  1. Strictly speaking, that wasn't a CB handle. It was Rosco's "military code" to be used on the field telephones he'd bought at the army surplus in 'Swamp Molly'. Enos was Blue Fox. Also in Rosco's code, Luke was Tweedledum and Bo was Tweedledee.
  2. I had planned to watch the qualifying yesterday as they were using the new group qualifying format for the first time. Then I completely forgot . Sunday's race is the "The Profit on CNBC 500, Presented by Small Business Fueling America" from the Phoenix International Raceway in Avondale, AZ. Brad Keselowski lines up on pole, with Justin Allgaier qualifying bringing up the rear, despite hitting a wall during qualifying. An article on NASCAR.com points out that the top three drivers are from teams with IndyCar connections, so the teams have some experience with knockout qualifying. 1 Brad Keselowski 2 Joey Logano 3 Jamie McMurray 4 Jimmie Johnson 5 Dale Earnhardt Jr 6 Greg Biffle 7 Kyle Busch 8 Kyle Larson 9 Aric Almirola 10 Kurt Busch 11 Kasey Kahne 12 Denny Hamlin 13 Kevin Harvick 14 Clint Bowyer 15 Ryan Newman 16 Brian Vickers 17 Jeff Gordon 18 Casey Mears 19 Matt Kenseth 20 Tony Stewart 21 Ricky Stenhouse Jr 22 Paul Menard 23 Carl Edwards 24 Austin Dillon 25 AJ Allmendinger 26 Michael McDowell 27 Martin Truex Jr 28 David Gilliland 29 Marcos Ambrose 30 David Ragan 31 Cole Whitt 32 Brian Scott 33 Danica Patrick 34 Ryan Truex 35 Alex Bowman 36 Parker Kligerman 37 Blake Koch 38 Joe Nemechek 39 Reed Sorenson 40 Travis Kvapil 41 Michael Annett 42 Morgan Shepherd 43 Justin Allgaier Landon Cassill, Josh Wise and Dave Blaney failed to qualify. Tomorrow's (Sunday's) race is at 03:00 PM ET, live on FOX.
  3. Last year, Jeff Gordon did a test drive prank for a Pepsi MAX commercial (see Garrett's post here). Some people called the prank fake, so this year Jeff agreed to help prank one of those people: a journalist from Jalopnik.
  4. coyote (I seem to remember having to watch a movie called 'Coyote Ugly' many years ago) Surely it's times like that when the moonshine comes in handy - you can go home with a supermodel every night .
  5. The subtitles say "I'll pound her down.", and that's what it sounds like to me. For this one the subtitles say "We're going to need directions...if I can work on my instrument in here.", but I think your version is nearer. I'll try listening to it again in the morning.
  6. I've just looked at my screengrab again. There's no way that could have been the official top five as they've listed six names .
  7. Thanks for the race review, Garrett. Here's the last lap summary from the lap-by-lap guide that made me think Stenhouse had got fifth (and Gordon third). I guess they took the result from just before the final flag.
  8. I did a quick round-up of the cards featuring 'Carnival of Thrills' jump pictures a couple of years ago. You can see it here.
  9. Roth - I recreated the card using your photo of Cathy.
  10. You're forgetting "Supreme Superior Commander", but I can't see that position becoming vacant any time soon .
  11. Garrett, I hope you can fill in the latter part of the race for me. With that rain delay, I only made it up to about lap 120 before I had to call it a night. I caught up with the result this morning, but did I miss much? What happened to Ricky? He was running around 10th after the rain restart, but then fell to near the back. He was still back in 28th when I turned it off. The lap-by-lap guide puts him at 22nd with 18 to go, but then puts him in provisional 5th at the end before finally being given 7th. Rick Hendrick must be pleased to get the win and two more drivers in the top 5.
  12. As Hobie said, the scene is from about halfway through 'Coy vs. Vance' (S05E16), and takes place outside the boarding house. There's too much movement to get a clear grab of the fight, but here's Daisy holding the boys apart:
  13. In case it helps, here's a picture of Cooter and Nancylou: IMDb gives Kim Richards' height as 5' 1" if that's any use to you. YouTube has the scene where Nancylou first meets her father:
  14. In the episode, Nancylou says she turned 18 the week before. When Cooter's being asked about his relationship with her mother, he says: "I wasn't no more than a kid..." I'm afraid I can't help you with Buster's age .
  15. Wellington (Field Marshal Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, KG GCB GCH PC FRS was a famous military leader who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom twice in the 19th Century)

    Commercials

    Here's a commercial for a mobile phone provider which features a young girl and her cat singing along to Starship's 1985 hit 'We Built This City' while riding around in circles. As the tagline says: "We all need silly stuff"! The official upload seems to be region-locked (based on the comments), so I hope this video works for everyone.

