Regarding:Floyd Walking

[tom kessel]

David you asked a very good question that  we all discussed some months ago
regarding the last time we saw Floyd aka Howard McNear acftuslly walk. the
debate is still out regarding Floyd in the kitchen as he prepares to take a
few gingerly steps forward til the camera calls out "cut" .Now here is where
i feel darn STUPID , some months ago i mentioned i saw a scene of Howard
McNear actually walking later, from a episode that now eludes me. going thru
150 messages where i mentioned Floyd in my search bar i gave up after 6
months. the best i can think of is possibly just possibly a scene in the
church where  i think i saw Floyd take one or two steps forward from the pue
as the camera cuts away. but i could very well be wrong. maybe he was merely
standin but if anyone saves the digest messages like i do and as more
patience than i to go thru each one, if you locate my "find" in a message on
Floyd walking elsewhere, please post it. i guess at my age im getting
senile. lastly from  Goobers Contest , everyone take note more than ever
(Like you already havent) of Howard McNears sad SLURRING of the words . the
stroke was in full force now . in the barbershoppe , Andy Taylor races in
seconds after Floyd learns he won $200.00. liston my friends to poor Floyds
weaken pronounication of "andy andy" its s faint and when Andy is racing
back out liston to Howard say struggling , "Andy hey Andy" liston to the
slur and the weaken voice, clearly Howard McNear was struggling to say
certain words. his voice was rapidly deteriorating. Note the obvious stunman
the double pulling up to buy gas. Its not Floyd on the long shot because the
double had a very thin "neck" Put your remote on pause and youll agree.
Goobers Contest is a benchmark in this classic series. It marks Howard
McNears exit but ah my friends what a  graceful memorable exit. some of his
best lines stems from this episode. Everyone was in fine form this time
around.Ill review Tvlands mini marathon on Sunday. Were into the final
season.This is Tom Kessel Col.Tims Protege Reject. aka Evan Thorpe
