RE: Fred Simpson
I always thought it was interesting that they brought back the actor who played Trey Bowden to play Fred Simpson. Who knew Trey would grow up to be so self-centered, even changing his name! -- Message: 3 Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2016 17:24:23 -0400 From: Harriet BrowderTo: wbmutbb Subject: RE: Fred Simpson Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > he also played Fred Simpson on an episode of "Make Room for Daddy". Fred Simpson was also the name (not the actor) of the boy that Mary Alice Carter accepted a date from, after she already accepted going to the dance with Opie. Don't you just hate fickle girls? At least she learned her lesson and left the dance with the right boy. And that's the last we hear of Fred Simpson in Mayberry...

"Andy and Don" book
Just finished reading the new book. It was very good. There is nothing in it about Andy being abusive to Don at all. It treats both of them with respect, pointing out that yes, they had flaws, but all in all had a deep and abiding friendship that helped produce one of the great TV shows of all time. I highly recommend it. Houston ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Favorite color episodes
Was watching the color episodes where Andy, Aunt Bee and Opie go to Hollywood and was wondering what the favorite color episodes were for people on this group. The Hollywood ones are my favorite. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Not sowee, but Zowee
I think Helen is actually saying Zowee, which is used to signify you are excited about something, but she is saying it really slow and sarcastically, to convey the opposite.

Sarcasm, saying 'sorry' but not actually apologising, mocking. Note- Said in high-pitched voice, long, drawn out: ' Sowwy', can be accompanied with hand-gesture. Gesture: Waggle forefinger and middle finger together, keeping fist and hand curled up near chin. Waggle fingers in direction of person you are 'Sowwee-ing'.

Question on Neal Brower's book
Hi all, I was reading Mayberry 101 again and remembered that it says it is the first book of a planned three-part series. What happened to the other two books? Did they ever come out? The first one is great. Thanks for any answers! Houston ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
