LOL I wasn't even thinking about you when I posted my Uncle Jesse rant Hoss. You're an old-timer like me compared to CDoherty and I'm not worried about you getting carried away on the road. I also wasn't insinuating that you were promoting crazy driving. What you did was in a relatively safe environment with little or no chance of SERIOUS injury. I'm fine with that. Kids (and old kids like us) need to have fun. I still own a dirt bike (Yahama TW-200) and, even at 50+ I still like to get crazy on occasion. But "crazy" is a relative term. I'm always concerned about kids just learning how to drive because of fast speeds on public highways. Speed can be addicting. When a curve is no longer a thrill to take at 50 mph, kids will drive 60 and then 70 until they're dead like my cousin Bobby. But, back to the question. When I was a teenager, my grandmother surprised me on an isolated country road and pulled her copper colored Chevy Malibu (I think it was a Malibu) over and said I could drive. It happened so fast I didn't even have time to be nervous. I drove about a half mile with no curves and I'll never forget it. I still think about that experience occasionally when I go down that stretch of road which isn't too far from my house. Grandma mourned Bobby up until the day she died and so will I. Be careful CDougherty and please don't give in to those urges you mentioned.

I have to admit you're scaring me a little bit here. I'm sure you know this but I feel compelled to say it anyways since my cousin (who was also my best friend) was killed when he was 16 going too fast on a curve in a Chevy Nova. The Dukes of Hazzard had trained professional drivers. The stunts they did were on closed coarses and not public roads. Do not....I repeat DO NOT try to do things you have seen on the Dukes of Hazzard no matter how many urges you get. Millions and millions of people have watched the Dukes of Hazzard through the decades and were not effected by the show when they hit the road. Please join the ranks of all those responsible drivers and seperate fantasy from reality. We want you on the HazzardNet for the next 80 years and I'm sure your family and friends want you around that long too. My cousin's death was before the Dukes came out in 1979. That's a long time ago but it's still being felt today by a lot of people who loved him. In fact his birthday's coming up, Dec 22. Please be careful. I'm only saying all this because I care about you. (Not only that but I do like to yell at folks around here like Uncle Jesse yelled at Bo and Duke)...that's only because I care. Keep us updated on your progress.

Since Rosco's the Ten Million Dollar Sheriff I guess that means MaryAnne's making about $60,000,000 a year working here. But wait...as I recall from the second part of that episode it was only 10 dollars...so, that's 60 bucks...minus the money she has to shell out for food at the two upcoming Christmas parties and the bail she has to put up after the parties for Brian.... Hmm...if I was MaryAnne, I'd be moving on down the line to a place that pays better. Does Knight Rider have a website?

Congratulations on adding Sheriff Little to the list of Dukes stars you represent. We sure appreciate you updating us on how they're doing and are grateful you contribute to the HazzardNet!

Head on up to the 2011 Christmas party thread on the Christmas forum for details about our two parties on Saturday Dec 17th and Tuesday December 20th.

Woops, I sure did. Saturday the 17th at 6 pm EST it is. Thanks MaryAnne. Now I know why you get paid a six figure salary around here. You don't miss a thing. Thank you again very much.

You got it right Lizzy!

Pittsburgh Steelers

You got it right Brian. Sonny still looks like he could bench press 300. Where was Luke's brother, Jud "Killer" Kane raised? A) Tullahoma Atlanta C) Detroit D) Harperville E) Smurf Village

Impressive!

It's official. There will be two Christmas parties this year. The first one will be Friday Dec 17th at 6:00 PM Eastern Standard time and will continue until we're all admitted to the emergency room with food poisoning from the buttermilk and egg nog. The second one will be Tuesday Dec 20th at 6:00 EST and will continue until we're all admitted to the emergency room with injuries sustained by a drunk reindeer's nasty antlers. If your GPS is broken see Hoss's last post for directions.

Mad Max

In "Repo Men" what hobby did Enos say he liked to do? A) astronomy running C) collecting old bottles D) weightlifting E) hunting F) send tweets

A fight? Is that what you called that? Sometimes it's hard for us humans to tell if you creatures of nature are fighting or just having a little fun. By the way, in case MaryAnne causes another fuse to blow again, are you inviting your cousin to the party...you know, the one with the unusual nose?

Nice job B.L. You got all five right.

Nice to have you here RT22306. Thanks for serving your country. We hope to hear a lot more from you.

Wow, what a shock! just kidding I voted for Davd Ragen

Wow, that's a tough question.....and a good one. Thanks for posting it CDoherty. If I would have been rating my obsession level since 1979 I'd say it's fluctuated between a 10 and 6. Currently it's probably an 8 since I have so much else going on in my life. Before I joined the HazzardNet in 2007 I'd never used a computer before. My daughter told me you could find anything on the internet. Of course my reaction was "The Dukes of Hazzard?" She found the HazzardNet for me and from that day on I've had a second family....only, not an imaginary family like the Dukes but a real family thanks to people like you.

Of course I am....but you're still on my naughty list Nasty. But, on the other hoof, you say you've turned over a new punchbowl. Since I'm an optimist I'm going to replace "punchbowl" with "leaf" and give you the benefit of the doubt. This means that we'll be returning the misteltoe to the parties this year. After all, it was Nasty's fault we had to get rid of it to begin with. But the first time Nasty pokes someone in the eye with his antlers I'm tearing it down and throwing it in the fireplace.

Hoss got all five right. Which of these country and western music stars were on the Dukes? (Back then they still used "western" in the name) Hank Williams Jr. OR Mel Tillis Crystal Gayle OR Tammy Wynette Hoyt Axton OR George Jones Johnny Cash OR Johnny Paycheck Janie Fricke OR Lynn Anderson

Very funny! We used to have a cat named Flash. He didn't look like that one though. He didn't look like Rosco's hound either.
