This one's really addressed to MeadowMufn. I know that for various, unavoidable reasons you haven't had as much time as you'd like for HNet recently. One consequence is that first posts from new members aren't always moderated for view within 24 hours of posting, which means they can easily get missed by people like me who mainly click on "Today's Posts". One recent example is Brenton's excellent Boss Hogg Drawing that I only discovered nearly three months after it was posted. Is it possible to either change the time stamp on moderated posts or maybe just post a very brief reply so they don't get lost? I can imagine new members being disheartened if they think their first contibutions are being ignored. In the meantime, get well soon. For the rest of us, let's make the effort to keep an eye out for posts from new members so we can welcome them to Hazzard County .

If you're looking for Uncle Jesse overalls then the light wash denim does seem to be elusive (unless you want childrenswear or ones with cut-off legs for women). I searched Ebay.com (using the search term "bib overall"), and the nearest ones turned out to be striped when I zoomed in . Your spelling of colour suggests you're somewhere that speaks British English, so you could try searching for "dungarees" (which appears to be a type of jeans in the US). The closest I found was on Ebay.co.uk. They're still a little dark - maybe a bit of bleach could sort that out . The asking price is £33.99 + P&P, and they're available in sizes from XS to XXL. To cover all bases, the seller describes them as "Men Women Unisex Light Wash Denim Onesie Dungarees All In One Piece Bib Overalls"!

When the time is right, just be careful what you search for - I saw this on Failblog the other day :

I took a trip back to the late-80s recently when I watched the Jeff Goldblum/Geena Davis comedy 'Earth Girls Are Easy'. Which two of the following Dukes cast appeared in the movie?: A) Sonny Shroyer (Enos) Nedra Volz (Miz Tisdale) C) Don Pedro Colley (Sheriff Little) D) Lindsay Bloom (Mabel Tillingham) E) Jeff Altman (Hughie Hogg) F) Rick Hurst (Cletus)

chips (like fat French Fries. What y'all call chips, we call crisps, and what you call Lay's, we call Walkers (although Tayto and King are more popular in Ireland))

potato (I am in Ireland ) PS. For any Dan Quayle supporters out there, it's the same as a potatoe .

I'll probably think of some more ideas, but here's a few suggestions to be going on with: 1) I agree that you could probably merge "Dukes of Hazzard News" and "Latest News". 2) "On TV This Week" could merge with the "TV" section of "Community" or become a sub-forum of it. 3) "Dukes of Hazzard Trivia" could probably become another heading under "Community" rather than having its own section. 4) "DukesOfHazzardFanFic.com" no longer seems to have its own identity or header, so could become another heading under "Fan Fiction". 5) "Moderator Meetin' Minutes" and "Chat Times" could be archived. 6) The "Dukes of Hazzard Movie" and "Dukes of Hazzard PC and Video Games" sections aren't so popular nowadays, so could maybe slip down the list whilst giving "The Show" section higher billing. 7) I've just noticed after all these years that "New Users Guide" needs an apostrophe. My preference would be "New Users' Guide", but "New User's Guide" would still be OK, and match the "New Hazzard Citizen's Guide" heading. Of course, you could change that to "New Hazzard Citizens' Guide"!

It's not very clear in this picture, but it's supposed to say "Vance". If you do a Google image search for "christopher mayer autograph" you'll see better examples. There's not much to go on - what makes you think it's Laramie Street? I'm not saying you're wrong, but I can't see anything that places it Laramie Street either.

The non-too-flattering text seems to say: The years are starting to show on surviving cast members: (from left) Ben Jones, Bach, Sonny Shroyer, James Best, Wopat, Denver Pyle and Schneider. This was taken during the first reunion movie. I'm not sure why Cathy, Tom and John got their first names missed off. Here's another picture of Cathy and Norma - the caption says 1980: imagecollect.com (as if you couldn't guess!) And here's Cathy, Norma and Gertrude (Cathy's grandmother according to the caption) in 1981: imagecollect.com And to keep to family theme going, Cathy and her daughters, Sophie and Laura in 2012: Getty Images BTW. Cooter's daughter is Nancylou, played by Kim Richards.

I have enough trouble remembering the birthdays of family and friends, but I'm going with Cooter as well.

While I was on Ebay I also found some adverts that Cathy did for Kawasaki. The advertisers list them as 1985/86. I've stretched/tweaked some of them. Ebay Ebay Ebay vintagepaperads.com

When you posted the mirror pictures the other day, I went looking for more pictures of Cathy. One of the first to show up was a cover of LosAngeles magazine. A search for a larger version led me back to Ebay. Ebay On the next page I found another picture from the same photoshoot (NB. I've cropped this one a little at the top and left, but no more of the lady on the right was visible). It's attributed to Harry Langdon: Ebay/Harry Langdon There seem to be quite a few pictures of Cathy from studio shoots on Ebay at the moment, most attributed to Harry Langdon (remember the stripey leotard and white tree from a few pages back?). Here's another example below. I'll dig some more out if anyone's interested. Harry's other subjects include Cheryl Ladd, Sally Field, Diana Ross and Dolly Parton amongst many, many others. Ebay/Harry Langdon A few pages ago I posted pictures of Lurene Tuttle and her daughter. Well, here's a picture of Cathy and her mother, Norma. I also found a picture of Cathy with her mother and grandmother which I can post if anyone wants to see it (it has intrusive watermarks across it). Ebay