    Chat

    The chat room is open all the time, but we used to try and organize specific times to meet there. At the end of last year we managed a couple times where we picked an episode and then all watched our DVDs together while discussing it in the chat room. I don't think we've managed it since Christmas. If you fancy suggesting a time or event, please do. Just remember that some of us are in Europe, so you need to take the time difference into account .
  18. Cooter's daughter was Nancylou Nelson (played by Kim Richards). She grew up in Alabama with her mother, Beverly Hibbs, and her step-father. Her only mention is in 'Cooter's Girl' in season 6. Cooter's dog appears in 'Mason Dixon's Girls' in season 2. He's called Buster, which was Ben Jones's nickname when he was a boy. The episode also shows Cooter's farm which is "two miles east on Jessup Road".
  19. It looks like rookie Austin Dillon will be starting Sunday's Daytona 500 on pole. I'll be sticking with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. this year, so I was a little disappointed to see he'd only qualified in 34th place. Having said that, he was quickest in Practice 5, the most recent session for which NASCAR has posted results. Garrett, you can't be too unhappy with Jeff Gordon starting in 6th, even if Jimmie Johnson is down in 32nd. 1 Austin Dillon # 2 Martin Truex. Jr. 3 Matt Kenseth 4 Denny Hamlin 5 Kasey Kahne 6 Jeff Gordon 7 Marcos Ambrose 8 Kurt Busch 9 Dale Earnhardt Jr. 10 Paul Menard 11 Josh Wise 12 Brian Scott (i) 13 Aric Almirola 14 Trevor Bayne (i) 15 AJ Allmendinger 16 Kyle Larson # 17 David Gilliland 18 Landon Cassill (i) 19 Ryan Newman 20 Clint Bowyer 21 Tony Stewart 22 Jamie McMurray 23 Cole Whitt # 24 Terry Labonte 25 Greg Biffle 26 Bobby Labonte 27 Danica Patrick 28 Casey Mears 29 Alex Bowman # 30 Carl Edwards 31 Brian Vickers 32 Jimmie Johnson 33 Brad Keselowski 34 Ricky Stenhouse Jr. 35 Joey Logano 36 Michael Annett # 37 Kyle Busch 38 Kevin Harvick 39 Reed Sorenson 40 Justin Allgaier # 41 Parker Kligerman # 42 Michael Waltrip 43 David Ragan # = a rookie (i) = a driver not eligible to earn points Eric McClure, Ryan Truex, Joe Nemechek, Morgan Shepherd and Michael McDowell all failed to qualify. Dave Blaney withdrew. I know it's early in the season, but NASCAR seem to have improved their website this year. I won't go as far as to say it's perfect, but I think they're heading in the right direction. How have y'all found it? Nearly forgot - the Daytona 500 starts tomorrow (Sunday) at 1:00 PM ET, and will be live on Fox.
  20. I was surprised how fast the Suburban was on the track. The Charger didn't get a whole lot of screen time in this episode, but they promised it would return. I liked the story about when they tried to register it. They also mentioned a lawyer in connection with the stock car, so maybe they're doing things a bit more legally now! They obviously have a bunch of cars with powerful engines that all handle really badly. It's a shame they didn't include the Kia Rio in the drag race .

    Commercials

    Judging by the upload date, this commercial has been around for a few months, but I've only just seen it on this side of the Atlantic. Mercedes-Benz TV: MAGIC BODY CONTROL TV commercial "Chicken":

    One Word Song Titles

    Apparently, this song is from the soundtrack of 'Despicable Me 2' - I only got around to seeing the first one at Christmas! It still seems to be getting a lot of air play, and was the song that closed the BRIT awards earlier tonight. Happy - Pharrell Williams
