September 24, 200520 yr I have noticed postings on this forum about recurring dreams of being chased...by Rosco P. Coltraine. I have dreamed many times about the Dukes, and after studying the phenomena, have discovered the cause.We often dream of being chased. This happens to many people. Duke fans associate being chased with the General Lee, automatically. Therefore, it is not likely that Duke fans can dream of being chased without dreaming of the Dukes.My first dream of this sort began by me being chased by a great flying beast of some sort. After a way down the road, however, the beast turned into Rosco, and I was in a car. I was eventually caught and had to outsmart Boss Hogg to let me go. After that I went out the the General Lee where the Dukes were waiting for me. I realized at that moment that I was one of the Dukes, and have dreamed of it ever since. Is it just the association, or are the Dukes really reaching out to us in our subconcious dreams? Is that Hazzard's hospitality, letting us be a part of a world we love so much.
September 25, 200520 yr Awright, group therapy!! Here we go.Your subconcious mind naturally brings up things, places and people that you spend a lot of your wakin' hours on. For example, I dream about my day gig a lot. Sad but true. But, I offset dread responsibility with intense goofin' around in all that is Hazzard. So I've had car-chase dreams too. And if I'm working on a fanfic for months on end, it's not unusual for a scene to end up in a dream - messed up and weird, but recognizable. Beware of dreamin' about those General Lee jumps, though. Ever dream that you're falling? Imagine dreaming about falling with a car, with the nose pointed down, and the car is starting to flip over on it's roof. I think that one was a "9" on the cardiac-to-wake-up-to scale. Yeeeek!!Brian
September 26, 200520 yr Wished I had dreams 'bout the Dukes.I'm watching episodes and wrighting fanfic's late al the time, but no dreams though.To bad! Guess my life just ain't that exciting I can't relate anything with being chased. (LOL)On the other hand, maybe it's for the better, cause I woul'd never wanna wake-up if I did. Lov, JM
September 28, 200520 yr Thanks for the therapy ya'll. It's good to know that I ain't the only one dreamin' these wonderful dreams. My friends tell me it's because I've gone past obsessive to fanatical. I guess it's all part of being a fan.
September 29, 200520 yr Author It is a great part of being a Duke fan. My own Duke dreams have been vivid enough that I can remember the taste of Boss Hogg's moonshine, and the feel of being behind the wheel of the General.
September 29, 200520 yr When I have dreams of the Dukes, the only charachter I see in every scene is Daisy. That, of course, is why I must do laundry as soon as I wake up. Sorry. Had to say it.
October 4, 200520 yr I had a really cool dream last night, I dreamt that I was new to Hazzard and Bo showed me around and I stayed at the Duke farm, then I was in the General Lee with Bo and Luke while Rosco was in "Hot Persuit" of us and we jumped the lake!! It was a really good dream!!!
