You go JESSI DUKE! Why can't Hollywood producers leave our great TV shows alone? Don't they have any creativity. In my opinion, they have minds and should put them to good use. How dare they change KITT's name to the Knight Industries Three Thousand. In the words of Daisy, I am mad enough to spit. Thank you bwgath for the pictures, and for being so considerate about the whole issue. But, still, how dare they! That doesn't even look like KITT! Ooooooooooo! I could just spit, I am so upset! My blood pressure is on the rise, and would not be surprised to find that it will remain that way for a week!!! Another opinion, Michael should NOT head the Foundation. Isn't it enough that in the first movie they killed Devon? Now they pretty much killed KITT by installing a new voice and vehicle! I have said it once and I will say it again, How dare they! And I do not know about y'all, but I certainly will not be watching that series. I know one person, come Febuary, who will NOT be happy. Not to get all revved up, but I could just spit! General Grant

Said perfectly Laura Duke! I love the way you stated everything. I don't think that even Jesse could have done that better! You said a couple of things that I never thougt of, about Jesse not allowing swearing and such. I totally agree with you about boycotting. I believe in resolving things peacefully and not resorting to violence. So, I think that boycotting an event that you love so dearly, like Dukefest, is a very noble thing for a person to do. That is absolutely NOT a sign of immaturity. So, to all of you who would boycott Dukefest if the new cast/crew came on... I say, that if it is truly what you believe in, and that is your principles that you are backing up, then I would say good for you. I know that would be so hard to pass up going to Dukefest, but if you believed that it would really show what us Dukes are all about it is a very noble gesture. But, then again, I also think that you shouldn't ruin a great time! For Example: Rosa Parks boycotted the bus system. She was standing firm on her priciples, does that mean that she was just immature. Not at all. I think that was a great thing for her to do. (Sorry Laura Duke, but I had to borrow your idea there!) But, I would like to thank the lot of you who actually care about people, and their principles and beliefs. I really do appreciate that kind of attitude. It makes everything run a whole lot smoother! I also understand that this is a hypothetical. Duke fans, myself included, have a tendency to speak on a question, feeling what they would if it were to actually happen. So, I am sorry TimDuke, that this is getting so out of proportion! But, I am sure you know how it is with us Duke fans! Anyway, I hope that you keep up the good work, Laura Duke. I really enjoyed what you posted below, and would like to thank you for getting your point(s) across in such a great, positive way. General Grant

Oh, Joy! I hope that you aren't gettin' too overtired. Congrats on the little one commin'! General Grant

Hey Y'all! I am sure that the fans would want nothing less than the car, crew, and actors from the series. Now, y'all, don't get me wrong here, but the movie actors get their time to shine almost every day. Dukefest should be the time for the series to shine! I agree about what you are sayin' about Byron and Christopher being able to come. I don't think we should ban the movie actors from coming, but I think that is not really their place to come. I don't know, I think that if they were to come, we should welcome them, but in the meantime, we should stand for what we believe in, and I believe in the series! I really think that the movie took out all moral that the Dukes had in it, and it would be a shame for everyone to think that the movie is a very fair representation of the series. Hope y'all don't get all upset over any of this! I'll catch y'all later General Grant

Hey Y'all! I am really glad that you decided to stick around, and didn't get scarred off! LoriDavenport! I certainly did not scare the last person off! Who would be scarred of little ol' me?! The combonation of Lori, Roger, and Laura is enough to scare even the bravest person off! That is so cool that you named your dog Cooter! Well, chubcityracing, you've lasted the welcome reception, if you don't get scarred off by them, you should enjoy your time on the site! I am sure you will meet some great people and fellow Duke fans. I sure did! Catch y'all later! General Grant Thank you again for stickin' around. I hope you enjoy your stay. Hopefully your buddies won't give you the business too much for bein' a Duke fan!!!!

Hey Y'all! Is Byron really coming, I heard that somewhere else on the site. I am really happy about that. I think that Byron, and Christopher, both deserve it. I think we, as Dukes fans, owe them that much. I really felt bad for them because they came on, helped out the show, not to mention Bo and Luke, and were then cast out and treated like outsiders. In my book, they are as much a part of the Duke family as Bo and Luke, and Tom and John. So, I think that is a really great thing that Byron got invited and is coming. Good for Him! I think that we should welcome them with open minds, and I for one believe that Byron seems like a great person, and that we should show what we are made of, by welcoming him to Hazzard! So far, in books and such, I have really heard them cut down for coming onto the Dukes, but on the site, for the most part y'all showed the compassion and loyalty to the other half of the family that make us Dukes who we are. Thank you for that! As for the newer actors, I did say earlier on that they should pay their own way, but Laura Duke also wrote somethings that made me think that maybe we should welcome them too if they want to be there. Afterall, that is what the Dukes would do. Give 'em compassion, welcome them, and throw in a little common sense, and I think that everyone will know where we stand. I really think that if we welcome them but let them know that we support the series and not the junk they put on TV with the Dukes name on it they will get the message. But, the key is that we hold the responsibility to do it in a loving manner, and not go startin' a war between the fans of the series and the fans of the movie! Hope I didn't upset anyone. General Grant

