Skoal
Why does Otis say Skoal as Mayor Stoner gets...well, stoned (on alcohol, that is!)? Skoal is a Scandinavian word used as a toast when drinking, similar to saying, To your health or some such thing.

Leon's parents
OK...this is preying on my mind. Leon ( ron howard's real life brother ), is often seeing roaming around Mayberry eating his sandwich. Where are his parents? Perhaps Leon's parents operate one of the downtown businesses. (Maybe the diner or snack shop, which would explain their ability to keep Leon supplied with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.) Because they are busy running the business and because Mayberry is a safe place to let your kids run around, they allow him to stroll up and down Main Street to give him something to do. That's where we usually see him. Thelma Lou (Janet) ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

I like ol Ben, but watch him in church the next time we sing, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms. He just moves his lips.

Leon's Wanderings
Growing up in a small town I can identify with Leon. I had virtually no restrictions as to where I could go in our town. I would say the same thing was true for most of my friends. We were free to wander around town exploring all the fascinating things a young boy's curiosity opened. I think most of the people in town knew who I was. I would go into the drug store and grocery store and get a five cent cone and we would take our wagon down to the dump to look for treasures. We often played in Rau's Woods and fished at the old Mill Pond. I doubt if my parents knew where I was most times, but they knew that wherever I was someone was watching out for me. Night time was especially a time of adventure and we would often find ourselves at the cemetery or down by the railroad tracks playing in the boxcars. We were not neglected kids at all, just fortunate kids who grew up in a quiet little town where everyone was a neighbor or friend. A siren did blow at nine o'clock which indicated it was time to head for home. Friday nights meant a free movie shown on the feedstore wall. Wading in the creeks usually meant a few bloodsuckers on our feet, but that was all just part of the adventure. If you watched Leave it to Beaver you would see Beaver wandering all over town with his friend Larry and his parents very seldom were concerned. Even getting home an hour late after school didn't alarm anyone. I am so thankful that I grew up when I did. The memories I have are so precious and I experienced so many great things that today's kids will never experience. I wouldn't trade my old rusty bike and AM radio for all the IPods, Game Boys, Computers, or Video Games in the world.

Otis' Skoal
Hi I don't think it's spelled that-a-way, but I don't know how to spell it either. It's the Russian (I think) version of 'bottoms up', cheers, here's mud in your eye, etc. Karen _ http://liveearth.msn.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
HI all
Hi fellow mayberrians, My computer had a bad virus and now I'm back with a new computer. Thank you for the warnings on buying dvds from other companies . I guess, not everyone is as nice or honest as our group is. Little Leon walking around w/ a sandwhich looking as cute as could be... w/o parents. I'd like to think it was ok for him to walk around without a care in the world in a heavenly location like Mayberry. Instead of lack of being watched maybe knowing everyone was keeping an eye on him rather then walking all about alone. That has to make everyone smile..knowing he had 45 caregivers then zero. What would ol man flint say? Erin, Mayberry's best crossing guard - Need a vacation? Get great deals to amazing places on Yahoo!

Re: WBMUTBB Digest, Vol 8, Issue 212
Maybe they know the guy who hired Aunt Bee at the print shop. Sounds like those counterfeiters are keeping up with technology! I guess they had to do something after they got out of jail after getting nailed by Andy and Warren. Or maybe they pulled the old switcheroo like Andy and Barney in the Pickle episode.
