Citizens arrest on Andy
No, not the episode with Gomer running around yelling citizens arrest , but the episode with Barneys Uniform. Andy is warning Fred Plummer about Barneys Judo experience. While he's doing this Andy is nonchantly eating grapes sitting out in front of the grocery store. I say Stop Thief, Citzens arrest ! I know, I shoudnt have mentioned it.

Curious Building In Mayberry
Has anyone else noticed that ,light colored, building behind the Taylor house?It appears at the beginning of Andys English Valet as Andy takes Aunt Bee to the bus station.Watch over their left shoulder.It shows up again at the end of Aunt Bees Brief Encounter as Bee talks to the fix it man about having her bread knife sharpened and her umbrella repaired.At first I thought it might be the furniture factory where Otis worked as a glue dipper,but there are no windows to vent those noxious glue fumes. Well, maybe Otis wasnt just high on 3.2. Lots Of Luck To You And Yours Joe Layton ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Mayberry Song
A pastor friend send me the lyrics to this song. I am not familiar with it at
all, but it is great.
She said it is recorded by the Rascal Flatts. Is anyone familiar with it?
Mayberry lyrics
Songwriters: Smith, Arlos Darrell;
Sometimes it feels like this world's spinning faster
Than it did in the old days
So naturally, we have more natural disasters
From the strain of a fast pace
Sunday was a day of rest
Now, it's one more day for progress
And we can't slow down
(And we can't slow down)
'Cause more is less
('Cause more is less)
It's all an endless process
I miss Mayberry
Sittin' on the porch drinkin' ice cold cherry coke
Where everything is black and white
(Nana nana nananananana)
Pickin' on the six string
People pass by and you call them by their first name
Watchin' the clouds roll by
Bye, bye
(Bye)
Sometimes I can hear this old earth shoutin'
Through the trees as the wind blows
That's when I climb up here on this mountain
To look through God's window
Now I can't fly
But I got two feet that get me high up here
Above the noise and city streets
My worries disappear
I miss Mayberry
Sittin' on the porch drinkin' ice cold cherry coke

]
Where everything is black and white
(Nana nana nananananana)
Pickin' on the six string
People pass by and you call them by their first name
Watchin' the clouds roll by
Bye, bye
(Bye)
Sometimes I dream I'm drivin' down an old dirt road
(Down an old dirt road)
Not even listed on a map
(Ooo, yea)
I pass a dad an' son carryin' a fishin' pole
But I always wake up every time I try to turn back
(Always wake up)
Now I miss Mayberry
Sittin' on the porch drinkin' ice cold cherry coke
Where everything is black and white
(Nana nana nananananana)
Pickin' on the six string
People pass by
And you call them by their first name
Watchin' the clouds roll by
Bye, bye
(Bye)
Bye, bye
(Bye, bye)

The Manicurist--her story
There is a new (not sure how new) biography out by Barbara Eden Since Barney has the copy checked out of the Mayberry Library I skimmed it last night at a bookstore. Sadly I did not see any reference to her stint as the Mayberry manicurist. She does mention working on I Love Lucy, and what a womanizer Desi Arnaz was..and what a true genuine friend Lucille Ball was (who appreciated her resiting Desi's advances). She also talked about how stressful it was on the set of I dream of Jeanie due to Larry Hagman's addictions and issues. It make me appreciate how calm and united the TAGS gang was (as we hear it). If your biggest issue is Francis being a bit of a loner at times..then alll is going pretty well. I think we've heard enough abou that Count Istvan Telecky tomato (I'm kidding). it reminds me of the Mr Mark Harney (Marconi) and Miss Ellie Mae (Miss Ellie may I say) discussions we have had in the past.Now if we could just solve the Ray Follister mystery The Untraind Voice Don't believe what you hear until you read it ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Andy's Near Death Experiences
I think Andy came very close to having a near death experience on several occasions. One was when Helen caught him with the Fun Girls in the courthouse and the other was when Helen was sitting behind Andy and Mavis Neft at the diner. You heard the old saying, If looks could kill. I think the vein was even sticking out on Helen's neck. Kenneth G.

Rascal Flatts' Mayberry
Yes, I am VERY familiar with this song! Rascal Flatts is a popular country group who must have a strong connection with TAGS. They record songs they really believe in, and it's worth a listen! It really hits home, talking about the good old days, when Sunday was a day of rest, and the value of small town living. Thanks for bringing it to our attention, Ken!

RE: WBMUTBB Digest, Vol 12, Issue 114
Barneys bullet was in the proximety of 10 to 15 degrees off the direct path to Andys position. I'll take a rude if'n I'm wrong but I believe the scene plays out as this - Andy tosses the rock through a break in the wall of the barn and hits a can (his target). The can is directly related to the location of where the mean ole criminal is sneaking up on Barney. When Barney is startled at the sound, he stands, turns, and draws his gun. He is facing and aiming towards the sound, not where Andy was positioned outside the barn. This act allowed Barney to have his gun drawn on the mean ole criminal. If Barney had arimed towards the hole in the wall where Andy was, it would have allowed the mean ole criminal to attack Barney from the side.

RE: TAGS is everywhere, even in Family Ties
Whodda thunk that Michael J. Fox would have a direct link to TAGS I just read in AARP's magazine - Yea, I'm over the hill - that he added the J. to his name in honor of our own cousin Virgil - Michael J. Pollard. In the immortal words of Johnny Carson, I have to say, I did not know that.

Odd duet
I heard a funny song on the radio just now, it was a duet between Johnny Cash and Barney Fife (sung by an impersonator). The lyrics contained several references from The Show, such as going to Mt. Pilot and dating Thelma Lou, and numerous references to old Johnny Cash songs, such as A Boy Named Sue, Walk the Line and Ring of Fire. Has anybody else heard this?

taking a car apart
Don't know if any of you get the car fixing column in the newspaper, Click and Clack, but they take questions on car maintenence and problems. In Sunday's paper a man wrote in and asked if he could easily disassemble a car for a play he was in. He said they need to have a car on the stage for each performance but then had to take it apart inbetween shows because of another play on the same stage. Anyway, he was advised not to do that. Way to complicated. Gilly, you don't run a car fast all the time, you drive her slow ever now and then. Bee in New Concord, OH Brenda J. Higgins Colonial Cottage 120 Arch Hill Rd.

My New Poem
What If? What if Sheriff Taylor Had worn a gun upon his hip? And what if Otis Campbell Had never taken a nip? What if Opie Taylor Had hair as black as coal? And what if Reverend Tucker Had never saved a soul? What if Aunt Bee Taylor Had made pickles that won first prize? And what if Gomer Pyle Had never worn purple and acorn ties? What if Floyd Larson, Had never joined a lonely hearts club? And what if Briscoe Darling Had never bathed in an old copper tub? What if Barney Fife, Had bullets in his gun? And what if Skippy and Daphne Had never came to Mayberry for fun? What if Ernest T Bass Had never thrown a rock? And what if Otis Campbell Had never spiked the crock? What if Helen Crump Had never gotten mad at Andy, And what if Goober Pyle Had never given Lydia candy? What if Hubcaps Lesch, Had never stolen a car? And what if Johnny Paul Had never told Opie about chewing tar? What if all these what ifs, Had never come to be? Well my friends, I'll tell you, Mayberry wouldn't be Mayberry. Kenneth G.
