I use cruise control when I'm on an interstate for more than 10 miles. Hopefully I will pay attention when speeds may change.
My friends have been making the usual Beverly Hillbilly jokes. I was close to taking my truck out to California. It gets about 20 miles per gallon so it wouldn't have been that bad. The opportunity to take a new car was just too tempting.

Well, the destination for Mr. Clampett may be closer; I think Oak Park is in the Thousand Oaks area, which isn't all that far from Beverly (Hills, that is).bloke wrote:Chuck(G) wrote:You may actually be the one who is confused.

I don't know where the heck the McCoys put down roots, maybe in the Big Valley:

Lots of interesting trivia with the Hillbillies:
Max Baer, who played Jethro, is the son of the guy who fought Max Schmelling in 1933 at Yankee Stadium.
Buddy Ebsen was originally cast as the Tin Man in the 1939 classic The Wizard of Oz. He recorded all his songs, went through all the rehearsals, and started filming with the rest of the cast. He was rushed to the hospital nine days after filming began, when his lungs seized after a week of inhaling aluminum dust from the dangerously experimental "tin" makeup. While Ebsen was in the hospital for two weeks, recovering from a near-fatal allergic reaction to the dust, he was silently replaced by Jack Haley. Haley didn't run the same risk, as the makeup was changed in the meantime from a dust to a paste.
