Skipper Duke

That HAS to be where they got Hughie and Dewey's names!

DuckTales is also being revamped here in the Netherlands, but as a magazine, I got the first edition for free with my Donald Duck Magazine subscription. It's kind of strange since we already have DD Magazine itself, which is basically the same but with the whole cast of people living in Duckburg (It's called Duckstad in the Netherlands) and surrounding areas. Both don't seem to exists in the USA.

There was an old cartoon called Duck Tales when my daughter was growing up and now they're remaking it so I get to watch it with my grandkids. It has them on it.

When I had first heard of Dewey....many years ago, I already knew his cousin, ( Brother?) Hughie, I wondered if there was a Louie, that we'd hear from later if the show had survived longer? Remember Donald Duck's 3 nephews?

Thanks for posting this Hoss and thanks for bringing up something from Julie. 

I know that this is a very old thread, but it seemed silly to start a new one.
I was watching the 1965 movie "The Loved One" earlier, and spotted a familiar face playing the lead. Here's Robert Morse, aka. Dewey Hogg, as Dennis Barlow.

The movie's a rather strange yet enjoyable satire on the funeral business in Los Angeles. It dates from two years before "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", the Robert Morse movie which had its title parodied in his Dukes episode, "How to Succeed in Hazzard".
In "The Loved One", Robert pulls off a quite convincing English accent throughout, although a brief attempt at what I took to be Scots isn't as good. There's quite a list of well-known co-stars, including Rod Steiger, Milton Berle, James Coburn, Sir John Gielgud, Roddy McDowall and a cameo for Liberace as a casket salesman. Additionally, Lionel "When they met...it was moider" Stander plays a newspaper staff writer masquerading as an advice guru, and Paul Williams (Little Enos in SATB) gets his first acting role as a boy genius rocket maker, despite being in his mid-20s at the time.

Boss's nephew needed some mentioned on this board alreadry.

Thanks Tom! ❤️ 

Sending prayers her way.

I've heard that. How much are they worth? 

My sister called crying today. She had to put her cat to sleep. It had cancer. She lives a long ways away and we rarely talk so I could tell she really needed her big brother. I told her about you Skipper. 

Awe. 😀 

But in my heart I am. I'd be proud to be your Uncle! 

Thanks Roger (Uncle Jesse). I know. "I ain't yer Uncle Jesse." 😂 

I haven't laughed that loud in awhile. The 3 rivers that go through Pittsburgh are all wide enough to have islands in the middle of them....Maybe I should book myself. I could be "little buddy" if we get marooned. (Although I would prefer professor) 

There is one thing I have learned about loss Skipper. 
There is an old saying "There is no right or wrong way to heal." 
Do whatever you need to do to bring yourself comfort. Everybody understands loss but there is nobody who completely understands what each individual is going through. This will not be an easy week or even month for you. At the moment it seems like there is no way you will ever get better. Go ahead and feel sorry for yourself and believe that you will never get better. That's completely normal. 
But a day will come when you will think more about who Ruby was than what her fate was. You will get better. 
We love you cousin. 

Growing up at my grandparents we watched shows like Dukes, The Golden Girls, Three’s Company, All in The Family, Mash, & Smokey and The Bandit ( not a show but love it just as much as Dukes ) too many to name so many classics. But nothing will ever compare to Dukes.

you got that right! Let's see, Six Million Dollar Man, Batman and Robin ( not the cartoon but the one with Adam West and Burt Ward), Kung Fu......

How long will I cry at bedtime because my Ruby dog is gone? She was only put down yesterday. It was my first night sleeping alone crying. But I found a way to keep her with me. It might sound stupid to some people. Her leash not the one she went outside for potty on, but her bedtime one that made her stay with me all these 14 1/2 years of her life from jumping down to pee or poop in the house at night time, I held it last night. I only meant to hold the metal part of it the chain link part, and the whole thing came untied off the bed post. So I held onto the pink cloth part, stretching the metal out beside me as if she was still there. It takes up the same length that she did from where her head and tail would have been, or tail to head when she was facing me backwards butt first. When I rolled onto my back and left side, I left the whole leash stretched out beside and behind me. Until I fell asleep, I would sometimes rub the metal and then pat it just like how I rubbed and patted her.

Thanks again Cousin Roger (Uncle Jesse).

Been thinking of you and Ruby all day cousin Skipper. 

So sad. She was lucky to have you and you were lucky to have her. (It's worth saying twice)

Thanks Webb. ❤️ 

How old IS a senior citizen? I get discounts  sometimes and sometimes not. I think different places have different ages. Is there an official, " Senior Citizen" age?..........it really doesn't matter though, I'm immature enough never to qualify! LOL!   ( inside at least.....my up coming hernia surgery and my arthritis all over my body, tell me different! )
