Boss responded on the CB, his voice bold and full of confidence. "Well, well now Mr Aussler. It's nice to know that you big shot city lawyers like to do things the old fashioned way, face to face. However my client hasn't filled out the papers to drop the charges and until he does your client is still a prisoner and is still in the confinement of the Hazzard County Police Department of which I sir, am the Commissioner. Unfortunately I'm forced to leave the county for the night on official business and won't be able to meet you until morning. I'll call you on this CB channel at precisely 9 AM tomorrow and let you know where to meet." Still driving with Jeff handcuffed in the back Rosco looked at Boss, confused. "Um, where are you spending the night Boss.?" Sitting in the passenger seat Boss responded. "Not me, all three of us. Take us over to Old Ridge Road in Chocktaw County. I need to see someone who owes me a favor." Rosco's eyes got wide. "Are we going to see who I think we're going to see? If so nothing good's gonna come from it. He's a low down sidewinder snake who can't be trusted." Boss smiled. "He might be low down but he's not as low down as me. Besides he owes me a favor and has something I need."

After some consideration Boss answers the CB call. "This is Police Commissioner Jefferson Davis Hogg calling Mr Thom Aussler. Do you copy?" Aussler "Yes I do Mr. Hogg." "Well Mr. Aussler sir, we seems to have a developing situation here. The victim, my innocent and devoted public servant, Mr. Rosco Pervus Coltrane is seriousely considering dropping all the criminal charges against this ruthless violent criminal but I'm afraid to say that he is also considering a civil suit against him. As Mr. Coltrane's lawyer I should advise you that my client is considering a possible...how should we say....out of court settlement to ease all the physical and emotional damage he has endured since this horrific attempted murder occured." Jeff Gordon was momentarily stunned and speechless in the backseat. Rosco smiled widely. "Khee Khee. I just love it when you talk that fancy lawyer talk Boss. Does this mean that I'm gonna get 50% of 50% of 50% after that hot shot lawyer hands over the greenbacks?......and by the way Boss, I never said any of that stuff." Boss "Rosco I'd be on the road to turning HOGGOCO Oil into a multinational trillion dollar corportation if it weren't for you and your Mama. You ain't getting a red cent." Rosco "But Boss, I thought I told you Jeff wasn't going to race anyhow so I don't know how it could be my fault." Boss "Hush Rosco! You hush right now or you're fired and you'll walk home from here."

Now that you're almost 30 years old you're going to find out that it takes longer to recover from sickness.

When you get the league registered find out what the minimum number of players needed is. I was wondering if you're going to try and have this be a HazzardNet league even if it's small. I think that would be fun but if we can't get enough Hazzard folks maybe we'll have to find others. I know at least two guys who might be interested if it comes to that. Are you going to have Hazzard in the league name? LOL

Shucks! Right after I posted in the Hazzard Swamp that I hope you're having the best birthday ever, I come up here and see that you're not. I think you should put in "The Great Santa Claus Chase". That might help. In fact, watch that one and whichever other ep is your all time favorite. In other words: Take two episodes and call me in the morning.

I join you in that hope Santa. Merry Christmas and thanks for all the great presents.

Happy birthday Meadowmufn. We sure hope you're having the best birthday ever because you sure deserve it. *HUGS* For an update on MM's birthday go up to the Official Merry Christmas thread.

Count me in as your first official challenger Garrett. This will be a much more exciting NASCAR season for me now that I'm going to have an opportunity to show you my vast cavern of NASCAR knowledge. Well, maybe I shouldn't call it a vast cavern. Tiny pothole is more like it For those of you unsure about fantasy sports, trust me....yahoo makes it real easy to play....and that's coming from me, someone who's terrible with computers. I think you have to have a free yahoo e-mail account first though. Although I'm not sure if that's still the case.

After hitting Rosco with his own sheriff's hat Boss throws the hat on the ground and stands on it. He then twists his foot on it, grinding it into the dirt. Boss then points his finger at Rosco, coming an inch from his nose. He's completely furious and his voice displays it "Rosco Pervus Coltrane. All my life I've waited for a big deal like this. One that would have me up there rubbing elbows with them big shot oil men like Lamar Hunt and J.R. Ewing. All I needed to do was win that race with that fancy pants NASCAR driver in there and I would have had enough publicity to launch HOGGOCO Oil into the stratosphere. But you had to go and ruin it by calling your Mama so she could get an autograph." Rosco squinted his eyes as if Boss was going to hit him again then humbly responded "Uh Boss, I really don't think you can blame this on me and my dear old Mama. I mean, I don't think that Jeff Gordon was plan on driving in that race anyway." Boss huffed "Well, that don't make no never mind anyhow on account of we got bigger things to worry about. Them Duke boys are going to be heading over here soon because they was bound to be listening so we have to get our hostage...er, I mean prisoner....out of here." Several minutes later the three men were in the patrol car racing down Mill Pond Road.

