2011 Hazzard Run - Cooter's Place
If you have a General Lee, or a Hazzard County patrol car, or Daisy's Jeep, or Cooter's tow truck or Uncle Jesse's pickup, Cooter wants YOU. And your Hazzard car, for the 3rd annual Hazzard Run, October 1st and 2nd. The deal is this: You pay $30 to participate, and you drive your car from Cooter's Place in Nashville TN to Cooter's Place in Gatlinburg TN, in a convoy. In return you get public adoration from spectators, a dash plaque, a t-shirt, and some amusements at Cooter's Place. Rick Hurst and Ben Jones will be attending. Great opportunity to hang out with other car owners and blow your own Dixie horn. Here's a spectator view supplied by one of our members last year: If you don't have a Hazzard car (don't feel bad, most people don't) you can still watch the cars parade into Gatlinburg and enjoy the car show, meet and greet Ben Jones and Rick Hurst, and hobnob around. There's no charge for gawking. For more info, click on one of the ad links we've got about Cooter's atop the Forums page or home page. Or call and give the store clerk somebody to talk to at 615-872-8358.

*after a few moments of thoughtful silence, agrees quietly* "I hope to nevah face such a day." *with this said, roams over to the area where Jack had thrown his pistol earlier, and with a nudge of a boot, finds it. Picks it up and hands it over, handle-first. There's no longer a lack of trust, and realizing this, makes a decision* "Jack...if you're thinkin' of makin' a fresh start...Hazzard County is a good place to heal."

Signs of Hazzard
As always, you got a great eye for details, Hoss. Nice work! Have you ever tried any of the Hogg product logos? There were "Hoggoco" gasoline pumps at Cooter's in at least one episode. Also, Boss came up with oddball products once in awhile, but I can't remember if I saw sample products in any eps.

(this round robin story began in 2007 and I recently promised to finish it. Sorry for the delay of months at a time between posts.) "No...and neither are you." *looks the officer in the eye* "All this is kinda ironic, when ya think about it. 'Cause now you know how I felt that day in Atlanta when you were about to gun me down. I wasn't evah lookin' to turn the tables, Jack, but I think that's what happened heah. I suppose, in a way, we're even."

We've got a tug-of-war going on between country and 80's pop/rock! All good stuff. I'll tug it back to the 80's with the Romantics.

10 Years to the Day
I was on my way to work, traveling on a major interstate towards Chicago. I had a CD playing in my car and didn't realize anything was wrong unitl there was sudden, massive gridlock on the interstate. I turned on the radio for the traffic report and then got the news about the plane hitting the WTC. My employer at the time was an attorney who did medical collections. I'll never forget his reaction. "Get on the phone and make calls. Do your job." The world, as we knew it, was shaken but his concern was for collecting money. Business as usual. Everybody in the office was upset and kept running out to their cars to listen to the radio, or were calling somebody to get news updates. Nobody could concentrate. I remember that the phones eventually stopped working. "All circuits are busy," said the recording. My own perception of the world changed forever that day. I will always remember the heroism of those who fell in the attempt to rescue others. I will always remember the uncommon courage of the men and women who faced that day at ground zero and on flight 93. I will always remember as well, how the world wept with us, shared our shock and grief. And as much as some things have changed since that day...much has been preserved. To all those who serve our nation in uniform, thank you. To those nations who have stood by our side, thank you.

ebay find of the week
Here's a combination of a Dukes of Hazzard bed cover, sheet, and sleeping bag. By the photos these look to be in great shape. You could be the envy of your college dorm with these. Also great as couch covers. Though these are in such good shape you might want to avoid the wear and tear and simply hoard them. At the time of this post the auction was running for about 4 more days. Dukes of Hazzard bed set and sleeping bag

Boar's Nest Directory (and cheesecake pics)
Thought you'd enjoy that one! And now, here's something for those who are just hanging around for cheesecake photos. In this picture, I'm not sure if Daisy is climbing into her car head-first, or if she's looking for spare change, or what. Mind you, her car doors opened, so there's no excuse for this pose other than for the ratings boost.
