Turned to crime
I was watching Dragnet this morning on MeTV. Good old Burt Mustin was playing a cat burglar. Looks like he has gone to seed, turning to a life of crime! -Greg, from Mayberry of the North ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
Guest Star on Gomer Pyle
This evening on Gomer Pyle, Parley Baer guest stared as a Congressman, can inspecting the Marine Base where Gomer serves.The congressman asked where Gomer was from, and Gomer said "I grew up on a farm just outside and itty bitty town called Mayberry." The congressman replied "I've heard of Mayberry, that's in my district. You are my constituent!"It's good to know that he knew where Mayberry was located. But he made no mention of having served as the mayor before moving upward to congressman.-Greg from Mayberry of the North ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/

Regulatory Compliance
In this day and age, someone as detail-oriented as Barney would have had all those containers closed, and properly labeled.

She has always loved a law enforcement officer....

Up and Down (and Over)
Where I grew up, in a small town in South Dakota that was very similar to Mayberry, "Up and Down" was used only to describe direction. Think of a globe.."Up" meant traveling north, while "Down" meant traveling south. "Over" was a bit more unclear..as it was used to indicate traveling east OR west..as in "we are heading over to Myers Lake." All of these had nothing to do with the size of the town, or its importance in the region.

Spam?
In yesterday's Digest, I saw a posting that said:Today's Topics: 1. {Spam?} Great Offer (Hyacinth)Two thoughts:1) I don't remember anyone in Mayberry ever eating Spam or bologna, or any other processed meats like that. They were always enjoying healthy home cooked meals, or left-overs. . Do you recall anything else?2) I was kind of excited about a great offer for free Spam, as a loyal TAGS watcher from the great state of Minnesota, where 432,000 cans of Spam are produced each and every day!ThanksGreg - City Council ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
Colors - school, band, etc
My small school mascot was the "Cardinals"...so our colors were red and white. They later switched to red and gold. Our band colors were always black and white. Similar to Ken, I suspect that was to differentiate the town band from the school. Greg Chaska MN: Mayberry of the North ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/

Mavis Neff
My wife and I were watching Match Game this past weekend. WhenI looked up Elaine Joyce on Google, to see what else she had done, I was surprised to see TAGS mentioned. I dont seem to recall Mavis Neff, from The Authoress episode. I also can't find a picture of her in that roll on-line. What can y'all share with me?
