Bard and Andy (oops)
Sorry, I hit the send button accidentally. Anyway, as a procurer of useless trivia, I thought it was fascinating that the guitar that Andy used on the show was the same guitar that he had carried in A Face in the Crowd movie. He mentions in the video with Brad that it was originally black, and that he very carefully sanded it down, then had it refinished and used it on TAGS. He said it was never played in the movie. Low and behold, when Brad visited Andy's house, he saw the guitar, and played a few sons on it too.

Unanswered Questions
I think these two are answered: 09) What really happened in the old Remshaw House? 08) Who was the nut that told Lee Drake the same story of Andy leaving town that Goober did? 09) What happened in the old Rimshaw house was alluded to in the episode. Otis and Black Jack (or whatever his name was) were running a still in the Old Rimshaw place. Apparently, they?concocted the haunting stories to keep people away.? 08) I think Lee Drake was referring to Goober ?when she said some nut told me you'd left Town. Goober had acted rather goofy in front of her..

RE: Lucky Penny
...In reference to trains 'A penny that has been run over by a train, IS LUCKY!... --- If you get than done to a penny yourself, just make sure you take it out of your pocket first.

Howard's mother
Ted I think Howard's mother got married. We know that she could let go of Howard when she danced the night away on one episode. It's ditto for me on Doug's number one thing of 'things he learned from the Andy Griffith Show'. I sooo get lost in the show when it's on and of course I have to come back to reality when trying to find something worth while to watch at other times.

penny
Trains run over pennies every day, I am sure. I even tried it in my Mayberry once. Not only a penny but a nickel as well. Never found either one! That train must have knocked them a country mile when it hit them. I checked around for about 50 feet in every direction and they were nowhere to be found. Guess they stuck to the wheel!!

re: #1
Mike as a grown woman I feel compelled to answer your # 1 question 01) Just what can you do with a grown woman? First you pick her up in your car (very important that it's clean). Take her to the various shops and bazaars of Mayberry (carry the packages). Then out to lunch (don't let the waitress squash her pie).? After which you will give your opinion on the dress with the red dot or the green stripe (be prepared to say they both look great).? Then to visit her mother.?? No doubt about, it's a fun day.? Remember to avoid saying you have her in your hip pocket! If you really want to impress her, take her out to Morrelli's. They've got one of those open kitchens so you can watch them pound the steak. If you feel like really puttin' on the dog, tip the gypsy violinist a quarter. Just be warned - they're kinda moody.

Andy's Guitar on TAGS
He mentions in the video with Brad that it was originally black, and that he very carefully sanded it down, then had it refinished and used it on TAGS. He said it was never played in the movie. One thing about Andy's refinished guitar, he did not have the pickguard put back. If you watch episodes, sometimes he plays a guitar with and one without (pickguard is put below the strings and sound hole to protect the wood face). The Martin D-18 Andy Griffith signature model has a pickguard, but it is clear plastic and gives the appearance of no pickguard - just like Andy's original model. http://www.mguitar.com/guitars/choosing/guitars.php?m=D-18%20Andy%20Griffithp=i Jeff ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

History in the making
I wonder if the writers, producers, actors/es's knew they were making an American icon..history when they were producing TAGS? Like Geore Washington crossing the Potomac, first man on the moon, Orville flying that plane, Thomas Edison ...etc and then . THEN .. THEN there was the TAGS crew. Were they thinking hmmm ; everything we write or think up will one day be written in a book, talked about on some future internet bulletin , there will be parades, festivals, merchandise galore etc... discussed to the point that even WE will be known by name ?
