Well, I've slept on it and I'm still at a loss for words, but I'll try to express my thoughts anyway. I'll probably get a little sentimental, so please excuse the mush. In 1996, I started a little website called the Hazzard County Sheriff's Department. Little did I know it would attract so much attention. It was through that site that I met MaryAnne, ol' Rosco himself - Jimmie Best, my husband, and Brian... in that order. In 1999, MaryAnne, Brian, and I decided to expand our horizons past the HCSD and make a DOH website for every fan or at the very least, a playground for ourselves if nobody else showed up. As Brian said, it became our home and we opened the doors for all the neighbors to come on in. And came they did! Some of the old timers from HazzardNet's infancy are still around, some have moved on, some have found their way back like the Prodigal Son, but each of them left their own little mark on HazzardNet. Looking back, in some respects, it's been a long, hard journey. We've had a lot of ups and downs. But as MaryAnne said, in other respects it's like we just started yesterday. And it does seem like we're just getting started because big things are in store for HazzardNet in 2011. (Yes, we're actually planning things, for once.) I'm proud of all the effort we've put into HazzardNet, but as MaryAnne and Brian will attest, I'm my own worst critic and don't toot my own horn that often. So to hear such praise from someone else is very humbling. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

(Robert. Culpable. Excited? Must be some other Robert Culp fans on here. ROFL!)

Robert (Ha! I bet you thought I was gonna say Henry, dintcha! I already know what the Deputy would follow this up with. Khee!)

Welcome to HazzardNet! Enjoy your stay.

Wow, guys. I'm very humbled at the tribute and I can't put into words just yet how much I'm touched by it, but I'll give it a go later when I've had some time to gather my thoughts. Thank you.

I've never celebrated Chrismtas before, but I'm willing to give it a go!

Aw shucks. LOL. Thanks, Roger, for that tribute. I'd say that building and maintaining HazzardNet has been a lot of work over the years, but can you really call it work when you love doing it? It's a labor of love. We'd have built it even if the rest of you hadn't come to join us, but we're so glad ya did. The three of us wouldn't have met so many wonderful people over the years and honestly, our lives would have been so very different without HazzardNet. So a hearty thank you to all of our members too. I think we should also honor the cast and crew of the show, for without them, there'd be no inspiration for HazzardNet.

I am sooooooo stealing that.. err, I mean, can I "borrow" that to post on the HNet facebook page? Of course, I'll give ya credit!

I seriously thought about posting that last night too, but I figured I'd let someone else have a chance in this thread. LOL. LOVE that song... especially the bit about styrofoam peanuts and the open letter to the rude barista. LOL.

Then, there's... (May contain mature material. LOL.) Don't mess around with CNR!

How funny! I was JUST listening to Gump and was about to come here and post both Gump and Lump. ROFL.

My shpies will be watching!

I saw Spy Hard a while ago, though I'd have to watch it again to refresh my memory. The theme song, however, is very memorable... by Weird Al.

I will be out of town starting 12/20, so before then would work for me. Yes, you read that right. I'm leaving Brian and MaryAnne in charge of HazzardNet for Christmas. That should strike fear into the heart of any reasonable person.

Jimmie mentioned, which I had forgotten, he was in Hot Summer Night with Leslie Nielsen as well.

Would you expect any less from a Coltrane? LOL. They tend to leave destruction in their wakes, if'n ya hadn't noticed. LOL.

Some more on Police Squad. I loved how they always had a guest star in the credits who never showed up in the actual show and how the episode title the narrator said never matched the title credits. LOL. One of my favorite guest stars, Rex Hamilton as Abraham Lincoln. The bullet knocks his hat off and he turns around and fires back. ROFL. Pure comedy genius. Leslie's serious and straight delivery of some of the most hilarious lines is what made it so funny. He had fantastic comedic instincts.

I can't believe Police Squad only lasted 6 episodes too. I watched it when it was originally on. Hilarious. I've always been a huge fan of Leslie Nielsen and the Zucker brothers. Those movies just never get old. You know, Jimmie was in Forbidden Planet with him, though it was as an uncredited crewman. RIP Leslie.

Song

Arrrrrrrrre you kiddin' me? Rosco used to write more speedin' tickets than that in a day. His writin' hand is in purty good shape. LOL.

Stay tuned for Cyber Monday. I'm sure they'll have another deal. Khee!
