Skipper Duke

My mom is getting a valve replaced next week. It's a pretty simple operation compared to triple bypass. I have a bad valve too. They keep an eye on it but it's going to need replaced someday. Hopefully it can wait until I'm in my 80s like my mom. 

You learn something every day when you hang around Skipper Duke!

You are smarter than me Skipper. I didn't even remember that one. Are you sure there are more? I'd be surprised if there were.

I have come up the fun task/game of finding out exactly how many of these there are. The first one I come up with is in Season 3 Enos Strate to the Top. Anyone wanna chime in?

Loved it though I have to talk to that cousin of mine!! She knows Luke is mine! LOL

I've been doing a lot of dirt bike riding lately. Feeling like a kid again....not counting arthritis in my lower back.
Went fishing for 5 hours yesterday and didn't get a single bite. It was Fish For Free Day in Pennsylvania. You didn't need license. 

Anybody see that video of the tire flying toward the crowd in Indianapolis? Luckily, went past them and hit a car in the parking lot. 

Hey, the story is great! Feel kinda sorry for Luke though being caught between two Davenport Women.

PS. Course I can't stand that cousin of mine being anywhere near Luke! LOL

Thanks Cousin HossC. Can always count on you.

Yes, possums are found to be immune to the venom of most snakes which makes it perfectly safe for them to eat snakes. Scientists have figured out that there is a compound in possums’ blood which makes it immune to snake venom1. This compound is a peptide that can act against a snake’s venom

It's part of a scene from about halfway through 'Sittin' Dukes' in season 7. Here's the full scene:

Sheriff Little is interrogating Jesse and Daisy with Boss and Rosco watching.

Sheriff Little: Who put you up to driving that truck?
Daisy: Them escaped convicts, that's who.
Jesse: And nobody put us up to it. They made us do it. Just like they made Bo and Luke drive that car.
Rosco: Oh, tish, tush, tiddly-walker. Are you trying to tell me that Luke Duke did not know this Benson fella in the Marine Corps?
Daisy: Well, sure they were in the Marines together, Rosco.
Jesse: But they weren't buddies. As a matter of fact, Luke sent that Benson fella to the brig.
Rosco: Oh, baloney.
Boss: Bologna. Did you say bologna?
Rosco: Yes, I said, baloney.
Boss: Where is it?
Rosco: Oh, these Dukes are dishing out the baloney.
Sheriff Little: Are you two gonna talk or am I gonna have to spend the rest of the day grilling you, huh?
Boss: Wait, please don't use that word, "grill". It reminds me of hamburgers, frankfurters and barbeques.
Rosco: Ahh.
Boss: Listen, I got an idea. Why don't we just break for lunch?
Sheriff Little: [To Boss and Rosco] You two ain't going nowhere. [Turning to Jesse and Daisy] Neither are these two, until you talk. Now, I've cracked some hard-boiled eggs before.
Boss: Hard-boiled eggs.
Daisy: Will y'all just stop fishing around and try and help Bo and Luke?
Boss: Fish. I can't stand it anymore. I gotta have something to eat. Give me something to eat. Anything. I'll eat anything. Anything. Give me something to eat.

Boss then runs out to try and take the dog biscuit that Enos is feeding to Flash.

(Not sure off hand which season/episode. But it's a scene with Boss and Rosco. Dukes tell Rosco something and he don't buy it.  Rosco:"Oh Bologna!" Boss Hogg :"Bologna? Bologna? Did you say Bologna!?" Rosco:"Yeah I said Bologna." Boss Hogg:"Where is it? Where's the Bologna?" Rosco:"Oh these Dukes are dishin' out the Bologna!"

I'm sure Hazzard CO. was like every other place in the south including where I'm from ( middle Tn.!)  we had what Yankees call 
 
Oppossums......around here they're just possums! ...road killl etc. they can't be killed by poison snakes!  and there's a bunch of other neat stuff about them!     

ain't it nice to KNOW that there's a place in this 'ol world where things never change -waylon

Wow, this is tough to hear about. My wife has co-workers vacationing in Italy right now. I'll have to see if I can get an update on them. I don't know what part they are in. 

I'm going to enter this with my own car....The Moonshine Mauler!   

The area apparently had six months' rain in 36 hours, and the death toll has now risen to 13. F1 has announced that they will donate €1 million (approx. $1,080,000) to the relief effort. This comes a day after Ferrari, whose factory is in the region, also pledged €1 million. F1 president and former Ferrari F1 team principal Stefano Domenicali is from Imola, which was to have hosted this weekend's Grand Prix.

I posted eight screengrabs from 'The Shootist' back on page 7 of this thread. Here's the one showing the livery stables.

Mark B even included a homage to 'The Shootist' in his model of Cooter's Garage.

I never knew that!! Wow! Thanks!  

I didn’t read through the entire thread recently, so I don’t know if it has been mentioned. My apologies if it has. The conversation about “Rebel Without a Cause” reminded me that Cooter’s garage is the livery stable in “The Shootist.”  You also see a few wider street shots in that movie.
