Bookworm: a Game
Even playing an online game like Bookworm http://www.popcap.com/games/bookworm/pc will remind me of Mayberry. I found the word jailed that put me to mind of Andy Barney. The word toot reminded me of poor Aunt Bee singing Toot Toot Tootsie, I even made pickle fudge )Aunt Bee Thelma Lou), but but the one word I found that'll always be Mayberry to me is uvula. Afer all, Iive got a uvula, you've got a uvula, all God's children have a uvula. Now if I could only find medulla or oblongata *sigh*. Helen would enjoy this game; Goober Gomer not so much.

Re: Hey Folks....I'm working on something special
Allan, I really really really want to join the new website, but I am concerned about having to enter my entire birth date on an unsecured website in order to be able to join. There are a lot of dishonest people out there who try to steal people's identities and birth date is one of the pieces of information they need to do that. I am not talking about you being dishonestyou are one of the most honest people I know...but websites can be hacked. Can the birth date either be removed or be made an optional entry on the sign up screen?

Hey Sue, I understand your concern and I'm sorry but no, There is a legal requirement to make sure that persons under 13 years of age be handled differently than normal. (i.e. they must be protected differently) Because of that legal requirement, I don't have any choice about the birth date requirement. You can hide, and by default that's the selection, your entire birthday from everyone on the site. I can't quickly address your concerns about identity theft because that is a valid concern but in order to be a part of much of what happens online, folks will have to make that decision for themselves. I have so much information out on the web that I really have no expectation of safety so I've gone out and found other ways to protect myself. (I use LifeLock) I certainly understand trying to stay safe and continue to do my best to keep visitors to my web sites information safe as well. Each person will need to make their own decision and I completely understand. That said, I hope most of you will choose to join in with us and accept the small risk. --Allan http://iMayberryCommunity.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Re: WBMUTBB Digest, Vol 12, Issue 385
Regarding the concern about putting your birth date into the iMayberry Community page, I justed used an obviously false date. I don't think it makes any difference and Allan knows I'm not 86 years old. :) Scott Dud Johnson ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
uvula
Mayberrily Marie, the word uvula comes up often in crossword puzzles and of course I always think of Barney and the choir too at that time! This is a prime example of interesting facts we picked up while watching TAGS. Aunt Bee of Orlando ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

more trivia
In yesterday's USA Today puzzle, the clue was Lewis Carroll's Boojum. Never heard this anywhere else but TAGS and the answer was Snark after all! Found out it was from one of his poems about snarks, a fictional creature. Don't know about Grovely Barch or Brillen Trant though! Does anybody know these names other than the spirits Andy invoked?

Birthdates
Regarding birthdate security, now I don't want to encourage dishonesty but what I usually do is just make up a birthdate and enter that. I usually make it a totally different year and month and date. Now I know that I am falsifying and there is probably a number violation for that, but that's what I do. Now you see why I am really a RFD guy.
