocryphal means so maybe that's why I didn't think it.

This reminds me of a quote by Henry Ford. I'm not sure if it's true or not but I've heard it several times. Back then he didn't want to paint new cars different colors so he said "They can have one in any color they'd like as long as it's black."

I met Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin at a high school basketball playoff game last night. His son was playing in it. As a lifelong Steeler fan it was pretty cool especially since I wasn't expecting it.

Hey, Idk means I don't know. Woops, sorry wt. (wrong thread). Seriousely though, thanks for sharing these pictures.

There was a cartoon when I was a kid called Go Go Gophers and one of them had the catch phrase "What him say? What him say?" I feel like that gopher a lot.

See, you folks thought that I was just a low tech old redneck who couldn't learn anything about this new language but I just showed all of you that I'm better at it than anybody.

When I see some of the abbreviations these kids use on their devices I think that many words are going to change permanently. Languages and words are constantly evolving but we're going to have a flood of words being replaced with other ones. A hundred years from now English will be much diff. (pun intended)
