Wow Garrett for a second there I didn't know if I was reading a script from a race written for an episode of Dukes or a real NASCAR race. It sounded pretty crazy! Am I correct in assuming that Gordon thought he had a problem because a gauge on his instrument panel told him there was a problem? If not, he must have heard something that made him think there was a problem. I'd be interested in finding out what it was all about. I'll agree with you. It sounds like ESPN was being insensitive to AJ. My guess is that the folks at ESPN were arguing amongst themselves how to cover things when two dramatic things are going on at the same time. If they covered AJ too much and he wasn't hurt, folks would ctiticize them for not covering the winner. If AJ was hurt and they spent too much time covering the winner, they look insensitive. The bottom line is that someone's life is more important than a checkered flag....(or the end of a white flag in this case). Thanks again for your detailed analysis.

*Grabbing a large dead stick for a club Jesse heads over to help Luke and Daisy only to see that the smaller monster is laid out and not moving. He then turns to the larger monster, also laying down, but as his club starts to swing downward, he notices a man's head sticking out of the costume. Shocked, Jesse sees the familiar face of Milo Beaudry* Jesse "Milo?!" Milo "Yes sir Mr. Duke. Please don't hit me. I'm sorry fer all the trouble we caused." Jesse "We?" *Jesse looks over at Luke and Daisy as they're pulling off the head of the costume wore by Milo's brother* Daisy "Sledge Beaudry?!" *Sledge still hadn't regained conscienceness* Luke "What in the world's going on here?" *Behind Jesse another figure enters the picture. It's Hard luck Jones* HLJ "I'll tell ya what's a going on." Jesse interrupts "I think I already figured it out. I do believe I smell shine in the air" Hard Luck *looking ashamed* "That's right Jesse. That job I got at the distillery wasn't very exciting so I went back to my old ways. I figured the swamp was a pretty safe place but being the cautious feller I am I hired these boys to scare folks away from the still." Jesse "But that's impossible. The monster I saw 50 years ago looked exactly the same as the costume Milo has on." Hard Luck "It is the same Jesse. My grandpap made that costume fer the same thing. Made it out of gator skin...amongst other things. Even reinforced the inside chest compartment with stainless steel. in case he ever got shot. I've kept it around all these years. Grandpap was nearly as tall as old Milo here so it fit him just fine. I made the one Sledge is wearing. When we was just kids Jesse, grandpap used to run all over chasing folks away who got near his still." Jesse "And he scared Andrew Harkness's grandpa to death" *Hard Luck held his head in shame* Hard Luck "I'll destroy the still Jesse if it will make everything alright" Jesse *yelling* That's the least yer gonna do after all the trouble you caused around here!"

After noticing what was leaning against the wall, Bo realized he was hanging out in Cooter's 'hood.

Thanks for putting such thought into these great responses folks. Since it's not unusual to see a car running around in modern times that's older, I don't think too much about the show being older when I see a old car or two or three. However when they show scenes in town (especially in the Goeorgia episodes) I do think about the show's age since you never see that many old cars in one place anymore....except a car show of course.

I'm certain that it's catfish. I'm going to agree with waikiki about the champagne part too.

You folks have cool comercials over there Hoss! It's been weeks since I've seen a commercial here that wasn't a negative political ad. The good news is that after the election on Tuesday the Christmas commercials will start and I just love Christmas!!!

Having just turned 50 in April (along with John Schneider) I got a lot of AARP advertisements in the mail. It just seems odd that they would sponser NASCAR but since there's a lot of older NASCAR fans I shouldn't be surprised. NASCAR's been around long enough that a lot of it's original fans are getting older. GO GO JJ!!

Speeding toward Daisy with the speed and fury of a runaway freight train, the largest beast seems focused on her and is unable to concentrate on anything else. Then something forces the monster to lose his focus as Luke lunges toward him with a vengence. The monster alters his path slightly to go around Luke and his face crashes into a large low hanging branch. What happens next shocks all four Dukes and stops them in their tracks. The tree branch decapitates the swamp monster. His head rolls into a puddle as the monster's body falls to the ground. Close behind, the small beast trips over the larger one and falls on top of him. Seeing their opportunity to attack the smaller monster, Bo and Luke jump on him together and start punching him with everything they have. Then, the large headless beast joins the fight, striking Bo in the stomach.

Hmmm. interesting post... but it has left me a little confused.... Is AARP the American Association of Retired People? I'm wondering if it stands for a different organization with the same initials since they don't seem like the type of group that would sponser NASCAR.

Here's a question for you folks. Whenever I watch an old TV show from the late 70s or early 80s I always feel a little nostalgic about television from that era. However, when I watch the Dukes, I don't feel nostalgic at all. Since my love of the Dukes hasn't faded since it originally aired it still feels just as new and exciting as it always did. Of course I'm 50 years old. A lot of you folks here are younger....well....maybe all you folks are younger...LOL Anyway, here's my question. When you watch the Dukes does it feel like you're watching an old show?

Wow...impressive! If possible I'd sure like to hear the story of how WBGL got them.

I wouldn't have known that but those numbers sure sound right to me. Mr. Harkness sure had a pretty good scam going on there. In the RP "Mystery in Hazzard Swamp", there's a Andrew Harkness....no relation to H.H. If I may put an advertisement for it here, it's approaching it's exciting conclusion just in time for Halloween. Check it out.

Upset that he had fired both barrels at the same time and had no more ammo in the gun, Jesse frantically reaches in the chest pocket of his overalls to reload. As he pulls out two more shotgun shells, his nerves get the best of him and he drops them both. To his shock, the monster reconsiders a second attack and chooses to flee the scene. He starts slow and then picks up speed. Jesse feels instant relief but it is short lived. Out of the thick brush to their left, the Duke men are shocked at what appears.....another swamp monster!....not nearly as tall but every bit as menacing looking as the first one. The second monster gives Bo and Jesse a short angry glance and then begins running behind the larger one. Once again the relief felt by Jesse is short lived. As if living a nightmare, Jesse looks ahead at the path the monsters were heading and witnessed a sight that sent chills up his spin. The sight was right in line with the path the monsters were running.....Daisy!

Make sure Cooter checks it out real good before the big jump. You never know if somebody might have tampered with the high performance fuel lines.

If I knew how to post pictures on here I'd post my two Shih-tzu hunting hounds with deer blood all over their faces after their latest kill.
