Skipper Duke

I was watching a Coy/ Vance episode and Coy told Vance, " Aye Aye Skipper" and saluted him!  I guesss everybody here knows who i thought about...lol!

It's from 'Goodbye, General Lee' in season 4. After Rosco tells Boss that he took care of the General, the conversation is:

Rosco: Listen, Boss, I want a raise now. I want more than 50% of my 50%. Come back.

Boss: I'll give you a raise. I'll give you a 50% raise. I'll give you 50% of 50% of 50%. How about that?

Rosco: Well, that's better. I got him just where he wants me.

How about the time ( again....can't remember the episode) when  Boss was double dealing Rosco ( like he always did) and Rosco thought he was getting the better end of the deal and he said,. " I've got him just where he wants me."  A statement like that can bend your brain! LOL   

I can't remember the episode but it's ...oh wait ......." Two Too Many Roscos". that's it!    Rosco: OK....this is a kidnapping, right? Bad Guy: Believe me sheriff, you're not being kidnapped. We just sort of ....borrowed you for a little while."  Rosco: Ohhh.....that rattles my slats! ( one of the best lines of all time...used it a few times myself!) You don't borrow a human being....you borrow a cup of sugar maybe....kee kee"

Anybody seen that commercial with Danica in it? She looks pretty good! ( A babe? BabISH?)

true

(Season 3 Gilligan vs Gilligan)Professor:"Gilligan, I'm afraid under the circumstances of circumstantial evidence, you are a provericator!" Gilligan:"Oh. Well, that's better than calling me a liar." Skipper:"Gilligan, that's what provericator means!"

(Season 2 Ghost a Go-Go)Ghost:"AooooOooo!!!" Gilligan:"No, that wasn't you Skipper." Gilligan(Looks out window, sees ghost)Ghost:"AooooOooo!!!" Gilligan(Runs over to hammocks, wakes up Skipper)"Hey Skipper, Skipper, wake up! Wake up!" Skipper:"What is it? What's a matter, Little Buddy?" Gilligan:"I just saw a ghost out there!"(pointing to door/window of hut)Skipper:"Oh, for goodness sakes Gilligan. You didn't wake me up out of a sound sleep to tell me about your nightmare?" Gilligan:"No, no! I saw a real live ghost, out there!"(pointing to hut door/window again)Skipper:"Gilligan, people are alive, ghosts are dead." Gilligan:"Then, I saw a real dead ghost, and he ran that way."(pointing to the direction the ghost ran in)Skipper:"Well, if he was dead, how come he was running that way?" Gilligan:"But Skipper, but Skipper. He's right out there, Skipper."(points to the hut door/window once again)Skipper:"Oh Gilligan, will you stop that!? Now, go to sleep! Goodnight!"

Happy Belated Birthday to Alan Hale Jr.(Skipper)!3/8/1921!

True

Happy 61st Dukes of Hazzard Birthday today to John Schneider(Bo Duke)!4/8/60!

YOU said it cousin...I didn't !!     
 

Cousin Hobie... Cuz she's a woman lol. Not as good a driver as men.

Another hijack of the thread for a belated tribute. On March 16th we lost German racing driver Sabine Schmitz after a four year battle with cancer. She was just 51.

Despite having a successful racing career, it was her first appearance on 'Top Gear' that brought the "Queen of the Nürburgring" to a worldwide audience. The Nürburgring is a 12.9 mile track with 147 corners that's located in the middle of a German forest. Sabine was born there and knew the track better than anyone.

Here's the Top Gear Special tribute which aired last night. It includes contributions from TG presenters old and new as well as a variety of people from the world of motorsport.
 
 

Well, that's true....Hey! Brake issues and Break issues...sounds like that guy is from where I live! LOL!! Nobody here knows how to spell!!

Why is it that Danica Patrick is never in the lead or even close to the front in wins or points? She's ALWAYS way down on the list! ....Just sayin'!!

She's always at the center of a wreck or some sort of trouble! She needs to go! Maybe to Powder Puff???

