Regarding Barney's duck walk, don't forget the time he's on the roof with
Gomer in "The Big House" episode when he spots what he thinks are the other
gang members, which in fact are detectives in plain-clothes.

Subject: Barney's gun
I could use some help from fellow list-members, since I'm not lucky
enough to have all the episodes on tape. What are all the names
that Barney calls his gun?
>>
This may not be a complete list, but here are several:
Baby, episode 39, 70, et al
Gat, episode 50
Old Roscoe, Heater, Old Persuader, Rod, episode 109
Blue Steel Baby, Old Roscoe, Heater, Ol' Persuader (or maybe it's Li'l
Persuader), episode 150

I'm new to WBMUTBB and thought sharing my favorite lines from TAGS might be a
good way of introducing myself.
My five favorite lines, in order, are:
1. "Just had to have an apple, huh?"
2. "Next time I go tiger huntin', I'm gonna take my tweezers."
3. "Well, first your right foot starts tinglin', then your left foot. Then,
you know what?'
"No, what?"
"Your foot's asleep!"
4. "Alaska? That's the same thing I told her! I wonder who that nut was?"
5. (Barney to audience during debate with Andy for Sheriff): "Do you know
what Sheriff Taylor keeps in the trunk of the squad car? A shovel and a
rake!"
(Goober to Andy): "Ain't you got a jack?"

Subject: MAD magazine?
I sent this Thursday but it didn't show up in the digest, so I'm trying
again:
Can Paul or someone else help me? I believe I remember that Mad Magazine
spoofed The Andy Griffith Show some years back. Can anyone provide the
issue number and the year? THANKS!
.
Also, if some of you fall asleep like I do, during that late-night showing
of TAGS, if
you'll go to the WBMUTBB/TAGSRWC site, you'll find a link to Mayberry
Interactive, and there you'll find a lot of the epilogues written up (mostly
by me, and Dave [Orville Monroe] Scheuermann, and Doug [Rafe Hollister]
Garrettson, although others have also contributed and done a fine job).
Some are more thorough than others, but most are pretty
accurately scripted.

Watching a color episode on our local station where the ladies of the church
want to spend a memorial gift on choir robes, and the men want to work on the
sunken foundation, got me to studying -- has anyone ever seen the actor who
played the preacher on any other tv shows or movies? Also, for Paul or other
trivia buffs -- how many episodes of TAGS did he appear in? I can think of
about 6 -- but there could be lots more.

Subject: Our groovey Miss Poovey
If Opie had gone to the home of the groovey Miss Poovey, he would have been
in hog's heaven! You all may not know this, but in addition
to being cute as a dog's ear, and a talented singer, and a popular dater of
Marines, our own Miss Poovey is one fine chef. And she could
have turn grits and prunes into a feast for the palate. Yummy!
Also, the Hobbs usually refer to our store as the "five and dime," but
for brevity sake--and because that's what Gomer called it in
"A Black Day for Mayberry"--I just go with the flow and call it the dime
store. By the way, Gomer is an austere shopper. And he would never spend
more at Weavers when he could buy his fashionable attire
like that tie of his and those spiffy shoes and non-porous socks (guaranteed
not to let your leg hair show) at discount prices at Hobbs'
five & dime. Over at Hobbs you can buy all household goods, popular
records, religious materials like Bibles, irregular beddings and towels, and
clothing to fit every member of the family from the inside
to the outside all moderately priced. Shop at the Hobbs' Five and Dime.
Your neighbor does!
You know, I'd like to see a little quiz where someone like you, Allan,
would get a bunch of lesser known quotes, and see just how well we "I
know every line of every episode" really do know our stuff. That'd be
kind of fun and educational. I don't want to cause a lot of work or
anything, but since I'm getting TAGS in a few weeks, I'm feeling my oats!!!

Subject: Duckwalking Deputy Summary
Thanks to all who responed to the Digest and to me regarding my question
about all the times Barney used the "Deputy Duckwalk" Here are the
ocassions:
1) On the roof with Gomer (trained noticer Tim Morgan cited that one)
2) In the chop shop with Hubcaps Lesch (several of you mentioned this)
3) In Ellie Saves A Female (featuring Frankie the farmer's daughter) Barney
snuck around in
the Barn (thanks trained noticer Gloria Bruce)
4) In "The Inspector"...Didn't Barney do the Duckwalk behind the police car
when they were shot at.... or was it "Alchohol and Old Lace" when the
moonshiner was shooting at them.
5) Dan Owsley remembered the Deputy Duckwalk in the epsiode where Barney
captured the
crook by driving off with the car pulling the trailer.
...and then of course the two classics...behind the Drug store counter when
spyin on Miss Ellie
and the new Doc, and in Weaver's at night lookin for the crooks.
that's 7 or 8 and I'm sure we still missed a few, now here's my question??
Why wasn't that part of the Sheriff's Department Physical?
(instead of that silly height & weight stuff)
OK Officer...Walk this line for 15 yards in 20 seconds without your head
rising above four feet!
I think ole Barn, would leave the Big boys behind. I know a few county
deputies, that if they ever got down that low would never get up.

When Barney defends his opinion by referencing his
magazine article, I love to hear him say,"QUARTER

"I'm sure that most loyal TAGS fans already know this: Howard McNair
(Floyd)
was a regular supporting character on a very popular radio show long before
TAGS ever ran.
Howard played the voice of "Doc" on the old "Gunsmoke" radio show in the
50's."
I've recently been listening to the "Gunsmoke" radio show on cassettes from
my local library. I had forgotten that someone mentioned Howard's being Doc
on the show earlier, when I spied a picture of him with William Conrad and
Parley Baer on a cover of a Gunsmoke tape. Parley plays Chester on Gunsmoke
(the radio show), and it's fun listening to these shows! Chester seems so
meek, not blustery like Mayor Stoner!! And Doc seems more comfortable
around the ladies than Floyd seemed to be (remember Ms. Grayson?!). If you
have a chance to listen to these, do so!

PS One of my favorite TAGS phrases (that I've actually gotten to use a
couple of times!) is "Of course you smell gas! Whaddya think this car runs
on? Coal?!"
