MAYBERRY SIGHTING

Keep watching for Gracie Gives a Baby Shower Shower For Virginia Beasley. The postman's daughter is played by Betty Lynn. If AntennaTV remains on its current schedule, that episode from October 1954 should air sometime in mid-February. Brent Thanks, Brent.I'll be watching for that

I have enjoyed two visits to Mayberry Days over the past several years. Mt. Airy is 1,560 miles from my house, so it's not always an easy trek. However, sometimes I've been able to stop there when my wife visits her aunt nearby. Some of my favorite Mayberry moments have been these

Mayberry Sighting

2013-01-14 Thread L. Gillum
I am recovering from a very painful shoulder repair surgery (had to go to the bigger doctors in Mt. Pilot for this one), and am restricted to sleep in my recliner chair for awhile. This has provided opportunity to catch some late-night TV shows that I didn't even know were available now.

I have been trying to find appropriate words over the past four days to express my feelings regarding Andy's death. I give up. I cannot find those words. There are times when words are simply too inadequate. I can say, however, that I was surprised and overwhelmed by my own personal reaction to

Note to George (Goober) Lindsey

Goober, you were always the person I wanted as my nextdoor neighbor (except for the times when you worked on five cars simultaneously in the driveway). I don't know how to pay a higher compliment. Your departure has left another profound loss in our community. Guess I'll have to wait

Mayberry Language

What I find so refreshing is that he not only didn't get into a snit over it, he didn't use a lot of four-letter expletives, which is so disgustingly common these days. I appreciate people who keep their language clean! Seems that's awfully rare now, especially in show business.

Warm and Fuzzy

Thanks, Dewey, for starting this discussion thread. I've probably brought up this episode 124 times over the past 10 years, but my warm and fuzzy moments (plural) come during the CHRISTMAS STORY (# 11), my all-time favorite (shared with a couple of other episodes). There are facial

My house and the contents were destroyed but praise the LORD my family are safe. Will send more info later. Paul Mulik Paul, I thought of you immediately upon hearing the sad news of such devastation in Joplin. We are so very, very sorry about the loss of your home and contents, but

Heating in Mayberry

2011-05-08 Thread L. Gillum
Was anything said on TAGS about heating homes and businesses? I'm sure they must have had furnaces, for when Andy and Aunt Bee considered buying the new house, the seller's son spilled the beans and told them that the crack in the furnace was getting bigger every day. Sorry, but I'm

Thermostats and Mayberry A/C

2011-05-07 Thread L. Gillum
If your thermostat is set at say, 76, and you want it colder, you turn it DOWN, not UP.? Maybe years and years ago air conditioners were different? All this talk about thermostats and turning up or down the A/C! Gosh, the Mayberry of my childhood not only did not have A/C, but it had

Mysterious Courthouse Door

You are right there was a door just to the left of cell 2. It was there throughout season 1, but then disappeared. I don't know what it was for but it was there. Maybe the door opened into a stairwell, also accessed via an exterior door, by which one ascended to the mayor's office on

It's that time again. The telephone is not allowed to ring and the dog is not allowed to bark. Cars on the street are not allowed to honk and there shall be no knock at the door. I'm lost in a special world of memory and nostalgia as the TAGS Christmas Episode plays again in my home. My

Dennis, Loved your post about missing food in the break room and the TAGS-related conclusions. Keep up the good work, and watch out for those foxes! Here in our mountain hamlet, we're watching out for bears, but they don't open refrigerator doors. Lots of luck to you and yours, Larry in CO

Thanks to Jimmy, the Untrained Voice, and others for their recent contributions with regard to the lengthy, ongoing orations about Andy in later vs.earlier episodes, his attitudes, his disposition, his dubious relationships with women, etc. (What have I forgotten?) I had begun to think we
