wbmutbb-digest Wednesday, February 9 2000 Volume 02 : Number 048 Topics in this issue: Forks forks forks enough Columbia House Re: Let's stay on the subject Re: epilogs Forks No Tags No Tags Re: No Tags & me Sharing TAGS Andy & Aunt Bee Liquor in Mayberry Videos ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 10:29:38 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Forks forks forks enough Good Montana friend Tom (..I envy your surroundings) Don't want to start a molouge here. I respect your thoughts as everyone here. I do think the series of notes from LLH used many Griffith-esq themes, and allowed others to respond with specific TAGS examples (dropping fork, smacking with spoon etc.). I too at times bring in personal experiences with a Mayberry view. Like all topics, it may have run its course, but I didn't find it in violation of the rules. Just like the Andy episodes, here at the Digest there are some topics I like better than others. It is a fine line, and you're right, Allan wants us to stay on topic, so I could be wrong. (wouldn't be first time) Why don't you tell us more about Jim Nabors and what kind of place he has out there!!! Joe in Indiana (where Jim Nabors comes once a year to sing at the 500) ps; coming soon a new Lost Episode ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 11:44:55 -0500 From: "April Gailey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Columbia House I know that this has been discussed before.. But, if I could, can I ask someone to send me the list of the episodes that are available from Columbia House. Send it to me directly, PLEASE> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks for any help. April COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS, NOT YOUR TROUBLES!!! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 12:26:56 -0600 (CST) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (crystal) Subject: Re: Let's stay on the subject Tom, Let's also remember the rules about being polite to one another. Not everything that comes through the digest is actually about the show. But, we are a community...citizens of Mayberry. We are supposed to be friends. I, for one, don't have a problem with someone asking for a little advice. I enjoyed the way the Laura Lee DID link her dilemma with Andy and the gang. It has been almost as much fun reading everyone's advice to her (and how they link it to the show) as watching the show. From the amount of responses that she got, apparently other people enjoyed it as well. You know, Joe's little episodes that he writes are not "really" about the actual show, but they are fun to read. I have everyone of his episodes saved. What about some of discussions about restoring old patrol cars? What has that got to do with the show? But, it is of an intrest to some of our citizens and therefore, is important. In other words, unless someone is being extremely rude or obnoxious, let's not complain. Laura's feelings are probably hurt. Think of how our group must look to all of the new citizens. There has been too much criticism lately. I hope that I haven't went too far in my "scolding" and that I am not blackballed from the group. I just can't stand the thought of anyone getting their feelings hurt...especially someone as nice as Laura Lee. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 09 Feb 2000 10:29:48 -0800 From: Bill Standley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: epilogs Wow! Andy got "Old Eagle-eye Annie" back! I've always felt sorry for him for losing it and now thanks to TV Land I see that Aunt Bee got to enjoy her bed jacket and Andy was able to keep on fishin' with his favorite rod and reel too - what a treat! Long live epilogs! the name ain't Clem, it's Bill ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 14:27:31 +0000 From: "Spotwilt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Forks I'll bet Clara could have helped LauraLee with the forks. Anyone who could grow roses and make pickles like she could was probably well schooled in the art of gracious living. I still believe it was a hungry fox come down out of the hills. 10-4 over and .... bye Albert ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 09 Feb 2000 13:46:28 CST From: "DEBORAH DUBOSE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: No Tags Re: commercials on TVLand If it helps, Nancy, just remind yourself of all us poor souls who are stranded out here without getting any TAGS at all! I'd be glad to put up with a few commercials. These withdrawals are killing me! Re: life story Now, granted, I agree the Digest should be just for TAGS, and forgive me for getting carried away on personal problems (like I said, no TAGS can do funny things to a person's mind). And if it'll make you happy, I'll get down under there with them spiders for a spell. But may I also add, in the words of our dear friend Gomer, "Tom Lawrence, you just go up an ally and holler fish." I said it, and I ain't taking it back. Besides, I don't know how to start up my own web site. So, you're stuck with me. Lydia--"I hate the sun. Whenever I go out into the sun, I get the herpes." Barney-- "Well, of course you do."

Ya'll know how I'm not receiving TAGS now? Well, I know I can't be the only one not receiving it, so how about somebody--say Paul--telling us each morning what the TVLand episode was about the night before, and giving us a description of the epilogue? That way, we can sort of feel like we belong too. And we can get a taste of some of the endings we may have never seen before. Come on, please? I really may not be long for this world and you know you want my last days pleasant...cough, cough, "It ain't like you to deny the sick."

You'll recall, I wrote in a few months back about how Andy's personality changed over the course of the series (more irritable, etc.) and it got me to thinking about his regard for Aunt Bee. In the early episodes, their positions in the family were very nearly equal; in fact, Aunt Bee, as his elder who helped raise him, had a slightly higher position. She would sometimes tell him what to do, and he would reply, "Yes, ma'am." In the later episodes (particularly when she buys the car) he seems to have much less respect for her, treating her like a child at times. Worse, perhaps, is the fact that she often allows it, asking him for permission to do things which she, as an adult, has every right to do. Comments?

(Not to mention Aunt Bee and Barney). >>>Possessing alcohol wasn't illegal in Mayberry,there just weren't liquor stores or bars.Least that's the way I understood it....