Congratulations Garrett, you finally got the result you wanted.
I watched/listened to the whole race, and you didn't miss much at the start. At least two of the early cautions were for cars losing grip and spinning out on their own - I'm not sure why they need to throw a caution when there's no contact, no debris and the car that spun is safely out of the way on the apron.
After last week, I was hoping for a better result from Ricky, but he stayed in the 20s for most of the race and just missed out on getting the lucky dog a couple of times. He did, however, do a great job avoiding the spinning AJ Allmendinger. When David Gilliland's car caught fire, one of the commentators said "And that is unbelievable ... crash". We all know that the phrase he was looking for was "What a horrendous crash!"

Just in case anyone's wondering, today's race has been officially postponed due to rain. It will now take place tomorrow (Monday) at noon.
Am I the only one to see the irony in having a race sponsored by Duck Commander postponed by conditions that are sometimes described as "nice weather for ducks"!

Belated Happy Easter HazzardNet members!

Well y'all...I got some happy news for you. NASCAR SEASON IS FINALLY HERE!!!! I am beyond excited about it...but also a sad. Excited because life isn't complete without NASCAR...but sad that this is the last year that Jeff Gordon will be driving the 24 car. Can't imagine NASCAR without him. But am sure NASCAR will continue without him...
Today was the Superbowl of NASCAR...the biggest race of the season. The race everyone has been waiting for.
Jeff Gordon started the race on the pole with Jimmie Johnson starting besides him. Jeff Gordon had a fast car and led several laps on the opening of the race. First caution is for Landon Cassill as his engine or something broke. Second caution is for Matt Kenseth and Tony Stewart who hit the wall with heavy damage. On the restart Joey Logaono took the lead and Johnson second.
Jeff Gordon has led the most laps at Daytona in his career and at the moment...Gordon has led 84 laps with 92 laps to go. They are just getting ready for a restart from a debris caution. Johnson got penalized for his crew getting over the wall too early and Edwards along with few other drivers got caught for speeding on pit road. (Sorry...am trying to type this as the race goes to see if I can remember more. Let me know if this is better or not...) Gordon had gotten the lead back but has slid back and Dale Jr. took the lead to lead several laps and now Joey Logano is now back in lead.
We have 45 laps to go and they are on their final green flag pit stop and Logano is still in the lead. And now with 40 laps go go we are under caution because Brad Keselowski's car smoking up...a second caution due to engine failure. Jamie McMurray slid on Kesleowski's oil and went into the wall, Ryan Nemwan ran into the back of him. Gordon and a few drivers are pitting for fuel. Jimmie Johnson is now leading on the restart.
Jeff Gordon has clinched most laps led today.
Clint Bowyer has helped Carl Edwards past Jimmie Johnson after the restart.
And now caution number five for Ryan Blaney as his engine blows as well... and now Joey Logano is voicing similar problems as his teammate Brad Keselowski.
And now with seven to go, Joey Logano's car is still staying within and he is leading the race. Behind him cars are three wide. And with three to go Justin Allgaier and Ty Dillion get in an accident to bring on the yellow flag. And now they are red flagged as they are trying to clear the track of Allgaier's car off the track.
They restart with Logano in the lead and on the last lap, Austin Dillion got in the back of Jeff Gordon to cause a big wreck to bring out the yellow flag and end the race. Joey Logano has won his first Daytona 500.

Well...race one in the books. We are off to Atlanta next Sunday...perhaps Bo and Luke will be there. LOL

Another reason to love Chase. He has done great so far and am looking forward to seeing how far he will go this season. Still have a hard time accepting him in the 24 car, but other than that, that he is great. But I am sticking with Jimmie Johnson...the man of steel.  

His father is mentioned in "Undercover Dukes". He's one of the drivers racing in the NASCAR race and the announcer mentions him. Having a Dukes connection is all I need to pick him as a favorite.

I know, I know...I have to enjoy it while it lasts.  

I humbly bow to your awesome NASCAR knowledge. (until I take over first place then I'm going to tease you non-stop)
