Hey, that's cool, y'all! Garrett Duke- That was funny to hear about the doggy sweaters and coats. I can picture Rosco putting one of those on Flash! How does Lilly like wearing the sweaters? Lizzy Jackson-Davenport- It sounds like you have two very nice dogs! Even if you are only petsitting the one! Denver C.- Actually I got the idea from you about this thread! Over in another thread you started talking about your cat, and That is how I got the idea about the thread, so really, you get the credit there! We also live out in the middle of nowhere, but I love it! We have a ton of cats, I only listed my "babies" though! Roger- I hope Flash sticks around! Have you ever tried playing with it? I don't know if it works on all cats, but we had a real fiesty MEAN cat and the way I tamed it to actually like humans was by playing. It turned out to be a very sweet cat. But, I'd sit on the floor (or ground!!) and have a piece of string and play with him every day. Each day I'd shorten the string until it got to the point where I'd have him running across my legs, and eventually he let me pet him. But don't try petting 'em until they are good and ready. I did that a couple of times and it scared the poor cat to death! It also set back the "training" a couple weeks!! Did that make any sense?? Anyway, I hope that Flash will stick around! It must like you if he/she came back!! Thanks Y'all for chiming in! I really enjoy hearing about your "Velvet Ears"!! Again, if you know how and if it is okay with the moderators, I'd love to see pictures of you little pals!! General Grant

Hey Y'all! Rosco always treats Flash like Family, afterall, when he wrote his will he gave everything to Flash except of course those things his mamma would want! Anyway, do you have any animals that you feel are just like family? Okay, I'll start... I have a Big Ol' Paint Quarter Horse, Frankie; a miniature, Boomer; a white cat, Ratty; another white cat, Adrian; and my favorite, a black cat KITT. Unfortunately they all live out in the barn. I'd keep them in the house if I could, though! The cats I mean, not the horses! I treat KITT like a king because he deserves it! Anyway, hope y'all don't think I am totally crazy! I get that look when Rosco and Flash come onscreen because it reminds my family of me and KITT. But I like to think KITT is a lot smarter, a lot more cute, and I don't think I act like Rosco... I hope. No offense to Flash or Rosco though, KHEE! KHEE! Anyway, do any of you have your own little Velvet Ears? Oh, and if they hit a milestone, please share. For Example... if you gave them their first doggy num-num today, or if they took their first steps, anything, I'd be just delighted to celebrate that mile stone!! Or, if you can post pictures (providing the Moderators don't have a problem with it) of your little Velvet Ears! I'd be absolutely delighted! General Grant

Maybe one day you both will get to meet at least one of them! Maybe if we ask nice enough?? they'll come?? I feel just awful for both of you! Hey North- is Byron Cherry a nice person if real life? Is he from Canada? Anyway, I hope that someone can help you out, dukefan, and I would like it even better if you both got to meet at least one of the cast! General Grant

Garrett Duke- Oh, I didn't know that you have two IDs. I guess that makes sense now why on some posts people call you Kristy!! Thanks, I was really wondering about why people called you Kristy, I guess now I know!! Have you watched the "Christy" series? If you have, what do you think about it? Denver C.- Oh, thank you for telling me what a manx is!! I am glad I am not the only person who didn't know that. I've never heard of a manx, but then I don't read a whole lot about cat breeds and such. KITT is a barn cat, I'm not sure if he is specific breed, but he's all black, and just the sweetest cat you'd ever want to meet (although I'm sure you beg to differ!) I always call him King KITT because I treat him like a king and he knows he deserves all his stuff. I have an old table with a cat cage and a blanked inside that, I call it the KITT Table and we have a wagon we call the KITTMobile. He's the only cat that has his own dish and the "$25 for 12 pounds of food" stuff. Oh well, I get lauged at and all and KITT gets called spoiled, but he deserves all his stuff!! BoJames- very interesting! So, let me get this right (for once!) You made up Bo's middle name, right? Well, it is very clever, and it does flow nicely! DaisyMae- I never caught that Jesse said Daisy's middle name. That is interesting! Do you and BoJames role play a lot? It sounds like fun. You really are good at staying in character! MaryAnne- I've read a couple stories with MaryAnne in it, but never put two and two together (at least not to get four!!) That is clever. How did you come up with that name for the character? Noth_of_Border1- that sounds cool! I wish I thought of clever stuff like that. I always figured you put the 1 in there purposely!! Lori- I remember you saying that once, and I was confused for a week! I thought you were talking about yourself, when in reality you were talking about your character (that is before I realized about the Role Playing and Fan Fiction!!) How did you come up with the name Lori for your character? Jamanda- that is clever, too! If your parents do that, do you know which one of you they are trying to call? B.L. Davenport- that is cool that you could carry over your real life experince (being called B.L. in real life) and put a Dukes (or Davenport) spin on it. Very Clever! Thank You all, this is really interesting! General Grant

Very cool, everyone! Denver C.- That is so cool that you have a little pal to watch the Dukes with you! Okay, I have a question for you that will probably make me look like a fool (if y'all didn't already think that!) is a manx a breed of dog?? Anyway, I have a cat (named KITT) but he's an outdoor "barn" cat. I wish I could bring him in to watch an episode of the Dukes with me! Capt_Redneck- It sounds like you really have some great memories with your dad there! I'm sure that you won't ever forget that day, it sounds really special. Roger- Thank you for the compliment about starting the thread! I always enjoy a good compliment!! Anyway, I think that is a perfectly grand idea about your username! It makes perfect sense to me! Hey... who wouldn't want to be a Duke?! Well, your real last name might not be Duke, but you are a Duke at heart, and you really are a lot like Uncle Jesse. I can't think of a better hero to have! i1976- Don't feel clumsy! You, too, have a wonderful username! You might feel like you don't have a cool username, but I think it is a fine name! Besides, it isn't about the names around here, it is about the people! I'm glad that you joined in on this discussion, and it is great having all of the Dukes fans on this website. Thank You for sharing, it was interesting!! Julieduke- That was nice to hear about your brother's cat! What breed is it? Very good, about the username. That, also makes a lot of sense. Thank You everyone for sharing! I hope a couple more people join in. This is really interesting! General Grant

Hey Y'all! Just curious here, and thought I would ask everyone this question: What is the reasoning behind the usernames y'all picked? I'll go first... General Lee was the General for the confederate army in the Civil War, General Grant (my username) was the General for the Union Army in the Civil War. Well, the Dukes are from the south, I'm from the north. It seemed fitting since thier car was the General Lee, to have my username as General Grant. Did that make any sense?! Anyway, it would be interesting to hear about how everyone else got their usenames. General Grant

That is so sad, dukefan! Never even having the chance to see a Dukefest... I know how you feel, though. I have never been to a Dukefest, and I am not sure if I ever will. But, I hope that someone can help you out. Although, nothing beats the feeling of seeing one of the characters in person. I've only ever met Cooter (last month, I think!!) and I still have a big ol' grin on my face from that! Every time I watch the Dukes and Ben Jones' name comes on the credits, I grin because I remember meeting him. He is such a great person to talk to. Anyway, I really hope that some one can send you a tape of Dukefest! General Grant

WOW! That is cool! Does that actuall play the tune to "Dixie"? That is such a great idea!! Do you ever get strange looks from the neighbors with that??! 9 o'clock isn't early for bed!! I go to bed at 9! That is because I have to get up early to do the barn chores! Sorry, I started straying off the subject... I really think that the mower is a cool Idea! Gee, I wish I had something like that to ride around on! That is brilliant!! General Grant

Happy Birthday MaryAnne! It appears that you certainly have a lot of people who appreciate what you do around here! I hope that you enjoy your special day, and find some time to relax! You have fun and enjoy yourself today! General Grant

I agree with Roger, this is creative genius. Don't be so hard on yourself, DaisyMae, This really is something only a genius would think of!! Anyway, if I can ever figure out how to do it, count me in! General Grant

Brilliant Idea, Daisy Mae! But I have a question... how can you watch the show and chat? You see, The computer is in one room, and the TV is in another? (I am horrible at figuring this technology stuff out!) Anyway, it does sound like fun! General Grant

Happy Birthday Peggy and Lulu! I hope that your day is simply splendid! General Grant

Hey Y'all! I've never seen (or heard) of Viper. Oh, Brian, I disagree about any show about cars is better than any show without a car... horses are good, too! I'd rather watch a show about a horse than the new Knight Rider... even if it does have a car! Sorry, I'll stop it now! Anyway, I hope that you all enjoy Knight Rider when it airs, I really mean that! Before I go, though, I agree with dukefan about the real KITT being less likely to be "hacked" and the show being boring and all. This new kitt had (as dukefan said) nothing for capabilities! Oh, well. It is what it is, I guess, but I still don't like it! General Grant

Ahhh! I am early for once! Happy Birthday John and Bo! Hope it is a good one! General Grant

Oh, thank you Emy-Rae! That was so nice of you to say about me, and everyone else you mentioned! Thank you to everyone, this post really has a way of Brightening my Day! General Grant

Oh, Laura, I do not think that if I looked in the mirror I'd see Boss Hogg. But, if I held a mirror up to you.... then maybe! Or would you be Rosco?? I aint stole nothing from you... you little marshmallow! I aint blamin' you and I certainly aint causin' problems! I think you, Laura, are the Boss Hogg by trying to snooker Emy-Rae into giving you another bag of candies! You, a Duke... That is just too funny!! Ha! Ha! Ha!.... I can see Roger as a Duke, but you... Okay, sorry, I'll stop now. That aint no chocolate smear on my face you see... I fell face first in the mud trying to run away from you before you took away my bag of candy! Someone Help, PLEASE! I fear that Laura and Roger are going to take away my candy! Bye Rosco... I mean Laura! General Grant Thanks, Roger for gettin' Laura started on this... Khee! That really was a good one, though!

Happy Easter back at you, Julie, and everyone else here at HazzardNet!! Oh, and Laura (and Roger) I feel like the Dukes bein' framed by Boss an' Rosco... so I have one question for y'all and that is this: Which one of you is Boss and which one of you is Rosco??!! Oh, Laura, can't you just be happy with one bag of candy instead of trying to get poor sweet Emy-Rae to give you two bags! Don't fall for Laura's act, Emy-Rae!! General Grant

Hey Y'all! Everyone had very good opinions, and it is refreshing to see a group of people who can talk about politics and such and be very friendly while doing so. Thank you everyone for that! Upon seeing the title of the thread, I was a little leary of opening it because usually people get a little hostile over their beliefs. Thank you everyone, you have proved (yet again) how great of a site this is. I truly appreciate that everyone was open to the opinions of everyone else and were generally accepting of new Ideas. Or at least didn't cut people down because of their thoughts and beliefs. Again... thank you!! I'm not going to comment on this, though. Some of you brought up some great thoughts, and I think it would be better if I just take in what everyone has to say. Some of you did sway my thoughts a little... any of you ever think of becoming a lawyer?! Anyway, I 'm just writing to say thank-you for keeping it (as meadowmufn said in the earlier posts) civil! You all have great thoughts on the topic. But I do think we all owe the soldiers, both past and present, a huge Thank You! Okay, sorry for the stray off of the topic. Please, continue on. General Grant

Thank you to everyone who posted a reply to this thread! I really appreciate it!! And I am so glad to hear that everyone had a nice Easter!! Now, Roger, You know I wouldn't take your chocolates... right? You probably hid them chocolates out in the barn so no one else could have any, and Maudine stole them! Serves you right for hiding them on all of us!! Sorry Uncle Jesse... I shouldn't go sayin' you'd hide them chocolates on us-- you wouldn't think of it, now would you?! I don't know why when there's trouble 'round here I am always the one to get the suspicious looks?? Anyway, it was nice to hear about your Easter, y'all! I enjoyed reading the posts! General Grant (smirks at Roger and pops a coconut filled chocolate in mouth) Mmmm! This is the best chocolate I've ever had!!

Thanks, Emy-Rae!! That was nice of you to give us all a bag of chocolates!! YUM! Anyway, that was cool that you got a little get-together. We just did it with the immediate family. We didn't go all out this year. That was nice just to spend the time with the family! Thanks for sharing, Garrett!! Hopefully you all had a nice time! General Grant

Welcome... to Hazzard County!! I hope that you have an enjoyable stay, and find a couple new friends. If you need help with anything, don't hesitate to ask!! Y'all just have fun now, ya hear?! Again, welcome and enjoy your stay! General Grant

Happy Easter Y'all! Hope it was special, and you all had fun. Unfortunatly, I don't think there is a very Easter-like Dukes episode. Oh, well! Anyway, I just wanted to wish my fellow Hazzardite citizens a Happy Easter. Oh, and if you all have any stories about things that happened this Easter, or on past Easters, it would be great to hear them! Or if you and your family have any traditions you like, I always enjoy reading about them. I am always amazed at how one holiday is celebrated in so many unique ways. A lot of people have such neat customs, I just love hearing about!! Anyway, Happy Easter! May you and your family have a truly marvelous day! General Grant

I was kind of wondering that myself!! Anyway, I was glad to hear that you are feeling better, Rosco! Khee! Hope you keep improving, and don't go using that ladder for a while! General Grant

We finally found the cord for the Camera, so if you want pictures, I can post them, if it is okay with the moderators, and someone tells me how! If you still want, Brian, I could write something up, also. Hopefully I am not too late! General Grant

Thank You, countrygirl, for posting that! It is always cool to see the Dukes of Hazzard Mentioned! I was thinking about starting a thread about "You might be a Dukeaholoic if..." And I think that it is fair to say all three of you fit in that category! Unfortunaltely I don't own any pictures or anything! My sister has a cast picture, and a General Lee picture and shirt signed by Cooter, and all 7 seasons, though. So, that is probably as close to owning any Dukes merchandise that I'll be for a while! Nice, JESSI! I laughed at your story! One time I saw my grandpa sweeping the road in front of his house... I guess he didn't want the road dirty! There's nothing weird about that, is there?! Anyway, nice story! I laughed! Okay, I think that I am getting off topic here... Sorry! General Grant