Good news! I think I've finally cracked my Flash Player problem by applying a fix that I'd swear didn't work the first time I tried it. To lighten the mood, here's a related joke I saw earlier: My computer crashed and now all the other computers have slowed down so they can see what's happening. If you want something a little more satirical, how about this one?: My computer takes so long to respond these days that it's only good for the United Nations now.

I tend to switch off when the commercials are on. Occasionally I'm two minutes late coming back to the race and find I'm just in time for the next commercial break! Roger, you didn't give me much to go on when I tried to track down the promo you mentioned. I haven't found it yet, but I did find the following video: Apparently, back in the '80s, various drivers recorded a double album containing 22 songs under the title 'Stock Car Racing's Entertainers of the Year'. You can read more about it on this Jalopnik article (which has a few more videos), and see the full track listing here. Maybe y'all have this album, but it was new to me.

I didn't recognize Al in the picture. There's a screengrab of him driving the general earlier in this thread. As for Al delivering cakes ... I'm sure I'd know Paul Baxley, but my memory's not so good with Gary - well spotted CD.

It's from 'The Law and Jesse Duke' in season 4. Rosco and Cletus (and Flash) go on strike for more money (and bones). Boss then invites some thieves to rob a store in Hazzard, frames Bo and Luke for the robbery, and deputizes Uncle Jesse to catch them. The banners include "HAZZARD POLICE ON STRIKE"/"MORE DOUGH FOR THE LAW MORE LAW FOR YOUR DOUGH", "A STARVING DEPUTY FEEDS CRIME" and "SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL POLICE DOG ... NO BONES!".

NASCAR are showing commercials during the race - I must've missed them .

Adam and the Ants Not when I'm a modest '80s music fan Ridicule is nothing to be scared of!

Lucky (...being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?)

I wonder why they painted out the R/T badge but left the Charger logo. I spotted the following picture recently when I was researching a question for the trivia thread. The picture comes from the New Georgia Encyclopedia and shows filming in Covington. I have emailed them about their inaccurate caption (it mentions "the Duke brothers' muscle car"), but so far they haven't changed it. Just for comparison, here's a black and white picture that Roth posted earlier in this thread. I think that's Uncle Jesse's original 1968 F100 Flareside parked outside the Newton County Courthouse. That might even be Uncle Jesse at its rear corner.

I only got to see the end of qualifying yesterday, and was too tired to post the starting line-up last night - sorry. Denny Hamlin gets pole for the IRWIN Tools Night Race. Kyle Busch starts from the back after clipping the wall on his first lap, doing a U-turn to get a run-up at the second lap, and then clipping the wall harder (see the video here). Jimmie Johnson was another driver who had to do a U-turn, but he managed 17th. It's good to see Jeff Gordon back in his regular colors (I didn't take to last week's blue/white paint scheme), but he could only qualify 32nd. 1 Denny Hamlin 2 Kurt Busch 3 Carl Edwards 4 Brian Vickers 5 Matt Kenseth 6 Joey Logano 7 Kasey Kahne 8 Ryan Newman 9 Martin Truex Jr 10 Aric Almirola 11 Mark Martin 12 Brad Keselowski 13 Jimmie Johnson 14 Marcos Ambrose 15 Kevin Harvick 16 Juan Pablo Montoya 17 David Ragan 18 Ryan Truex 19 Dale Earnhardt Jr 20 Jamie McMurray 21 Paul Menard 22 Danica Patrick 23 Bobby Labonte 24 Clint Bowyer 25 David Gilliland 26 Michael McDowell 27 Ricky Stenhouse Jr 28 Josh Wise 29 Greg Biffle 30 Casey Mears 31 David Reutimann 32 Jeff Gordon 33 Landon Cassill 34 J.J. Yeley 35 Ken Schrader 36 Dave Blaney 37 Joe Nemechek 38 David Stremme 39 Travis Kvapil 40 Tony Raines 41 Jeff Burton 42 Scott Speed 43 Kyle Busch Don't forget that it's a night race, tonight (Saturday) at 7:30 PM ET on ABC. I know Garrett likes night races and Bristol Motor Speedway. I don't have a problem with night races other than they're really late here when you consider the time difference. This weekend also sees F1 at one of my favorite tracks, Spa Francorchamps in Belgium. They've had wet and dry weather for the practice sessions, so there may well be some rain to spice up the qualifying and race action. The race itself starts at 8:00AM ET tomorrow.

The pictures show up fine for me. Just to clarify - the chimney next to the General in the second picture is the one that's mostly hidden on the left of the first picture.
