It's nice, real nice. The rooms have nice furniture and decor just like Aunt Bee would do it. The owner also bought alot of stuff from Frances Bavier's estate and has made an Aunt Bee's room. It is quite special but you cant stay in it, just look at it. Call early for reservations! ~the groovy one~ ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2000 07:08:10 -0600 From: "Paul Mulik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: epilogue >>From: "DEBORAH DUBOSE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I've checked the epilogues, and it wasn't there, so can someone give me the ending to the episode "Mr. Darling Declares for Aunt Bee." >> Aunt Bee goes out to the squad car while Andy has a short talk with Briscoe. The sheriff promises not to prosecute Mr. Darling for breach of promise, then Aunt Bee calls Briscoe over. After first checking to make sure she doesn't have a spoon, Briscoe goes over and Aunt Bee gives him a goodbye kiss, saying, "Thank you for wanting me." Briscoe says something like, "Your kisses are nice and highly valuable, but to be perfectly honest, they just ain't worth the pain." For a pretty woman that reads rose poetry, she sure packs a mean spoon! - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2000 23:16:44 -0600 From: Dale Stokes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: How about a REAL sing-a-long? You folks sure know how to put a glow in a man's day----or at least at the end of a man's day. I always look forward to checking in with ya'll at night before I go to bed. After being on this list for awhile now without even chewin my cabbage once, I got all inspired and rendered some songs fer ya'll to listen to whilst you ain't got nothing else to do........you can hear 'em fer free at: http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?genre=country¤t=3 and scroll down and click on "Scottsville to Mayberry" Actually you can only listen to 'em free. I ain't chargin' nowhere...... Since I ain't got some smarts and nothing to say, here's my little contribution to the list..... If you want to cuss on me or if you want to buy the album that there ain't one of, give me a holler at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (thanks fer not interruptin me in the middle of my iffin') Dale Stokes Scottesville, Arkansas Brick And Stone Society (B.A.S.S.) chapter of TAGSRWC ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2000 08:25:30 -0500 From: "Dan Goodwin/Jobscope" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Favorite Minor Characters Laura Lee might have hit on something here, about favorite minor characters. First of all, let me go ahead and get it out of the way - there are no minor characters, just minor actors (I suppose Leon would qualify for that). I have my favorite picked out, then I thought about a sub-contest. I can see the awards ceremony now - And the award for Favorite Actor in a Non-Speaking Role is....... See, this even leaves out Johnny Coons because Johnny did speak in one episode. Stuck? I've already given you one hint...Leon...and how about Mr. Shwump? I'm sure if you use your bucket, you can come up with some others....after all, we're all trained noticers. dan ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2000 10:05:45 -0500 From: "Hinesley, Tim" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: The Bullet > I injured my knee last Monday while playing basketball.

I sure have not regretted that move away from cable 3 years ago. How many of you watch Leave It To Beaver after TAGS on week nights? I haven't watched LITB for many years. I often watch it after TAGS. The last few years of LITB were on during the first few years of TAGS. The Beav and Wally (when he was younger) would get into trouble and try to hide it thinking that their parents, Ward and June, would never find out. But Ward and June would always find out and explain why they shouuldn't have done what they did and how the boys could always come to them when they were in trouble. That show reminds me so much of TAGS. Both shows exhibited respect for adults, respect for each other, family values, morality and honesty. I've watched TAGS for years because of TBS and WGN. Now that I can see LITB again, I see quite a resemblance to TAGS. LITB did not have as many unique and interesting characters as TAGS, but it still is a good show to let children watch. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2000 19:10:05 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Larry McPeak Friends, I just spoke with Tim White of the VW Boys concerning our friend and fellow VW Boy Larry McPeak. Tim tells me Larry is in good spirits but is very, very ill. For those of you who don't know, Larry has been diagnosed with a disease that is destroying his liver. He will have to have a transplant. They tell me it is like the disease that Jim Nabors had a few years back. Larry sends his sincere thanks to those of you who have sent cards letting him know you are thinking of him. The operation Larry faces will cost $125,000. He must come up with $35,000 to even have his name put on the transplant list. After the operation he will need medication for several years at a cost of around $1,500 per month. Several of our digest friends have offered to send in donations to help Larry meet these expenses. They are in the process of setting up a fund for this cause. In the meantime donations can be sent to Larry's home address. Please note on the check it is for the 'Transplant Fund'. If anyone would like to send Larry a card or note or a small donation please send them to: Larry McPeak 1180 Sunset Street Wytheville, VA 24382 Thanks to all for your concern and keep Larry in your thoughts and prayers.

Bass. From his undying love to Miss Darling to his lovely "hooty hoo," Ernest is my favorite. It also helps that I mis-quote his famous line of, "It's me, it's me, it's Ernest T" - - I always insert my name and initial. . .Betsy B. Everyone knows that I am a faithful watcher of TAGS. Thanks for this great digest - this is my first time responding. Another Aunt "B" - literally! Napoleon, IN ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2000 20:14:40 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Pipe down, Otis My vote for favorite secondary character goes to Otis Campbell. Choice moments- Otis drinking Andy's "fixer-uper" (in "Dogs, Dogs, Dogs") and rolling his eyes; and the episode "Aunt Bee, the Warden", singing the Dipsy Doodle song! "...What a mess I've made of my life!" Well, I guess I'd better go re-plant that back forty now, so signing off...

When I was a little kid, I thought that Luanne Poovey was the ideal woman. I wanted to grow up to be just like her, except for the bad singing in the sleazy nightclub part. Tonight Sgt. Carter and Duke were extra sleazy trying to pick up Miss Poovey. No wonder she went for Gomer instead.