Thanks for the picture MaryAnne! That is a great looking car! I have said it before, and I will say it yet again... I wish I had a car like that! It is even black! If I was driving down the road and saw that I'd probably end up in a snowbank because I would be wishing that was me behind the wheel of it! What a great car! If you don't mind my askin', how is it on gas, and is it a comfortable ride? I absolutely love that picture, it is a great car. I am sure you are happy to drive that around!!!! How many people stare at that car?! General Grant

Hey Y'all! Oh, was that Santa Bo? I thought that was Luke! But, I've been known to mess up now and again. In the words of Bo, Okay, so I 'aint perfect, just pretty! I agree with Laura about Roger and the eggnog. We'll have to ask everyone at the meeting to watch him very closely! You know how he gets on that stuff! I like frosted mugs, but I would not order a beer! I am partial to ice cold juice! Catch y'all soon! General Grant

Now Roger and Lori, don't go scarrin' chubcityracing off like you did the last person who introduced themself! Geesh! Anyway, let me give you a warm welcome.... to Hazzard County. You sure did find all of the Dukes nuts on this site! That is exactly how I found the site, I just stumbled on the site. Luckily, Roger an Lori didn't scare me off like they did the last tourist! I hope you enjoy your stay and have a nice long visit! If you have any questions, we would all be more than happy to help you out. Just be aware when you are posting and looking around the site, if you see RogerDuke's name on a post, you know there's trouble! Esspecially if there is a LoriDavenport and Laura Duke in the same post! Khee! I am just kidding! Feel free to make yourself at home! Again, Welcome... to Hazzard County! I'll catch y'all later! General Grant

Hey Y'all! I agree with what you are sayin' 'bout not going to the event because you don't like the movie, but, I also understand that everyone shows their displeasure in a different way. How ever, I did't like the movie at all. I think the producers picked up on all of the wrong things in the making of that film. I didn't see any of the moral lessons, or qualities that make the Dukes series a real winner. Although some will disagree, that is my opinion that yes, the action and chemistry of characters made the show fun, but the lessons involved made it a winner. Not just by Hollywood's criteria. I think that is why a lot of people really could understand the show. For one hour every week, there was someone to show compassion, forgiveness, friendship, and teach you a very valuable lesson. You just don't find that on TV anymore. I am very thankful for coming across the Dukes series! With all of that said, I don't think we should ban the actors if they want to come to Dukefest and I don't think y'all should ruin a good time by not going. But, I also think we should make it known to them that the movie is not what we are supporting, it is the series. Hope no one got upset by anything I said, if they did, I am really sorry. I just wanted to voice my opinion, but if it upset anyone, I would be more than happy to talk about it! That is not what I would ever want to do, is upset a fellow cousin! General Grant

Hey y'all! Movies based on a series are almost never as good as the actual series. Must be because there are no ideas left and the producers just don't do their homework about the series. They always seem to pick up on the wrong things. Changing gears here, but has anyone seen the latest Dukes movie? I saw it at the store the other day, and judging by the pictures and plot, I don't think I will like it. Anyone seen it, and what did you think? General Grant

I still say that it is Waylon's voice! I hope that I didn't scare Denver C. away, he agreed with me! Anyway, I am not sure how we could find out for sure. Maybe we should go on John, Tom, and Catherine's websites and demand that they tell us! That would probably be about the weirdest question they ever got! General Grant

Hey Lori! I don't think that is so crazy! Our neighbors probably think I am crazy. When it snows or is icy in the driveway, I take ol' Suzie (our four-wheeler) out and do loops, turns, spins, etc. while yellin' Yeeehaw! Our neighbors must think we are nuts. I would just love to see their facial expressions, because this is a yearly event! Our neighbors must wonder what is going on this year, because Suzie is gettin' worked on, so I haven't been able to take her out this year! Dang! That is almost depressing!!!!!! Hopefully she'll be up and kickin' soon! General Grant

Another brilliant idea from Roger! That sounds good to me! I will certainly try to be there! That sounds like a great time. Roger, if you bring the eggnog, I'll get some frosted mugs! Y'all, I am sure that Roger will be drinkin' eggnog while he is at the Christmas party! Anyway, for the sake of making this short, I am going to try to be there, hopefully it won't turn out like the last meetin' where I couldn't come! General Grant Hope to catch y'all at the party!

