    I was watching TV 24 (ABC) local news tonight out of Erie Pennsylvania and saw a terribly tragic story. There was a fire near Erie PA and two men were unable to escape and were killed. Of course I wouldn't be reporting this tragedy here if there wasn't a Dukes connection. The camera was filming scenes of the remains of the home and one of the clips showed a room that had several shelves with toy and model cars. Some of the cars were melted and damaged but a few weren't. The car in the middle of the group was a General Lee. My heart goes out to the families of the victims.

    ROFL...Good one Hoss. Well there were people who died on the show but we never saw them....like Silas Hogg. There were also quite a few widows in Hazzard. Uncle Jesse lost his wife and the three younger Dukes lost six parents much earlier but all of this tragedy never inflicted much pain on the viewer. Seeing Rosco cry over Boss's picture did inflict pain...real pain because not only was Boss dead on the show but for real. After losing Lulu, Swamp Molly, Paul Baxley and the original Duke farm lately, it hurts to see parts of the show end forever but I am comforted in knowing that those loses can't take away the Hazzard County that will endure for generations....thanks to today's youth becoming fans.

    Your post had a lot of thought behind it and I appreciated it. I agree with you about the part where Rosco talking to Boss was emotional (not to mention unbelievable acting) but it is just too sad for me. That's one of the reasons I didn't like the show. I'm not sure where that Hazzard County is located but, in the Hazzard County I know, people we love don't die. Even people like Artie Bender and Henry Flatt are alive even though they appear to be dead. Once Boss thought he had a terminal illness but found out it was just an erroneous medical report. Once, the whole town of Hazzard thought that Bo and Luke drown after driving in a lake but they were actually fine. Boss and Jesse almost suffocated in the bank vault but they lived to tell about it. That's just how things are in the real Hazzard County. The Hazzard County of the reunion shows is not reality in my mind and I will never accept them. LONG LIVE HAZZARD COUNTY!! (and all it's residents)

    I checked my notebook and, sure enough, I'm wrong. Here's a hint to anyone else who wants to guess. The County name starts with a D.

    "ROSCO!" yelled Boss in his deep voice after the door slammed. Rosco opened the door and looked at Boss confused "Uh, what is it Boss?" "Do you have a plan to catch Mr Jeff Gordon?" "Uh, sure Boss, you know me. Have you ever known a time when I didn't have a plan?" Boss looked disgusted "Is it a plan that'll work or is it one of your usual plans?" "Khee Khee! Oh, don't you worry. It'll work all right." "It'd better or you'll be in the unemployment line." Rosco shut the door and quietly muttered to himself "It's a good thing he didn't ask what my plan is because I don't have a clue. Khee Khee!" He stepped outside and saw Enos sitting in his patrol car. "Move over boy. I'm driving. We're going to go catch Jeff Gordon and if hot pursuit's involved I'm going to need a real wheel man driving, namely me, Sheriff Rosco P Coltrane!"

    I was driving yesterday with my wife in the passenger seat and I was talking about the Dukes of Hazzard....specifically about boards I'm going to be getting from the original Duke farm. Anyway, that subject always makes me a little sad, even though I'm happy to be getting some historic souveniers. And, almost as if the Good Lord felt my sadness and wanted to cheer me up an amazing thing happened. Just as I was talking about the boards I looked over in the Tim Horton parking lot we were driving by and saw an old white Ford truck like Uncle Jesse's......guess what......it had an 01 painted on the door in black numbers. I told my wife as we were driving past and we looked at the other door but it didn't have the 01 because it was a different color, as if it had been recently replaced. If we wouldn't have been on a schedule I would have gone in and struck up a conversation with the owner but when I start talking about Dukes I don't shut up anytime soon so we just moved on. I'll be on the look out for that truck. I hope I get the opportunity to thank the owner for cheering me up!

    Nice! someone else who is somewhat computer illiterate. Now I don't feel so lonely anymore amongst all these computer geniuses.

    Shucks I don't know. I think it's only mentioned once in the series though. I'm going with Pawtucket but I don't think that's right. By the way Hoss, I think it's Jim, not John. If I'm right I bet that's the first error you've made since you took over the trivia thread.

    Welcome to Hazzard County Brad. We're always glad to have a new face in town and hope you stay a long time. I love your comment "real tv". You sure got that right.

    Boss "Didn't he just win that big race in Atlanta?" Rosco "You got that right Boss...first place" Boss responded sarcastically, still upset about the wrecked cars "Well I ain't never heard of no second place winner you turnup brain....how much you figure that first place win is worth?" Rosco "Uh, a lot.....I wonder if they paid him in cash?" Boss "Rosco, Lulu has pink flamingos in the yard smarter than her baby brother. Of course Jeff Gordon don't get paid in cash. NASCAR hasn't paid the winners in cash for years. But that don't matter none. He made more money in that race than you'll make in your whole life so you'd better git out there and git that leadfoot and milk him for some of that money or you're going to be out of a job faster than Jimmie Johnson finishes a lap at the Poconos!" Rosco turned around and walked out. Just before the door slammed Boss could hear him say "I'm gone!"

    Well, I don't know about nice since there's folks like Garrett and Lori hanging out here...but it is interesting!

    I'm going to guess that it's a trick question and it has none.
