  1. Thanks, Hobie!! I haven't been over here for a bit. I've heard of Rush, but I'm not really familiar with them. (Yes, I'm a musical phillistine! Lol!) I'll definitely look it up.

    Hmmm... Everybody seems to agree that Boss would absolutely not have a hand in this - and we all know Rosco wouldn't have the brains to do it on his own! - so... Hmmmm... I wonder if those two nasty pieces of work that drove the 'Mean Green Machine' (I think that's what it was called) are out of jail, yet?

    It was the Dukes that made sure they got there, after all, IIRC.

    Hmmm... I think I'm going to have to do some homework, here. (If you can call Dukes research 'work'... Lol!)

    Cheers,

    Susan.

    The song "Passage To Bangkok" is by Rush.....you shouldn't have any trouble finding it! I know Copperhead Road! Great song! Reminds me of where I grew up! I also took Tae Kwon Do with Zip Gibson, Steve Earle's guitarist! He was a nice guy! Hey, here's the words to the song by Rush....you've heard of Rush haven't you? ( But just remember what boss said, ...He wouldn't deal in drugs for any amount of money!)
  2. Sorry, Hobie! Somehow I managed to miss this last time around.

    No, I'm not familiar with this song, but I might look it up. Thankyou. The one on this topic (Well sort of) that I'm most familiar with, is Steve Earl's classic 'Copperhead Road'.

    I take the seed from Colombia and Mexico

    I plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road

    Cheers!

  3. Hmmm... Thankyou, Hoss.

    I was thinking just two or three plants, maximum - not exactly huge commercial quantities - and we all know what a hypocrite Boss can be when he wants to be, but that's definitely something I'll need to consider.

    Thankyou.

    Might have to see if I can get hold of that ep. somehow.

    [susan wanders off looking very thoughtful.]

  4. Thankyou so much to everyone!! :)

    I think I know where I'm going, now. The story is set during the series (Maybe near the end) and something that Hoss said has tied in with a suggestion that someone at this end made.

    Boss has seen some confiscated pot plants in an evidence locker of a neighbouring county sheriff, and has come up with another of his brilliant (?) ideas to make trouble for the Dukes - possibly even getting his hands on the farm.

    He either steals or buys the plants and has Rosco plant them on the Duke's property late at night. He can then have them 'discovered' the next day, and... Bingo! Lol!

    Especially since the boys are on parole. I'm not familiar with the US justice system, but I would imagine getting caught with illegal drugs would breach said parole...

    Any suggestions as to which Sheriff he gets them from, welcome, though! (I know there were at least two other county Sheriffs mentioned. Were any of them crooked, too? It's been a while.)

    Again, Thankyou Everyone! :)

  5. This might be better off over in the fan-fic section, but I figured that it might be less likely to cause a ruckus over here. :) (If I'm wrong, please let me know!)

    But basically, if I wanted to frame someone in Hazzard for growing marijuana, where would I have gotten the plants from?

    I'm not American, and I was far too young back when this aired to know about things like that, so... can anyone help? Please?

    Thankyou,

    Susan.

  6. Mary Anne has just kindly posted another story of mine over in the DoHFF. It's called "Daisy and the Dolls", and it's a pre-Christmas story, rather than an actual Christmas one. I hope people like it, though.

    I'd love to hear from anyone, either way. :)

    "It's nearly Christmas, but Daisy's upset, and her family's worried." Find out what's wrong, and what happens next, here: http://www.dukesofhazzardfanfic.com/SubmittedFanFic/daisyandthedolls.htm

    It's a stand-alone, rather than a part of the Film series, so hence the new thread.

    A Happy and Safe Holiday season to everyone, however you celebrate - or even if you don't!

    Cheers,

    Susan.

  7. *Disclaimer: As Mary Anne said earlier, this is just MY opinion.*

    I'm not American, but we do sometimes face a similar situation over here, with the Australian Aboriginal People.

    It's been my experience, that 90% of them would prefer to be treated equally, and let the past be the past. Unfortunately, there is a minority of oversensitive people (Of white as well as black) who see offense in almost everything - and, also unfortunately - they're the ones that get all the publicity. :(

    IMO, the Dukes is the least racist thing I have ever seen in my life. A fabulous FAMILY show, that I would be proud to let any child of mine watch, knowing that they will not see the violence, sex, and swearing that populate most modern TV shows. <Ummm... Does this soapbox belong to someone here? Sorry!>

    Just to put a slightly different slant on this - IMHO, I think that if Jessie had ever caught the boys - or Daisy, for that matter - using racist trash-talk, or discriminating against someone, like that, he would certainly have had something to say about it!! (And when they were younger, quite likely a strap for their behinds, as well!)

    Just my opinion, for what it's worth!

    Cheers, All!

  8. Merry Christmas, Everyone! :)

    I came across this song on youtube, and figured it would definitely be something that would get the Boar's Nest rocking!! (The artist is apparently Keith Harling, btw.)

    (You'll need to get rid of the spaces around the www . I didn't want to annoy Mary-Anne by posting a link w/ out permission! Lol!)

    Have a Happy and Safe one, all!
