I thought you might like this one, esp. being from my homeland! The Jack O Lantern Legend It's unlikely that pumpkins grew in Celtic heartlands, so our ancestors probably made pumpkins by hollowing out turnips and placing a candle inside. There is an enduring Irish story based on the Jack O Lantern. Mischievously, Jack tricks the Devil into climbing up an apple tree, with a promise of cider. Then, Jack carved the sign of the cross, into the trunk of the tree. This infuriated the devil, as he dared not climb back down the tree and touch the cross. Years later Jack dies and because of his life of mischief, drunkenness and worse, there is no chance of him going to heaven. Reluctantly, Jack heads for Hell, but the Devil remembers his prank of the cross on the apple tree and consequently refuses Jack entry into Hell. Thus, Jack is left to roam the Netherworld, and the only time of the year when he can become visible, is at Halloween, hence Jack O' Lantern!

What book by Ben? I might have to go shopping!

No...YOU guys do! LOL!! Yes, you would say I do but there are so many Yankees down here ( more of them than there are of us!), that some of the people here pronounce words like Yankees do! Charlie Daniels lives not too far from me...in Mount Juliet. Loretta Lynn has a ranch outside Nashville. I live right outside Cookeville in Sparta, home of Lester Flatt ( Flatt and Scruggs...bluegrass...a certain type of country music) Charlie Daniels real last name is Daniel with no " S ". He said they got it wrong when he first got into music and it just stuck!

OK.....this is from the HUH??? or the WHAAAAT??? Dept. You know those few times/scenes, in episodes that you have no explanation for? Well, on this episode, when Enos and Rosco had collected all the merchandise that Bo and Luke had been framed with ( Remember they supposedly tried to make off with merchandise from a dept. store and it was all set up by Boss? ) . Enos and Rosco were in Rosco's office WITH the merchandise and Enos said, " Well I guess that clears the Duke Boys of all charges" And Rosco said, " That's a wrong, that's a wrong! They're probably hiding the evidence, just to weasel out of it!" WHAAT?? This made no sense! They were HOLDING the evidence ( all except for the car) in their hands even as he said this! This made no sense!

Opening NIGHT at the Boar's nest

They are great!

+1!! Great post my Brother!

JUST good ol' boys!

I really didn't like Grady....he seemed to be a yankee trying to act southern. I liked Huey Hogg the best.

I think that's what I am Gen X.......

For Z, how about Ms. TiZdale.....unless it's been done and/or lacks imagination ( )

Thanks! You and Roger know all the DOH stuff!

(you millennials don't know what it was like waiting an entire week to watch a single episode and no way to record it; you caught it or you were out of luck for another week ) Millenials?? LOL!! I'm 52 ( 8/31/65) Ha Ha! I remember those days quite well myself!

Most definitely!

Did you ever notice Boss's nephew Huey Hogg, had a brother named Dewey Hogg and he only appeared in one episode but it made me notice, Huey, Dewey,........remember Donald Duck's 3 nephews? Huey, Dewey and Louie! We never got to see a " Louie" though, unfortunately! I think the DOH could've/should've run for a lot longer than it did! Maybe they would've eventually had a " Louie" Hogg!

This is true. It brought Hazzard more to reality and gave it more texture.

Mr. ....Wickle? ( The guy that did the children's show for Daisy's all girl patrol.)

Enos and ....( What was the old lay's name?) She was arrested and they sang the gospel song.... ON a hill far away stood an OLD rugged cross.....

MOONSHINE! ( nothing beats it, if it's made right!)

Wildfire...remember this one? By Michael Martin Murphy? https://www.bing.com/search?q=she+ran+calling+wildfire+song&form=EDNTHT&mkt=en-us&httpsmsn=1&refig=195019a8d11e40b9f8e8cb8fa193713e&sp=2&qs=AS&pq=she+ran+calling+wil&sk=AS1&sc=5-19&cvid=195019a8d11e40b9f8e8cb8fa193713e&cc=US&setlang=en-US

KIN - people you're related to...seems that everybody in Hazzard was either kin or knew them! ( I was going to use Lucas K Duke but I think I used that one last time!)

Yes and they even appeared on a few episodes! Lester Flatt's wife just died here a couple/three years back!
