Poor Ken Anderson, he got turned down for membership in lodge last night.
We thought maybe Mr. Schwump did it so we just asked him if he was the one
who cast the black ball. He just nodded and smiled. You can't argue with
Mr. Schwump once he's got his mind set. Personally, I think it goes back
Those of us gals who grew up in the 40's and 50's are well aware of the glove
situation. I think it was part of our heritage.

That got me to thinking. As most of you know, beans take quite a while to
cook,
3 or 4 hours.
That's easy...She had just served (four bowls worth) to Andy, Opie and herself.
If she's any kind of cook, and we know just how well Aunt Bee can cook (well,
except pickles and marmalade) she'd
Cathy,
What about those wonderful handyman men who would try and get folks in
Mayberry to let them do odd jobs or sharpen knives? We all remember Mr.
Wheeler (Uncle Joe on Petticoat Junction). What about our door-to-door
butter and egg men? How about that Orville Hendricks? And who could forget
Yesterday's advertising message got me to thinking about Mayberry shopping
opportunities with no more racks, especially Bert Miller. Absolutely no
better customer service or return policy. Of course, when he got rid of
the ringin doorbells, I guess he gained some racks. .Aside from Bert, and
Hi Gang,
There was a salesman that came to the door when Aunt Bee was baby sitting

Decades ago, many housewives were wont to put on a big pot of beans on
washday since the latter took up so much time. That evening the family had
beans, hopefully with a chunk of ham in them, and cornbread hastily put

Speaking of the spam advertising and Bert Miller, if y'all remember a funny
post one day about where are they now: Bert is now selling on Ebay. He sells
a little of this and that including one thing and another. He does very well.
His ebay username is nomoredoorbells65 ;)
The first show I thought of with door to door sales was Opie and his
friends selling Salve. Then there was the shoe salesman in those Gossipin'
Men and in the color episode where Aunt Bee was babysitting a relative's
baby and a kitchenware salesman came by and ended up helping with the baby.
Interesting that Cathy asked whether or not there are still any Door to
Door salesmen around. It just so happens I have just taken a job selling
door to door so I have a little extra money for Christmas this year. I
will be going door to door selling padded bras. I call myself the Fuller
Bust
Hey, speaking about Lydia Crosswaith...Weren't she and Jennifer Pike one
and the same actress?
I get real car sick ya know.