Okay, thanks North of Border1. It was really interesting seeing what he looks like now, he don't look anything like Coy. It is really strange how people change over the years! Thank you again for the info. General Grant

Hey y'all! LoriDavenport, do you mean to tell me that ol' boy is your car?! WOW! That is what I refer to as a looker! Was Roger indeed throwin' back the buttermilks last night?! Well, Well, caught in the act! Khee! I got 'em now! Khee! I hope he didn't scare any of the others out of the meeting on Saturday, that I missed. I was upset about that all week, still am. Enos was chasin' me and I drove into a snowbank! No, I'm just kidding. But, the next meeting I really hope to be a part of. How did that go, anyway? General Grant I love the car in the picture!

Hey y'all! Why can't the TV producers ever say anything that is good news, so people can stop calling me "Stormin' Norman!" Thank you TimDuke! I also smell LOSER, and I am really upset about this! It is an outrage! I say that William Daniels should be the one and only voice for KITT, and that is it! I also don't think that David Hasslehoff should be the head of the Foundation for Law and Government. I mean, if they were going to kill Devon off, they should just leave it at that, instead of insisting upon ruining it more! I still can't believe that they are going to ruin a great series!! I wish I were ol' Rosco right now, so I could cuff 'em and stuff 'em and then tell them to hush! Khee! Khee! I'm gone~ Catch y'all later! General Grant

Hey y'all! Not to sound like the balladeer, but I think everyone is tryin' to understand everyone else, and no one understands what anyone is sayin'. That is usually what will happen when you get a bunch of Hazzardites together! That is a good idea to ask John. If y'all get to Dukefest, or get any autographes, I would love to hear about it! General Grant

Hey Julieduke! If you do not mind my asking, how did you find out all that about your family? I would really like to get into that and find pictures, letters, stories, or history on my family. I pretty much have names and dates on my mom's side, but don't even know where to begin on my dad's side. I was wonderin' if you had to go through all of that, or if it was more, from memory. That is pretty cool about Julie Ann and Julianna. That must be almost scarrey to have a picture of someone else that looks almost just like you. That is really cool. What year is that picture from? I really enjoy looking at old pictures and objects! That is really cool that you did all that! Good luck if you decide to pursue it and I hope you find all you want to know! General Grant

Hey Julieduke! When you say that Knight Rider will return, do you mean that they are making a new series or movie? If they are and are switching vehicles.... That is an outrage! I saw what they did in the last Knight Rider movie. They killed Devon and KITT!!!!!! KITTs personality and look made the show. And Devon was great. I don't know, I am probably going to stand alone on this one, but my opinion is that the series ended, and they will never be able to duplicate it, so they shouldn't try, they should just give us the series and let us have happy thoughts on that! What's your opinion, y'all? General Grant

Hey y'all! I am really glad that you checked in! Thanks morgan for answering the question about the signature! That was really helpful, as you can probably tell, I am not too bright when it comes to computers! General Grant I hope someone can answer my other question!

Hey y'all! First off, LoriDavenport.. you changed your picture! I like it! I know, you get Laura Duke and RogerDuke in the Boars Nest, put a couple of buttermilks and a half gallon of egg nog infront of them, and you're lookin' for trouble! Khee!! Don't worry, LoriDavenport, I am sure one of these days one of us will catch you in the Boars Nest throwin' back a few buttermilks! I really hope we didn't scare Christine off! I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Laura Duke single handedly scared her off!!! And Roger probably helped to scare a few more off!! Catch y'all soon General Grant

I hear ya, Garrett Duke! I also taped a few episodes if I couldn't watch it! Did they make a Walker movie?! If they did, I never knew about it. News travels slow here, I guess! Does anyone know how many seasons it lasted? I think it is four, but I am not sure. I really like the chemistry between Walker and Trivette, and how they play off of each other. But, I'd have to say that Trivette is my favorite on there. I sometimes feel like him, tryin' hard, but fallin' short, but havin' fun doin' so! Catch y'all later! General Grant

Hey Roger! That's good! I think you must be more "Duke like" I must be more like ol' Rosco! Trippin' over a snowbank, I still laugh about that! You must really like the Dukes of Hazzard, if you say "Hang on cuz!" Which cousin was it, Bo, Luke, Daisy, or were you thinkin' more along the lines of cousin Uncle Jesse?! I hope you showed that car that pulled out infront of you some manners! You probably sped up and told them to pull it over and then gave them the Rosco! I can just see it!! Everytime I see someone pull out infront of me or someone else now I will probably think of you sayin' "Hold on Cuz!" General Grant

Hey Y'all! I sure missed a lot! I know what you mean about horses! I would love to ride mine to get around. But it takes a half hour to get anywhere driving, and I think if I actually made my horses work they'd buck me off, leave me in the middle of no where and high-tail it on back to the barn! I'll take payin' for gas as opposed to payin' the hospital bill! Khee! Khee! MaryAnne... you have a firebird,too?! I said it several times and I'll say it again, I wish I had a firebird! Any reason behind namin' them Maverick and Sassy? General Grant
