On Mondays at 8 am at my wound care center appointments at hospital my doctor recognizes my Skipper's hats when I wear them there. He is like Mr. Howell cuz he calls me "Captain". I wore Bluenox version today. Today he asked me "Captain did you bring your boat?" Each week when I leave after he does his magic, he says "Take care and behave Captain!"

(Season 1 Two on a Raft) Gilligan & Skipper disguised as a bush and a tree to fool the Marubi headhunters. Skipper:"How do I look?" Gilligan:"You look like a fat bush!" Skipper:"When I want your opinion, I'll ask for it!" Gilligan:"You just asked for it!" Skipper:"Oh shut up!" Gilligan:"Shhh." Skipper:"Remember now, if there's any danger, just stand still, and you're a tree!"

(Season 3 The Canterbury Crock) Rosco is drivin' General Lee with Boss Hogg ridin' shotgun.) Boss Hogg:"Do you know how to drive this?" Rosco:"Listen, I'm good! I'm doin' good!" Boss Hogg:"Yeah? Well, you ain't doin' as good as the Duke Boys do!"(Spots Maury & Beckman in Rosco's stolen police car.)"There they are! Now don't lose 'em!" Rosco:"I got the pedal to the metal!" Maury:"Nobody's gonna catch us with that vase now Mr. Beckman!" Mr. Beckman:"Vase!" Maury:"Yep!" Mr. Beckman:"The vase, we left it in the other car! Turn this around quickly!" Rosco:(Drivin' General Lee with Boss Hogg ridin' shotgun. Rosco sees Maury & Beckman turn his stolen police car around.)"Now where are they goin'?" Boss Hogg:"Well, follow 'em, then we'll know!"

Yep it was very considerate of him and it did mean a lot for me to be 1st to know about him retiring.

(Season 1 The Big Heist)A Boss Hogg is counting out money in his Courthouse office. Neil Bishop bursts in. Boss Hogg:"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! Look, if it's money yer after, forget it. I never keep any money in my office!" Neil looks wide eyed at the money on the desk and in Boss's hand. He looks back at Boss. Boss Hogg:"Except a few pennies fer my poor Mama's operation, an' that's the truth! I swear it in my Mama's grave!" Neil Bishop:"You fill up that sack! Fill it! Come on, faster! Gimme! Alright, now you turn around and count to 100." Boss Hogg:"1, 2, 3, 4, 5-" Neil Bishop:"Slow!" Boss Hogg:"Oh 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100!" Waylon Jennings:"Old Boss can't even count to 100 without cheatin'!"

But, now who in his right mind would make a counterfeit plate yay long and yay narrow, an' if you're not outta my county in 30 minutes, I'm callin' the FBI."

(Season 1 Repo Men) Luke Duke:"That wreck out there, how much will you give us if we haul it off for ya?" Ace Parker:"Well, now, that's $700 boys. We both know what it is, an' what it's worth." Bo Duke:"We'll take it!" Ace Parker:"Since you Duke Boys quit makin' whiskey, you ain't earned $700 in a year." Luke Duke:"We'll give you $200, an' you can hold it." Ace Parker:"I'm holdin' it now! You see, it's on special today. But tomorrow, price is $1,000!" Bo Duke:"Well, how come?" Ace Parker:"Because you need it. I got it. It's the only one around."

FOX Hollow(a place in the 2004 PlayStation 2 and Xbox game Return of the General Lee)

I knew. I'm pals with Raymond who owns it. He announced it to me privately before the public announcement.

Gilligan's Island fans... I bring y'all sad news. This was posted by the owner of American Patrol Co. After 33 years, American Patrol Company is moving into retirement. This has been a difficult decision to make, but the time has come. Starting now, A.P.Co is selling off its two subdivisions, The historic Lancaster Hat company and its vintage canvas/WWII field gear division. Each division has substantial quantities of materials, clicker dies canvas, hardware, webbing patterns etc. Both divisions’ assets are completely intact so manufacturing can resume in your own facility without needing to purchase anything else. My greatest hope is someone will purchase either division whole. I have many customers who also hope that will happen so they can continue doing business with a reputable maker. The quality of American Patrol Companies materials are all top notch. Most hardware and other materials are NOS vintage items. Materials include literally miles and hundreds of pounds of fabric, canvas, webbing, hardware, tooling, and machinery. I can give specific quantities and photos if someone is interested. PM me if so. I would like to sell everything by the fall of 2023. If you or someone you know might be interested, message me and I will provide lists and photographs of the assets that go with each division.

Andy:"That won't bring that bird back to life. Bein' sorry is not the magic word that makes everything right again." Andy(Raises window):"You hear that? That's those young birds chirpin' fer their momma that's never comin' back. Now you just listen to that for awhile."

Waylon Jennings:"So old Cooter dropped the bad news on the Duke Boys." (Bo & Luke are riding in the General Lee discussing Rosco's "injuries".) Luke Duke:"I just don't understand how Rosco could've been hurt so bad!" Bo Duke:"He looked fine to me! Fine fer Rosco anyway!"(Laughs). Luke Duke:"I guess maybe sometimes injuries can take awhile to come on, an' make their effects known! Course, somebody like Rosco, shoot, when yer slow I guess yer slow!"
