Straightening the Curves

There are days that you wake up and all the world has changed.

I just discovered a moment ago that there was a cartoon series of the "Dukes of Hazzard".
I'm pretty sure it wasn't shown in the UK otherwise or I would be totally on board.
That joyful (live action) series that ran for 128 episodes. Some of us endured when the series when Bo and Luke were replaced by Coy and Vance before their triumphant return after contractual negotiations concluded.
It was not lost on me a few years ago when I walked into a bar in Juneau Alaska - the Red Dog Saloon, since you ask -  and a pianoman was playing The  Good Old Boys...as I entered

I remember the day my Dad came in as I  was recording that very theme on my Currys C90 and made a noise after the pressing of Record and Play.
Still hurts....still hurts.

Sometimes I think I am still in that living room.
