“Maybe we should try communicating on the cb first,†*Jesse suggests, he reiterates* “Communicating on the cb first.†*Someone else comes into the police station* “Hey Lex,†*Daisy greets Cletus’s pretty sister. She notices the man that Danielle, Julie and others have spoken about.*

*After hearing MaryAnne reply through the cb grapevine, Jesse places his hand on Julie's back.* "It may not have been recent." *He suggests and pats her back.* "I know it's hard to wait, *He pats her back again* "If anyone can get information out of Enos or Cletus, it's Daisy." Balladeer: If Jack doesn't have enough for bail, I'm thinking some of the town folk might just assist him...

Alex, please don't offer Lt. Jack any ideas! Although, you are trying to win the contest in A Few Good Bad Guys...

Good list, Roger. Except for the occasional updating software or server glitch, Hazzardnet is available - day or night, holidays. My favorite part is the surprise of not knowing who else may be roaming around on the next visit. Daney

Aren't they still busy in the broadway production of "My Fair Lady?" Maybe instead of dragging this matter out further, we can encourage Brian to finish a story for the Dog Collar Challenge. And then nominate him for a pulizter prize because he's my favorite favorite author in the whole wide world next to you Deputy.

*Luke glances at Bo* “Is Dr. Walker’s office open?†“I don’t know,†*the blond replies* “Why?†*He inquires* “You two could use vision and hearing exams,†*Luke grins* “No one was shot at…†“Well-†*Bo starts. Jesse approaches the General Lee and stares pass his boys at Julie. All sorts of speculation had run through the elder Duke’s mind about why this city fella was after Brian.* “I’d hate to have to see Rosco or MaryAnne arrest their cousin because of my kin,†*Jesse speaks calmly.* “We will get involved if someone makes a verbal request.†*He looks up the road at his two older nieces driving toward town.* “Hey, maybe we should all hang out at the garage?†*Bo suggests* “Yeah,†*Luke agrees* “Cooter might even have some work for y’all,†*Jesse laughs. He winks at Julie.* "You can get yer car back sooner."

Any futhur details on these two events yet?

*Twenty minutes later, that automobile is now parked next to Dixie on the old schoolhouse grounds. Two brown haired women are standing by the building in discussion. The one having made a phone call, rather than drive to the city. Daisy had been on her way back from an errand when she saw her cousin driving toward the property.* “We should probably go see if there any updates.†*Daisy suggests* “Ok.†*her cousin agrees*

Balladeer: It's good thing Alex isn't making a bet on Diablo even being in town at the moment.

*Approaching the location the Dukes had told him about, the town mechanic wasn’t sure what to expect. Cooter was relieved and amused as the wrecker came to a stop on the road. A safe distance from the two men but close enough for them to hear a greeting. The town mechanic leaned his head out the open window of the tow truck and shouted* “Hey Brian, Alex… it’s good to see you.â€

Thank you!

The boys were still listening to Julie talk about the upcoming race when another vehicle casually passed it on the road. The driver had decided a trip to Atlanta was in order to find out more about Jack Morrison.

*has wandered back into the police station. Goes over to where Enos is closing a file cabinet drawer.* "Is there any aspirin in there?" "Might be some in Boss's office," *Enos replies* "All right," *looks at the older deputy* "Is that lieutenant rogue?" "Don't think so," *Enos glances to the scene that Lex is watching.* "Possum on a gum bush..."

Roman Polanski once said "What's horror to you, may not be horror to me." That might not be the exact quote, pretty close. A Hazzardnet moderator/ adminstrator commented on this thread - posts #21 & #44.

Happy early New Year's greetings to everyone!

Thank you Julie and Garrett.

I think you should finish it and if it takes time for that, it's ok.

Deleting or moving this thread serves no purpose. One thread/ poster on a message board does not define a website, the forums of Hazzardnet are one section of Hazzardnet.com. I voted to leave the topic as is. I took into consideration that Catherine Bach appeared in a 1970s movie titled Nicole. It featured nudity and intimate moments between female characters.

