Andy Impersonator
I am reading a mystery Dying to Read and a man is trying to find his ex-girlfriend by pretending to be an old uncle who has an inheritance for her. In order to hire a private detective he disguises his voice to sound like Andy Griffith from Mayberry. Do you know what that is? That is falsifying. And you know why he is doing that? Because he is rotten. I hope they catch him and inarculate him where he can be rehabilitated by making baskets and such. Wonder if he knows that once that jail door closes he will no longer have any peanut butter sandwiches. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Andy's Home
Hey, Mayberry friends. All the talk about Andy's old home being demolished brought this to my mind. I posted this before but it's been 3-4 yrs. ago so maybe our newer members may enjoy reading this. We spent a week at NC's Outer Banks on a summer vacation in 2009, and it's a great place to visit. The beautiful waterfront, all the historical sights, and seeing 'The Lost Colony' at the Waterside Theater (one time Andy actually played there), was well worth the trip. While visiting the Old Fort Raleigh and museum, I walked up to some of the caretakers there and casually asked if they knew where Andy lived. They told me 'sure,we'll tell you, but remember that Andy is a very private man'. I rode by his home (it's not visible from the highway), saw his driveway, fence and gate. But not being an 'interloper' I wouldn't dare approach it. Just being close to where he lives was enough for this Mayberry 'nut'. Anyway, it was a great experience. We're planning on being at 'Mayberry Comes to Westminster, SC' in April, Mayberry Night in Troy,NC' in August, and 'Mayberry Days' in Mount Airy, NC (the biggie!) in September. I just can't get enough of this Mayberry stuff! Many thanks to Allan Newsome for the daily digest that keeps my 'Mayberry fix' under control, and thanks to all the contributors that keep the digest so interesting. Larry in Lincolnton Everything is OK in Mayberry...Floyd. Just one more thing: Many thanks to the folks at the Surry Arts Council for sending me an autographed photo of Betty Lynn. It will always have a prominent place in my living room. Larry in Lincolnton ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Barney Being Right and Manning Up
While we all love Barney, we do make a good bit of sport of him, and for good reason. But I put my bucket on and got to thinking that Barney the Beast really is worthy of our respect as a legitimate law officer. He was right on lots of occasions. For example, he was right that the Mayberry Security Bank was ripe for being robbed. He was right to ticket the governor's car. Barney also manned up when it was called for. He got rid of those farmers selling produce by the side of the road. He insisted on going with Andy to go after the escapee who'd previously threatened him. What are some other examples of Barney being right or manning up? I think ol' Thel really did get a prize. She's the cats, and he is too.

Scrubs
Has anyone seen the episode of Scrubs where there is an constantly upbeat psychologist at the hospital and at one point as she is walking through the hospital she starts whistling the TAGS theme and the people she passes join her? If I had that on my alarm clock, I would probably whistle it all day. Elizabeth in Ga. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Re: WBMUTBB Digest, Vol 14, Issue 92
I continue to look for the picture of the young Frances Bavier on the wall of the Taylor's living room and can't find it. Can someone tell me where it is located? It's driving me bonkers.

Apostrophes
I couldn't agree with Ken more. I pass by a multi-million dollar home in travels to Target and it has changed owners several times. The recent owner has a sign outside with a picture of a video camera that says, your on camera . I chuckle everytime I pass by it. I will never make enough money to live in a home like that ( who would want to clean that thing) but I sure am glad I got some smarts!

Wake Up Call and Apostrophes etc.
Hello All About those pesky apostrophes, I really am concerned. I see them misused or not used a lot. I spent a lot of time in school learning about these things. And, I have studied this problem for awhile now. I think most of the problem is that it is overlooked in lessons now or a typo. Sometimes even auto corrector messes it up. And, sometimes it is just a mistake. As a college instructor grading final projects, if there is a formal paper, I think this needs to be attended to and done right. As for a wake up call, I get up about 430 every morning. Sometimes, I take a mid morning nap before my early afternoon nap, but I use The Andy Griffith Show Theme as the alarm. While it wake you up, wide awake, I just feel good knowing I will have a Mayberry Day. The Bed Jacket episode is such a sweet episode. It really showed how Andy felt about Aunt Bee. Nowadays we don't worry about gloves, hats, purses, nor bed jackets. But, there was a time when they were considered. When I went to the hospital to have wisdom teeth removed in 1976, Mama insisted I have a bed jacket to wear in the hospital bed to greet visitors. This was not to be confused with the robe I was to wear when I went to the restroom. Even as far back as then, Mama had trouble finding one. But, she found it. I greeted my visitors appropriately dressed. While my mama was in her last days, I made sure, as visitors came to call she had her bed jacket on. I know it meant something to her. That's what counted. I miss wearing white gloves or pearled gloves to church on Sunday. I have carpal tunnel and sometimes my hands are just cold. I wear fingerless gloves for that and knitted gloves to match my coat when I can. I guess I am just old fashioned that way. And seeing Aunt Bee bounce on that piano stool and rip the piano apart white Toot toot tootsie is always a way to make my day. There's Marshall Dillion, where's Chester?

Het Up
Thursday on the Western Channel I was watching Gunsmoke. Matt was talking to one of the storekeepers, and the storekeeper told Matt not to get all het up. But since I am about half deaf, I always have the closed caption on, and the closed captions printed out get all head up... Orville Hendricks - Mount Pilot Butter and Egg Man. In the twilight of my long life, it has been many years since either Martha or myself got het up. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
