Three YeeHaas for HossC 

So, 2020 wasn't such a bad year after all! Thank you so much, Roger, I really wasn't expecting anything like this. The reason I've hung around so long is the company. I think you were the first to befriend me soon after I joined, and through HNet I've made many other friends around the world since then. There have also been some quiet times here over the years, but it's great to see the place buzzing again and still attracting new members.
Sorry for confusing you by posting in English, Roger! I try to write in 'Merican when I can, but you guys use the wrong words for so many things, like hood and trunk when you mean bonnet and boot, and some day you'll learn to put the other "i" in aluminium .

Would be neat if the drivers would go out on snow mobiles or atv's for a charity race.

not many women like that! Mine would be..." I'm not gonna do it...YOU do it!"

Ummm no lol. But she don't mind getting muddy and greasy tearing parts off cars . 

But ..... WHY???

Just FYI, some real places that have played Hazzard had the following populations in 2018 (figures in brackets are for 1980):

14,015 (10,586) - Covington, GA
16,021 (6,567) - Conyers, GA
2,019 (1,284) - Piru, CA

Piru was used in 'Luke's Love Story', 'Officer Daisy Duke' and the 2007 TV movie 'The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning'.

Near the beginning of the 'Reunion!' movie, there's a sign that says:

Hazzard County
pop unknown
BECAUSE THEY WON'T LET
US COUNT THEM

Last I knew I was still in charge of this section so until MM fires me or throws me in the HazzardNet jail I'm going to violate the rules and give credit to a moderator, even though moderators aren't eligible. Hoss has been around this place for well over a decade and has logged in over 5,500 posts. It doesn't matter that none of them made any sense, that's a lot of posts. But it's not the time or posts that make Hoss special. It's the fact that he has the heart of a Duke. The majority of Hoss's posts show you the kind of person he is. Not only does he help people, he goes out of his way to help people. Not only does he go out of his way helping people, he goes out of his way looking for people who he can go out of his way to help. He may not be from the South but he is truly a Sonny Shroyer kind of person who treats everybody with love, respect and dignity and for that we give him our love and respect. We appreciate all you do Hoss. You are truly a cornerstone of the foundation of the greatest website on the internet.....and I'm just kidding about none of your posts making sense. I think I saw one in 2011 and another one in 2015. Oh yea, another thing about Hoss. He has a great sense of humor....um, I mean, humour. CONGRATULATIONS HOSS on being selected the 2020 Fan of the Year!

Happy birthday Monday Boss. And happy birthday to HazzardNet's "Boss JD Hogg"

They'd have my vote for the top spot but then again, in case you haven't noticed, I'm a big fan of the show. I live less than an hour from the National Comedy Museum. It is based in Jamestown NY, home of Lucy from I Love Lucy. I'm going to go there someday and if Boss and Rosco aren't in it I'm going to make a polite suggestion. 

Well remembered, Roger. That's pretty much exactly what Cooter says in 'One Armed Bandits' - I watched it yesterday!

That is awesome!

Yeah. But my admin friends who help me run them got me back in and at the top position again.

Gonna see if there is a stream of it available. If John Schneider's involved it can't be bad.

Looking at IMDb, Christmas Cars seems to divide opinion. There are three reviews there at the moment, two of which give it 10/10 while the other describes it as "an amateurish, cheesy and very cheap production devoid of any significance in acting and directing." I saw Byron Cherry's name on the cover, but he isn't listed on IMDb, so it's good to get confirmation that he's in the movie.

Went junkyarding today. Was looking to get some aluminum rims for my car but those were all gone so I got the last set of steelies for $50. Sucks they had cheap walmart tires on them otherwise I might've just thrown them on the car today but I'll be getting some new tires next weekend. The wife always comes to the junkyard with me and without fail there were a few guys shocked that a woman was there getting parts off a car .
With the money I saved due to the sale at the JY and a gift card I got for Xmas I stopped at Menards and got myself a new toy, Drill and Impact driver kit. Heard a bunch of those impact drivers at the JY while I was busting the lugnuts loose by hand and told myself I'm getting one. 

That's ridiculous! What next?  Bugs Bunny will need a warning or caution, before they put one of his shows on? 

With the New Year holidays, I almost forgot that it was Saturday today!

Anyway, I noticed a small disclaimer at the start of each episode - a message across the bottom of the screen saying "1970s comedy-drama with dialogue and imagery of the time". I don't recall it being there last time they showed Dukes, but if a 10 second message under the preview scene is what it takes to keep Dukes on the air in 2021, I have no problem with that.

Another one I liked in this episode, was when boss was eating all those donuts and Rosco was thinking Boss was going to be mad at him. When he wasn't and he was having to guess why, he, fig. he was mad or sick and then he guessed because Boss lost 20 lbs. and Boss, said, " ...... "  I    may get angry"......lol! THAT has always made me laugh! WHO would be mad if some one guessed you lost 20 lbs.?? 

I couldn't find where your seldom mentioned characters post was Roger, so I just put this here.  Charlie Wooten had just painted double lines on a dirt road and the Dukes crossed the freshly painted double lines in " Pin the Tail On The Dukes."  I can't remember Charlie anywhere else but I'm sure the Dukes knew him from way back just like everybody knows everybody from way back in Hazzard! ( This is one of the things I like best about the show and about Hazzard!....kinda like where I'm from!)   In this episode, I can't remember where I've seen him before, but the guy who played Hector Farley, looks familiar.

Happy New Year to you and all my Hazzard family! Here's hoping we have a better year in '21......even in Hazzard!

Well, I kept to my word about F1 hijacks in 2020, and waited until 2021!

To add to all of his other achievements, Lewis Hamilton received a knighthood in the New Year Honours List. He follows in the footsteps of other F1 drivers Sir Jack Brabham, Sir Stirling Moss and Sir Jackie Stewart.
