Hoss, those are three of the people who were on the panel I was talking about. The guy on the left didn't know who Boss Hogg was. When one of the ladies explained that he was on Starsky and Hutch she was quickly corrected by someone else who knew what she was talking about. The guy on the left (I think his name is Jeff Toobin) is CNN's legal expert. He might know a lot about the law but I kinda feel sorry for the poor feller, not being exposed to the finer things in life when he was a young man. By the way, look at the bottom of the sceeen on that CNN shot. Them fancy folks from the big city don't even know how to spell Hogg.

Friday (I'm old enough to remember when the original Dragnet series was on)

Hmmm, good one. Was it Agent Buchanan? I'm not sure but that's my guess. As far as Jesse's buddy goes, I know it but I'll give someone else a chance to guess. Thanks for posting a question!

This is a weird coincidence. If you go to the "Boss Hogg...CNN" thread that I just posted the one person on the panel I was talking about thought Boss Hogg was from Starsky and Hutch. Fortunately someone corrected her right away. I'm just surprised that I would hear about two Dukes-Starsky connections in two days...weird.

In case any of you new folks here don't know this.... This trivia thread was intended for everyone to ask trivia questions so if you have any...ask away. I'm only posting this because I thought it might be possible that folks might have noticed that me and Hoss have been the only two asking questions in the past. While that may be true, it hasn't been that way because others weren't permitted to post questions, it's only been that way simply because people haven't posted questions. We have some knowledgable new folks here so, like I said, ask away... Just make sure you're 100% sure of the answer before you ask!

Boss always wanted to be Governor of Georgia but lately a different Governor has been getting a little publicity for Boss. Before leaving office Governor Haley Barbour of Mississippi pardoned a few people from jail and that's been stirring up a lot of controversy on a national level. Since the moderators here are smart enough to not let us talk about politics, I'll be careful how I word this and not discuss the pardons themselves. Yesterday morning, a panel of folks were talking on CNN about Haley Barbour and several references were made comparing him to Boss Hogg. Tonight on CNN the attorney general of Mississippi was also making references to Boss Hogg. I sure got a chuckle out of it. By the way, CNN is based it Atlanta. That's just a coincidence of course but it does make the story even funnier.

To casual fans like me it doesn't seem like it's much time between NASCAR seasons but to die-hard fans like you two, this break is taking forever. Hang in there! Hey, NASCAR turns orange when I type it. It must be magic! (or a moderator) Woah, it's not orange anymore. What's going on?

Welcome to Hazzard County Ramiro. It sure sounds like you love the Dukes of Hazzard...so, you're going to love the HazzardNet! We're happy to have you here.

Spoken like a TRUE Dukes fan. You're a great addition to the HazzardNet!

Here's the answers... 1-B-England 2-B-Bo and Luke 3-A-Big Jake Marley 4-A-Jesse Duke 5-B-a roofless garbage hauler For the record, according to the regular series Jesse's wife wasn't named Elsie. She was named Martha or Lavinia depending on which episode she was mentioned. I like to think that Martha was her middle name and he occasionally called her by her middle name but it's subject to each individual's interpretation.

You amaze me with this stuff Hoss. And BTW congratulations on your 2000th post!

Happy birthday Boss!

Belated happy birthday Deputy Cletus!

Great question! I'm not sure which episode it was. Maybe High Octane. I was 19 and in the USMC stationed in Camp LeJeune North Carolina in 1979 when I went into a rec room to watch TV. The Dukes of Hazzard had just came out and everybody was talking about it. It just happened to be on when I walked in the room so I watched it out of curiosity and fell in love at first sight. It's been my favorite show ever since. I always thought that John Schneider was a lot older than me because I looked like I was 15 when I was 19 but I found out later that he was only born 7 days before me.

That's okay MM. I was pretty involved in watching the jumps so I didn't get bored. Plus I was too tired to stay up and celebrate in anybody else's time zone than my own.

Go #6!

I just got done watching the New Year's jump in San Diego with the motorcycle and snowmobile side by side on ESPN. It's amazing what those guys can do. The snowmobile went 412 feet and the motorcycle went 380. To put that in perspective, Evil Knieval's longest jump was 133 feet. Thankfully they both had safe landings. Seeing someone get hurt wouldn't have been a good way to start out the new year. Before that I logged into the chat room at 11:38 and texasdaisy09 was logging out at that exact moment so I missed her....so, if you're reading this texasdaisy09 we'd love to see you more often here on the HazzardNet and I'm sorry I missed you. Now I'm mad at myself for being 8 minutes late. Happy New Year everybody!
