Children's manners
The use of yes sir, yes mam seems most prevelant in the south. It was one of the things I noticed back in the 50s when I attended a Christian College in Dayton Tenn. I think it is time for a revival of good manners being taught in the home. I just received a Thankyou e-mail from my turning 8, granddaughter for a birthday gift. I'm pleased that the girls are being taught good manners by my daughter. Children learn by example, in turn will teach their children. One of the things I have always enjoyed about TAGS was that Opie wasn't a smart mouthed kid like some the characters on later shows, a type of so called humor I never found funny.

Mr Schwump or Schwamp? Sightings
I think we should start sightings of Mr Schwump like they have had of Elvis. I heard someone tell a friend of my cousin's wife's nephew that they saw Mr Schwump in Vegas, Now they didn't say he was gambling but he was standing beside a roulette wheel, smiling and nodding. Some one else I know said they thought they heard he had crossed Old Man Kelseys Ocean and was hanging out with those Englishters. That's the word on the street anyway.

jaywalking ticket
Remember when Barney gave Emma a jaywalking ticket. A customer at the library just told me she got one. I didn't think they enforced jaywalking.

Barney's right
Oh, I just thought of another time that Barney was right. When Charlene did the ritual and incantation to divorce Dud Wash and the family was trying to force Andy to marry her, Barney came up with the idea of using mountain folklore to get Andy out of it. Andy didn't want to have anything to do with it, but Barney insisted, and his black rider on a white horse saved Andy from marrying Charlene. Barney was right!

Mr. Shwump's Anwering Machine
I was trying to call Mr. Schwump with a question concerning enrolling in the fall semester at his School of Smiling and Nodding. He wasn't in and I got his answering machine. His message goes something like this: Ring..ringring..click...beep. dan ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Twilight Zone
Bein retarded (retired), I bought the definitive collection of the twilight zone, and, course, watched it all. Floyd has bit parts in two episodes, Gomer costars in one, but the best is Ernest T. Bass! He envisions himself as president. Who knows, we may need an Ernest in there?

Giraffes
Our local zoo just finished the new giraffe enclosure and we're expecting a couple of Masai giraffes next month. Boy, I sure hope they're not selfish. dan ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
