#1 I was listening to a Milwaukee Brewers baseball broadcast on the radio
today and the announcers were discussing today's weather. One announcer
said "It is nice", and the other announcer replied with, "Real nice". For
a minute there I though they were talking about Mary Grace.
#2 I had a
About a week ago I injured my knee whilst working out in the yard. I
finally went to the doctor today. While being escorted to radiology to
have X rays taken, the technician asked how I hurt it. I told her it was
an old football injury from playing football with my wife. That cracked

How many times in everyday life have you been doing a mundane chore that
brings back a Mayberry Moment? I use a stoneware crock to brew sweet tea (a
little sweet tea and spicy talk), and tea being what it is (staining), the
crock must be cleaned on a regular basis.
When I am doing
This weekend Ted Kruz, Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and Bernie Sanders
will all be coming to good old Eau Claire, WI. Our local news this morning
reported that there will be 300 officers needed throughout the weekend and
they were really scrambling with schedules to try to get enough officers.
Friday night my wife and I attended the play, "And Then There Were None"
which is based on Agatha Cristie's novel. Several times during the plays
the actors referred to someone named Beatrice Taylor. Never thunk in a
million years our beloved Aunt Bee would be mixed up on a murder mystery.

Sometimes in life you have to make your own Mayberry moments. Mine came at
bingo the other day. After a bingo is verified the caller usually announces
that it was a good bingo and reminds us toclear your cards for the next
bingo. We'll I was Settin' with my friends Corinna and Johnny. When
I had a couple of Mayberry moments on this Labor Day.First off, while
watching the movie The Apartment on TCM there was a scene on Christmas.
Anyway, Santa Claus came into the bar.Playing Santa Claus was none other
than Otis.And Otis' one line was Hey, Charley, give me a bottle
Last night my wife and I took our two cars to a car show at a local Burger
King. Shortly after we arrived a man who was probably fifty years old came by
with his girlfriend. It was quite obvious that they were both developmentally
disabled. I have never seen a person get so excited seeing
I have to agree with Ken that part of the appeal was Mayberry was home. And,
for a half hour we were allowed to be part of it. And, you know many of us
look a long time to find that same feeling.
Also, I agree about Andy laughing at Don and Andy laughing at Barn. But, I
think sometimes the
It's always amazing how little touches of Mayberry show up in your life, if
that's your point of view. My wife and I went to a Broadway Under the Stars
concert tonight here in Montgomery, Ala. Of course, my first thought was of
The Sermon for Today and Mayberry's effort to put on a band concert
Just returned from Haiti where I was part of a group providing ministry and
relief, and I had not one but two Mayberry moments. First, someone made a
reference to a security guard being like Barney Fife with a bullet in his
pocket (seems there are Barneys everywhere!) and second, I was sitting
In our Sunday School we are doing a book study which deals with shocking or
unusual stories from the Bible. Today our lesson was on working on the
Sabbath and the lottery and what the Bible says about it. After some
discussion I looked over to my wife and said this could all have been done

Had two Mayberry moments the other day while flipping thru the channels. In
Bachelor Flat, there was our Floyd, in a striped robe, fussing about
something. Then in A Life of Her Own, you could hear the strains of Good
Ol' 14A in the backbround of one scene. Warms my heart!

I wanted to share a few recent Mayberry moments. Last night, I was reading
Reminisce magazine before bed. (My parents subscribe and pass their old issues
on to me.) I was reading a tidbit sent in by a Roger Courtney, and as soon as
I read his name, my brain just automatically added
Our young people at church recently painted their youth room so my wife and
I decided to check it out after church yesterday.
I broke out laughing the minute I saw it. They had painted the entire room
that sickly green color we see all over Mayberry.
At the hospital where I volunteer I was
I too noticed all the actors from Mayberry in The Ghost and Mr Chicken. It
was a wonderful surprise. Wouldn't it have been neat if Andy was in it?

stunned!

HI pals Gals,
During these rocky times in the world I do rely on my mayberry moments to
see me through.
I wore my Andy Griffith show shirt to work the other day and a friend of mine
who works in shoes...asked is that a coincidence?
I said what? He said your shirt I said
Hey Danny, I was in Wilmington several years ago and found it to be a lovely
place. I had some dear friends that lived there back in the 80's and visited
them on a couple of occasions. Your story about being at work and seeing the
plate glass window brought a big smile to my face, as Ernest

I love those Mayberry moments! I wish everyone could make the connection when
we sneak little quotes in, but I guess it's enough that we enjoy them and can
share them here.

I have a few mayberry moments that I would like to share.. These have happened

I had two Mayberry moments within an hour this morning. First one occurred
when I received a phone call from the librarian of the town library where I
taught for 30 years. She wanted to know if I would be willing to make an
exchange. If I would donate one of my books to the library, she would
I had a Mayberry moment yesterday. I was driving home from visiting my mother
and heard a radio station playing Frank Sinatra songs, and they played
Chiribiribin. This whole time, I thought Barney was saying Cherry Berry Bin,

gets it, is it Doug? But, WE all get it... thanks for sharing that! I can
only imagine the blank stares you got!

than fiction.

Hello Friends,
After being a longtime member of this list, I have decided that it is time to
share more about Mayberry with the rest of the world.
I have been considering compiling a book of Mayberry Moments, if I could get
enough material. You know, all those situations we observe, quotes

I sometimes have these Mayberry Moments and usually have nobody to share
them with. These two in particular happened to me over the past year and
I found them hilarious. Of course, I'm the only one laughing when they
occur. I live in the Boston area.
First, a group of friends called to get