Secret Santa Challenge Short Story – 1500 words or less Main character: Enos Other characters: Rosco and Mrs. Berry Spoiler: Enos's first Christmas working as a Hazzard County police officer. EMS: Holiday Heart Enos had read the new notes written in a case file several times since he had started his shift. The original investigation had occurred during the second week of him being on the Hazzard County police force. Last night, someone tried to rob a gas station on Blossom Road during the time Enos and Rosco were both on shift. When they got back to the station, the deputy had needed to get off duty or risk having the county commissioner call Enos into his office about overtime. After getting the prisoner booked and secured in a cell, Rosco went through a few cabinets worth of folders before he found the necessary folder. An item in the suspect’s possession had reminded him of a specific case. By the time Enos had arrived for work, his commanding officer had finished the new case details. Enos wanted to make sure he had all of those correct. He didn’t want to give an incorrect update to the victim’s relatives. He just felt like he should do that in person instead of over the telephone. The deputy wouldn’t be able to give them all of the details, enough to know that a person was in custody. Rosco came into work an hour before he was supposed to be on duty. The police department had a few light sets, garland and a wreath to make the place look festive. Enos was fidgeting with the wreath. “It’s only gonna be up until this evening probably.†Rosco said quietly to announce his presence. The deputy turned and looked at the Sheriff. His lips parted into a slightly crooked grin. “Hey Sheriff, I know – haven’t had any calls.†“That’s good,†Rosco replied. He didn’t mind if it was a busy day, it was nice to have time where they could attend to other duties. There was more to being a police officer than citations and patrol. “Are you sure you don’t want to give the Berrys the update?†Enos asked. “I don’t mind at all,†Rosco smiled. “I think you’ll do just fine.†“Yeah,†the deputy raised his right hand and brushed the hair off his forehead. “Should I change out of my uniform?†“You can stay in uniform,†Rosco answered. “Otherwise I might get a call about an unauthorized person driving a patrol car…†Enos laughed for a moment. The Sheriff had a way with words and getting him not to be so nervous. Rosco was glad to hear the deputy laugh. “If you want to take the case file with you…†He began to offer. “That’s ok,†Enos paused. “Did you get some new cologne for Christmas?†“Um hum,†Rosco said. “Does it smell alright?†Enos nodded, some hair fell back on his forehead with the movement. “It’s nice.†“Yeah,†Rosco agreed. “I best be going,†Enos said. “Merry Christmas, Sheriff.†“Merry Christmas, Enos.†Rosco replied and walked toward his office. Enos got his jacket. He put it on as he walked out of the police station and to the patrol car. The Berrys lived about fifteen minutes from town limits. He got into the police cruiser and fastened the seat belt before putting the key in the ignition. He thought about the case one last time on the drive to the Berry residence. There were a few other residences like it along the dirt road Enos drove on. He slowed the patrol car down, thankful he had been here before. Had made it easier to find. He carefully turned onto a wide patch of the yard, as there was no driveway. The deputy saw a figure at the window, as he put the gear shift in park and turned the ignition key off. He took the keys and placed them on the dashboard. Then unfastened his seatbelt and opened the car door. He grabbed the keys and got out of the car. He put the keys in his jacket pocket and shut the car door. He walked up to the house and raised his hand to knock on the door. The figure from the window opened it just enough, Enos could partly see the elderly african american woman’s face. “Mrs. Berry?†He asked. “Yes, officer.†She replied. “I have an update about Logan’s case,†He said. The door opened to about halfway before the woman spoke. “Would you like to come in?†The deputy smiled. “Yes, ma’am.†She stepped away from the door as Enos stepped inside. He glanced into the room, shut the door behind him. “Last evening, the Sheriff and I captured a man who tried to rob a gas station.†He paused. “We have a few items that need examined by the state lab, we believe the suspect is responsible for what happened to your grandson.†“I-†tears moistened Mrs. Berry’s eyelashes and she tried not to cry. Enos removed a handkerchief from his jacket pocket. “Ma’am…†She gingerly took the handkerchief. “I’m sure you understand I didn’t think a suspect would be found.†She began to dab the handkerchief at a cheek. “And you taking the time from your family…†“It’s ok,†Enos smiled. “Mrs. Berry, the suspect had a few items of Logan’s. I wasn’t able to bring them today, as they are evidence. After the trial or a plea arrangement, you can choose to have them back.†Mrs. Berry smiled. Caroline remembered the list of items she reported that Logan may have had on him. “He wanted to be an artist, would you like to see a few pieces I have?†“Yes, ma’am.†Enos said. He followed her over to a corner of the room. A few paint brushes, sketch paper and paint tubes lay on a small table. On the walls above were four pictures. One was of Logan. A charcoal nature scene. The nature scene in paint. The fourth had a title Holiday Heart – a family in the kitchen. “They’re really nice,†Enos stated. “So detailed.†“Yeah,†she answered. “How long will it be for the trial?†Caroline asked. “Soon as we know, I will come out and let you know.†Enos replied. “Ok,†Caroline looked at Enos. “I need to get ready for supper at a relative’s.†“Would you like me to drive you?†He inquired. She looked at him. “It’s not that far, the house just before this one.†She responded and walked toward the front door. Enos followed her. “I’m sorry if I made you late.†“You didn’t-†Caroline reached a hand up and gently squeezed the young man’s shoulder. “They’re going to be so surprised with the news about Logan’s case.†Enos smiled. “I’m glad there was news to share, Merry Christmas Mrs. Berry.†He said, her hand went from his shoulder to the door knob. “Merry Christmas,†Mrs. Berry started to open the door. “Officer Strate was it?†“You can call me Enos if you like ma’am,†he replied. Mrs. Berry was still smiling as the officer went outside to his vehicle. She watched from the window and waved to him. She saw him wave back. And then the patrol car left the yard and began to travel on the dirt road. A light snow began to fall when Enos arrived at his folks place about ten minutes later. He parked the patrol car and then walked inside. The Christmas tree lights were on, presents still stacked around the base. He left his jacket on and moved quietly toward the kitchen, where food and family were waiting for officer Enos Michael Strate. ©December 2007
