As we gear up for the festivities tomorrow, I wanna remind folks that we have a new chat application that we're trying out (see "Flash Chat" at the top of the forum). Since many folks have issues with the Java chat, and I haven't head that anybody's had any issues with the Flash chat, I'm gonna ask that y'all use the Flash Chat tomorrow. 3pm EST the doors open. I should be there at the start depending on how much I got going tomorrow, but if I'm not I will be along fear not. Save me some egg nog 'k? And be careful with the fruitcake that stuff can seriously injure people. Heh!

I don't recall there being any explanation in the show as to why the doors were taken off Dixie. The only other episode I can think of where we see the doors is the one with the lady car strippers (the title escapes me at the moment). Cooter and Daisy dress up and borrow Cooter's cousin's limo to use as bait. After the radiator is shot and Cooter and Daisy walk off from the car ("Sorry about that sweetie pie!" "It's okay sugar!" ROFL). They watch with the boys as the girls strip the car and then take off in their Jeeps. Daisy's Jeep is ready and waiting....with the doors still on it. She drives and they nearly go off a cliff. (!) After that, I don't recall seeing the doors again. And no explanation as to why. LOL And we never saw the Jeep with a hard or soft top on it either (have to wonder if Daisy had one. Otherwise, she musta parked in the barn on a rainy day. LOL)

It is pretty quiet when you're not around, BoJames. LOL

I can't believe I never saw this before now and am seeing it now because he's no longer with us. Such a shame. What a great vid and story/poem. RIP, Dale.

*rubs chin thoughtfully* Hmmm....I'll think about it.

Me? Important? And who knew that doing so little took so much work?

Keep working on it, Chet. Because I'm lookin' forward to seein' it!

If I recall correctly, your bail Brian was to finish a story AND do some udpates to the front page o' HNet. Otherwise, you'd be released at the end of the year. You've been doing one half o' that bail anyway, I'm very much aware of that. So yeah, that'll count for something. You still have that other bail condition which unfortunately has not been met as of yet so.... Looks like we'll see you January 1st.

Ooo! And here I figured the announcement about leaving HNet in mine and Brian's capable* hands was surprise enough. ROFL I'm looking forward to this! *Jury is still out.

And a very happy Christmas to you too, BoJames! Khee!

My apologies. LOL. I know you're in Ireland.

No. It means you get out of jail. LOL

Nice!! Can't wait to see when ya got both cars together!

I believe 6pm EST is around 11pm across the pond. But I've seen both Hoss and BoJames hangin' around HNet when it's well past 1am there in the UK... Heh! Actually, it might be possible to throw the doors open even earlier. I mean, we all live in so many different time zones (and have varying schedules) we'll overlap anyway. I can open the place up in the afternoon, like around 3pm EST (then have to leave for a spell to tend to some official business - namely dinner ROFL - and return after that). For those that make it to midnight (or possibly beyond), whatever mess there is in the Boar's Nest, you'll have to clean it up. LOL So just come on by starting Saturday afternoon the 11th (and again on the 18th). As Loretta Lynn said, "Y'all come! Y'all come 'n see us if you can!"

Culpable (Khee!)

When I write my novel or screen play, Mufn, YOU are gonna be my editor. Because I can't type worth beans! ROFL You know what's really embarassing? This posting thing has spell check on it. Maybe I should use it? LOL

How about we do one the 11th and one on the 18th? Same hours 6-midnight EST. You can't have too many Chrismtas parties can ya? LOL

Welcome to HNet!

Certainly if it hadn't been for this crazy show that debuted back in January of 1979, HazzardNet wouldn't have come into existence 20 years later, in 1999. And who woulda guessed back in '79 that any of it would have become what it became? Khee! Thank ya Roger. Tho', I must apologize for something. Roger wrote a wonderful tribute at the time HNet was celebrating it's 10th anniversary last year. Since HNet Admin can't be considered for Fan of the Month, he wanted to bestow the title of Fan of the Decade upon one of us. He sent it to me and I was gonna add my own bit to it reflecting on 10 years of HNet and I never got to it. I tried. Honestly, I did. But I had a hard time with the fact that it's been ten years. I remember when HNet was in its infancy. I remember those early days. They don't seem all that long ago. Well, despite calling myself a writer, I couldn't come up with anything profound to add to Roger's wonderful tribute, and the tribute remained unposted and unknown by all since last year. Maybe Roger's forgotten it, but I hadn't. So I wanna post it here now, as an addition to Roger's accolades for the three of us. I'm sure Brian will agree that HNet wouldn't been anything if it were not for Mufn. And clearly Roger knows this too. Therefore, I'm proud to present... Roger Dukes Ode to Meadowmufn and Ten Years of HazzardNet I've never met Meadowmufn. I have no idea what she looks like, what kind of car she drives or what state she lives in. For all I know she's 7 foot tall and lives in a mansion. Maybe she's 3 foot tall and lives in a shack. I don't have a clue. In fact, when I first came here, it took me a few months to figure out he wasn't a he after all. I can be closed-minded at times. I'd never really used a computer before but nearly three years ago my daughter told me that you could find anything on the internet. Of course my first question was "Dukes of Hazzard?" She then proceeded to help me find the HazzardNet and the rest is history (so far it's the only thing useful that I've found for this contraption). Before that fateful day, if someone would of told me that I'd soon have a hero that I knew nothing about I would have had a confused look on my face as big as Cletus Hogg's. At the time Jesse Duke and Charlie Daniels were my only two heros. Now I have three. Truth be known, I do know one thing about my hero Meadowmufn, in addition to the fact that she's a she. That one thing makes all those things that I don't know seem trivial. I know she loves The Dukes of Hazzard and I know she loves them enough to create the HazzardNet over a decade ago. I don't have a clue how much time, expense and sacrifice it took but I bet it was a lot and I'm sure glad she did it. I would imagine that the toughest part was having to put up with MaryAnne and Brian in those tender early years. Some things never change. I'm sure it was a labor of love for those pioneers of the HazzardNet. Us lucky late-comers like myself are now reaping the benefits. There's something special about the Dukes of Hazzard. That "something" caused Meadowmufn to want to create this site and caused us to follow our Supreme Superior Commander right down Old Mill Road past the big sign that says "Commisioner Hogg Welcomes You To Hazzard County". Some of us love the Dukes of Hazzard for different reasons. We all have our favorite characters, episodes, seasons, quotes, scenes, etc. There's a wide variety of reasons we joined the HazzardNet. We come from different counties, states, countries and continents. One thing we don't differ on is our love and appreciation for the person who has brought us all together. We love you Meadowmufn. Because of you, we all have a second family bonded by a love that only exists by folks who's heart's in Hazzard County. Long live the HazzardNet. Long live Hazzard County. Roger Duke

I'm scared already!
