or that Boss Hogg has other intentions and the raceway is just a cover-up.

Well...we know why he wants the farm...and we know that so long as he has them bigwigs convinced it's fer the best interest of Hazzard, it'll happen. Seems t me we gotta prove that either it ain't for the best interest at all...

*smiles softly thinking about the last time they were there*

For the record... Since this was initially about why Adam West will be at Dukesfest...this is what John said: "My favorite show as a youngster was... You guessed it... Batman! POW! I can only assume that if that was John Schneider's favorite show as a kid that it had to be Bo Duke's favorite show too! It is very important to remember who the Dukes are inside and not just their public image..." And you know what? I think he's right. So often in role plays and round robins and things we who write use our imaginations to try our best to make the characters of Dukes as real as we can to the readers and to ourselves. The fact that we do this is not because we simply have nothing better to do, it's that, for me at least, we want them to be more than just an image on screen. We want to feel...and i think most of us on here do...that we know them and that, more than characters on tv, they are symbolic of what could still happen. That there are still "good ol' boys"...that there are still families that believe in supporting one another...that the word "family" doesn't necessarily mean mom, dad, brother sister...it can be uncle with cousins...or even friends brought together by a common bond (like us here on hnet)... It is this type of inside knowledge that endears us to them so much. John once said that he can always tell who knew him from Dukes and who knew him from Smallville because strangers felt they could go to Bo Duke and give him a hug whereas Jonathan Kent they did not. All that to say, for my two cents worth, for me, Dukes is more than being about an awesome car, two gorgeous guys and a good deed thrown into every show. It's about a bigger picture... a simpler time...a genuiness and, as proved by its longevity, a realness to the characters that the American (and non-American) population misses from tv today. If Batman is part of what made Bo Duke who he was and helped make him real to us, I say bring him on...

*sighs softly* Been a while since you and me camped here...aint it?

*sighs* Shoulda brought the guitars...
