    RogerDuke got a reaction from Spike in NASCAR news   
    Now that I'm retired I have time to do some of the things I always wanted to do. In 2021 I'm going to accept the job as the starting right fielder for the Pittsburgh Pirates, like my childhood hero, Roberto Clemente. I'm going to structure my contract so that I have Sundays off so I can drive NASCAR just like the Dukes hero, Cale Yarborough. This is why I wanted to get all my episode reviews done now. Spring training will be here before you know it and I'll be pretty busy after that. I guess I'll be seeing Santino on the track.
  3. Thanks

    Thanks for telling us Hot Rod.
    They have a great facility there and it's always a good time.
    I've met Rosco and Enos there and I'm looking forward to seeing Luke. It's been a long time since I've seen him.

    This story has me smiling.
    For the last 10 years I never thought I'd say...
    "I'm going to buy Waylon's new album"
    "I'm going to buy Waylon's new album"
    (Sorry for repeating it but it's just so fun to say) *smiles*

    I seen something in the newspaper about Waylon's family releasing some of his never before heard music sometime soon. Since my computer skills are bad, maybe somebody here can find it and post a link with more information.
    It sure would be cool to buy Waylon's new album.
    It's been a long time since I've done that!
    Waylon lives!

    Hey everyone. I'm Dani and I'm new here and am a huge fan of the Dukes Of Hazzard. I'm  a country gal and proud of it. I own every single season of the Dukes Of Hazzard and recently began rewatching it from the beginning of the series. My favorite Duke is Bo Duke and I love John Schneider.
    I'm currently working on saving money to buy myself a horse.
    Some of the things I like doing are working with my grandpa out on the farm, horseback riding, reading, writing fan fiction, roleplaying, watching tv and much more.
    I love making new friends so if you'd  like to get to know me better and want to know more don't be afraid to ask.

    I stuffed myself so much on Thanksgiving, my stomach is still reeling from it today . 
    Gonna try and get the Christmas decorations up today. Got a pack of birch branches and an outside lighted garland I'm going to wrap around them and put out the lighted porch tree and decorate our potted pine tree since it grew to about 4 and a half feet tall this year.
    Looks like it's going to be last nice weekend to get outside stuff done as Monday looks like we're going to get the first big snowfall of the season. One forecaster says we could see double digit totals but I think he's blowing it out of proportion. Have a good weekend.

    I'm glad they didn't rely on national stereotypes for the Irish episode!

    It's likely that the leprechaun spelled his name Sean rather than Shaun as it's the usual Irish spelling (I didn't check to see if there were closed captions). As I've posted previously, the police car and police station would have "Garda" on them and not "Police" (it's the shortened form of "An Garda Síochána"). The Irish accents were even worse than 'Wild Mountain Thyme', and it's not like America's short of people with Irish roots!

    Did you notice that the guard talking to Daisy in the first prison scene had a black mustache and helmet at the start, then a brown mustache and no helmet, then he was back to a black mustache and helmet. BTW. The Gardai don't wear helmets - they're a very British thing!

    I'm hearing it as "Slavonian", but either way I'm guessing that the writers were going for a generic fictional communist state for the bad guys to be from. Like "Urbekistan", that begs the question as to why they were so close to the name of a real place. In 1983, Slovenia was still a Yugoslav republic, and didn't gain independence until 1991, but it would've been on maps!

    You are right again. Thanks for the correction. I actually had it right at first but looked at the book for something else and went back to my post and "corrected" it. It's a good thing I don't depend on that book too much because it is loaded with errors. I have caught myself glancing at it more in season 7 than usual though.....only 9 episodes left.

    Thanks for correcting me. I didn't notice his name on the blacksmith's shop. David Hofstede also has it incorrect, listing him as Dieter (with an i) in his Unofficial Companion.

    Go West, Young Dukes.......season 7 
    Boss just inherited half of his great granddaddy's estate, including a deed to the Duke farm dated June 13, 1872 and signed by Thaddeus Hogg and Jeremiah Duke. After going to Capitol City and confirming the deed's authenticity Boss gave the Dukes 24 hours to leave the farm. Jesse found his great great grandma Jenny's diary and drifted back in time to 1872 to Sleepy City, Hazzard's former name. After Thaddeus burned down Jeremiah and Jenny's barn, Jeremiah sent messages for help and his nephews Joe (Bo), Hank (Luke) and niece Dixie (Daisy) showed up. Joe revealed his identity but Hank and Daisy didn't. Hank pretended to be a drifter and Dixie got at job at Thaddeus's saloon. Deeter Davenport, the town blacksmith also wanted to help the Dukes. Thaddeus called in reinforcements too, Frank and Jesse James. The first thing the younger Dukes did was stop the James boys from robbing a stagecoach. The James boys found out that Hank was really a Duke and told Thaddeus and Rufus. Joe and Hank got in a bar fight with Frank and Jesse. Rufus framed and arrested Hank for horse theft but Joe got away. Jeremiah signed the farm away to get Hank out of jail but he broke out with Dixie's help before Thaddeus could get back to free him. The James boys robbed Thaddeus's safe and took him and Rufus hostage and it was hot pursuit time. Joe, Hank and Dixie caught the James gang and freed their hostages. Thaddeus was so grateful that he signed the farm back to Jeremiah and Jenny. Fade ahead to Hazzard County. The 4 Dukes and Cooter are at the farm celebrating the words in Jenny's diary. She left a clue as to the whereabouts of the revised deed and the Dukes figured out it was Boot Hill cemetery and went there and unburied it. 
    -- What a fun episode.....a true classic that every Duke fan cherishes. 
    -- My only disappointment is that Enos wasn't on it.

    I see you also copied David's spelling of Thaddeus. I know he wrote his book before the DVDs for the later seasons were released, but if you look at the sign on the Golden Palace Saloon, it's clearly Thadius B Hogg.

    Cooter's relative was actually called Jeeter. It's a little hard to hear, but the closed captions and the sign at the blacksmith's both have that spelling.

    There's a saying in economics, the more you have of something, the less it's worth. I think you are on to something Spike. We get lectured so much we've stopped taking the warnings seriously because there are so many of them that they have lost their worth. Adults are no different than kids. If you yell at your kids constantly they stop taking you seriously. If you rarely yell, they really listen when you do.

    I have the silver version of that matchbox Trans Am. I have two of those Dixie Challengers, one I had as a kid and played the heck out of it and one I bought at a garage sale a few years ago that's in really good condition. 
    If any of you guys wonder what a General Lee monster truck would look like Hot Wheels has an orange '69 Charger monster truck out and all it needs is a few stickers or steady artist hand to transform it into the General Lee.

    Here are three videos from a different diecast restorer. This time they're all Dukes vehicles. For some reason he calls Cooter "Skeeter" in the first video, but gets it right after that. First up is Boss' Caddy:
