  1. I always wanted there to be a General Grant, navy paint job, American flag on the top, 02 on the side (or a historically significant number). I think many years ago I'd seen something similar to that. A yin to the Lee's yang, so to speak.

  2. I had written this many years ago in response to a fan fiction challenge involving death. I never finished the story or published any of it, but I thought this section of it would be appropriate to share now. It originally included Taps and a 3 volley salute, led by Sheriff Little, but I thought that part of it would be too sad. Maybe someday I'll publish the whole thing. But for now...

    The Funeral of Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane

    I can't believe it. Someone took whole verbatim paragraphs from this piece I wrote, stuck it into another story "In Memory of Rosco P. Coltrane" and tried to pass it all off as their own on FanFiction.net. I'm pretty peeved. I understand wanting to do a tribute to James Best, but it should be in their own words.

  3. Well, apparently, the database crashed sometime after I posted this and I didn't notice it until today. I hope the forums weren't down for long. At any rate, I'm going to have to reschedule the upgrade as I spent a few hours just trying to the forums working again. Not exactly how I wanted to spend my Saturday. LOL.

  4. I may attempt to upgrade the forums to the 4.0+ version this weekend. If it doesn't work, I'll roll it back to the current version. So, if by Sunday, things haven't changed, you'll know it went as well as Rosco trying to perform the same jump the Duke boys did. ;)

  5. One of the little projects I'm working on for the new forums is a Dukes of Hazzard Anniversary calendar that will display notable events in the Dukes history, like debuts of certain episodes, birthdays of the cast & crew, etc. If any of you have ideas pertaining to this project, feel free to post about them here.

    I have lots of fun stuff in the works and this is just one of them!

  6. Most of the problems with sigs had to do with accounts that had images. I think most of the regulars came through unscathed, but I know there are some accounts with sig problems. I think most avatars came through ok too. There are a few little quirks I'm finding here and there and fixing them as I go along. If any of you find any issues, let me know in this thread.

    One new cool feature is that you can see a notice on the chat tab in the forum navigation bar that shows how many people are in the chatroom. Pretty neat. Hopefully that wil get people using it more. If we get to the point where we regularly have more than 5 people wanting to use it, I'll upgrade to a larger room.
