Speaking of the Cubs did anybody see the insurance commercial where the Cub (I'm not even sure who he is) was pulling things out of the ivy at Wrigley Field? After pulling out a few items he then pulled out former Cub Andre Dawson. Andre looked around then asked "What year is it?" I saw it last night during the home run derby and cracked up.... .....and of course I thought of a certain Cubs fan here on the HN. Tonight's the All-Star game!
Thanks for the update Garrett. I was at a family reunion all day so haven't seen any of the highlights on TV yet. David Ragen...26th? Well, I guess that's better than he's done in a lot of races but I was hoping he'd surprise folks with a top 10 finish. What state's Loudon in? I didn't even know they gave drug tests in NASCAR. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. They're required in most jobs nowadays.
Yep, that's it... and that breaks the record for quickest time answering a tough question... ten minutes. Since you're on a roll maybe you should head on down and see if you can get all 3 Duke or Dupes. Thanks Hoss!
This new Dallas is pretty interesting. Bobby tried to sell SouthFork Ranch but JR stopped him. Now I really hate to be on JRs side but I sure didn't want to see the ranch get sold. Dallas wouldn't be the same without it....so I've become a JR fan for a little while. Dallas without SouthFork would be like the Dukes without their farm....like that time they almost moved to Hatchapee....perish the thought.
Lizzy and BL are right. Right after I posted the question I saw the post about sharing birthdays with the stars of the show. Cool coincidence! From "Deputy Dukes" who said "We're country boys. We don't use no money. We just barter our way through life. Ya know, if you was to offer me a bushel of corn there ain't no tellin' what I might do for ya."? A) Bo Luke
Little John Schneider was just 7 days old when I was born. We're both 52. My grandson Luke (not named after Luke Duke) was born on Waylon's birthday (June 15)
I had the opportunity to meet Tim at a Dukes event in Canton Ohio. You're certainly right Brian. He sure is passionate about the General Lee. I don't know anybody who knows more about 1969 Chargers than he does. .....and he certainly is worthy of the Fan of the Month award. Congratulations Tim and keep your General between the ditches!
There is no place in the entire series where they revealed how old any of the Dukes were. On "Happy Birthday General Lee" Luke said that they first got the General when Bo was just out of high school and Luke was just out of the Marines. That would imply that Luke is four years older than Bo because 90% of Marines back then only stayed in four years. But that presents a problem because in a different episode Luke's Marine buddy comes to town and it is revealed that Luke was a combat vet in VietNam ( I think that was "The Great Hazzard Hijack). If Bo got out of high school in 1978 (like John Schneider did) Luke would have joined the Marines in 1974 but US Marines weren't in combat situations that late in the war to the best of my knowledge. Swamp Molly rescued Jesse from the Feds in 1936. Denver Pyle was born in 1920. Boss's brother was born on 4-6-26 according to the episode "Baa Baa White Sheep" Since they're twins that means Boss was born then too. Rosco was 48 in the episode "Mrs Rosco P Coltrane" and was the quarterback for Hazzard High in 1944 in a different episode. Of course how old they were in real life compared to their ficticious ages were two different things. Enos and Daisy were shown to be about the same age but Sonny's waaay older than Catherine.
All I see is a red X where the picture is supposed to be. I would like to learn about how to get parts like those. Of course the big problem would be insuring that they're authentic. Hopefully someone can get your pictures to pop up.
Complete the name of this episode from the Dukes cartoon series. Boss O'Hogg and the Little (blank)" A) Surprise Treasure C) Secret D) Fib E) People F) Sheriff
Wow, I bet that 4,5,6 matchup gave the commentators a lot to talk about. You don't too often see these three future hall of famers bunched up that close together. Thanks for the update Garrett and thanks again for letting me know about David Ragen.
