I was watching the Marx Brothers 1933 movie Duck Soup and was a bit startled
when I saw them doing the disconnected motorcycle/sidecar stunt. I knew I had
seen Andy and Barney do it but now wondering if anyone on screen had done it
previous to the Marx Brothers.

Folks, I have some awful news for you. Remember in the episode Barney's
Sidecar when Aunt Bee suggested they string some wire across the road so
when Barney would come flying by , WHOOSH. Well you get the picture. While
I was setting up my Mayberry Christmas Village tonight I accidently
In addition to the point you made about Ms Crump calling Opie up in front of
everyone to tell him about her error. I always wondered why she left it up to
him to tell Andy about it. Seems to me that should have been her
responsibility.

A Barney Fife, Man Undercover (or some

Allan,
You have provided so many with their connection to what some of us just take
for granted sometime. There are many who can make it to the Mayberry events we
have done across the country but for those who can't or haven't had the
opportunity to do so, you have provided that for them.
Andy says, Barney, I've never lied to you before and I'm not lying now. Off
the top of my head I can remember a couple of times Andy lied to Barney. He
lied
about the microphone in Barney joins the choir and he lied about he and Helen
being trapped in the cave rescue.
Since Barney and the
I second that - thanks so much Allan for all of your hard work!
Let's see...after 19 years, do you get the stainless steel wrist watch with the
number 19 on the back? :-)
Stainless steel...wow!

I'm glad I'm not the only one to use the line, Sure, Mike Sure. That is my
standard line when someone tries to convince me of something! 99 times out of
a 100, they have no clue what I am talking about. I'm glad you folks do!!
And on your questions, it would have been good to make the
The only thing about the Mayberry/Hooterville crossover is, those 2 shows took
totally different approaches. Green Acres was kind of the anti-Andy Griffith
Show. Andy and other cast members always make the point that TAGS wasn't about
jokes, it was about developing characters and the love
Maybe everyone knows this anyway, but in 2006, Gene Roddenberry ( creator of
Star Trek ), said that his first choice to play Spock was George Lindsey!
George turned it down.
Alsosomeone had mentioned about Goober saying he fished at the Warrior
River. George is from Jasper, Alabama and
Floyd was not handicapped. Howard McNear was (after season three), but Floyd
never was.

I mean, it isn't like everyone did not know Floyd was handicapped, the
producers of the show were not fooling anyone.

Andy lied to Barney when he told him there was a horse in the backyard.
I know almost everyone has seen the GEICO commercial with Honest Abe and Mary
Todd Lincoln. Funny! But that just goes to prove the point that sometimes
honesty is not the best policy.

I am happy to report that old Eagle Eye Linda was able to find Aunt Bee's
head and we were able to successfully reattach it. With the help of a
little glue of course. So other than a little kink in the neck and a little
excess dried glue she is as fit as a fiddle.
Now look Andy. Old Hugo
Hey, Mayberry friends. With all this talk about the Governor's car, I'm trying
to figure out his license plate numbers. I'm glad he has hired hands to
remember it 'cause I can't even read it. Tell us your thoughts.