Count me in Garrett. It will be an honor getting beat by such a knowledgable NASCAR fan as you. (Of course beating you would be even more fun and that's exactly what I plan on doing) I'm wondering if you should start a new thread and title it 2013 Fantasy NASCAR. I think folks might avoid clicking on this thread since it's title is old. And....if you do it now the first post will be dated Dec 25! What a great Christmas present....the official start of your NASCAR league.

I watched this episode earlier today and I always feel emotional at the ending scene. I loved this picture of Uncle Jesse that Hoss posted and it means so much more since this Christmas is the 15th anniversary of Denver Pyle's death. He truly was like an uncle to all of us and in many ways still is. Thanks Garrett for reminding us of the 15th anniversary on Denver's thread.

Thanks for posting this Garrett. I hadn't realized that it's been 15 years. I still mourn my hero and always will. Denver's death to me personally is a great lesson in life. I never got the chance to meet him and I'll always regret that I didn't make the effort to do so. It's very important to take advantage of things while you can in life because quite often you don't get a second chance. Rest in peace Denver and Merry Christmas celebrating with Jesus in Heaven.

Boss exhaled a puff of cigar smoke into Jeff's face. "You just aren't getting this now are you boy? Look around. Look at your situation. You're not exactly in a position of strength to be negotiating. This is Hazzard County. It might as well be it's own nation because I'm the king here and nobody on the outside disputes that or bothers me. Now make yourself comfortable because you're gonna be here awhile. I'll have my sheriff come back in a day or two with some bread and water. Come on Rosco." Outside of the dynamite shack Boss looked worried. "Rosco, I have to admit this guy's got nerves of steel. I reckon it has something to do with his profession. Anyhow, I just don't think I can crack him. What am I gonna do now? I can't keep him her forever." Rosco "Do you think we should light that dynamite?" Boss "Rosco, I hope you're joking. You know I'd never do that" Rosco "Good thing Boss. My Mama wanted me to bring her here later to get an autograph." Boss looked shocked "Rosco, how in the world does your Mama know that Jeff Gordon is in my dynamite shack?" Rosco "I called her on the CB about a half hour ago when we pulled over on the side of River Ridge Road so you could go to the bathroom." Boss was furious "Which CB channel did you use?" Rosco "22" Boss took off Rosco's hat and hit him on the head with it. "What's wrong with you? Don't you know that's the channel them dang blasted Dukes use?!"

Thank you so much Hoss. This is my all time favorite scene in the entire history of the show. Just imagine walking into that Christmas party! That would be Hazzard heaven.

Come on now Meadowmufn. I've been a resident of the HazzardNet community for several years now and have never once said something that was substantial or insightful. Oh I get it, you were expecting a Christmas miracle!

Okay, 2013 is almost here and this is the only forum that hasn't had a single post in 2012. For some reason that bothered me when I scrolled down the forum selections today. I'm not sure why it bothered me. I guess that's just the way I am. So, to correct this terrible flaw I'v decided to post this (nearly) completely useless rant that is intended to do nothing but make me feel better. It worked.....even though I feel sorry for anybody who clicked on it.

It's been awhile since we've had a good role play on this particular forum. Any ideas? If not I'll think of something.

That's Enos's LTD station wagon. Grady Byrd's blue Cadillac. Actually I think it's his Mama's car. It's Rosco's La Mans. And I think Cletus had the Cougar. Grady Byrd's was in "Officer Daisy Duke" Enos's was in "The Ransom of Hazzard County" Rosco's was in "To Catch a Duke" Cletus's was in "Money to Burn" I'm not sure about these so I hope someone corrects me before Hoss reveals the answers.

Merry Christmas everybody. Hey Hoss, any chance of getting a couple screengrabs of the Christmas party at the Duke farm at the end of "The Great Santa Claus Chase"? That sure would be a nice touch to this thread.

Thanks for the picture Hoss. If they wanted to see the stars it would be a good idea to turn those stupid lights off but I suspect they're not seeing many stars anyways. Bo is paying more attention to Gabby than the Milky Way. I might be an amateur astronomer but I'm a Dukes fan too and I can tell you that I'd rather see a star named John Schneider than spend a night looking at the other kind of stars.
