In our major grocery store, Krogers~don't know if you have one where you live~sells Root Beer still in brown glass bottles. I believe it is the IBC Root Beer brand. It is more pricey of the Root Beers but has that old time kicker of what goes into Root Beer. It's not the syrupy flavors that most pop comes with nowadays. I know that some Texans drink this as I dated someone from Ft. Worth who just had to have this particular rootbeer and in its brown glass bottle! Sorry not a Texan so can't tell you their grocery stores.

It's the one in which Kirk falls for a >charity worker (Joan Collins) during the Great Depression. Anyway there is a scene in which the two are walking >down the street, past several familiar-looking storefronts...and one of them was--guess what?--Floyd's >barbershop!! This makes a great trivia question for people who think they know a lot about Star Trek. Just ask them what city Kirk, Spock, and McCoy were transported to in that episode. Most of them will say New York City, but we know it's Mayberry! The episode itself never makes any mention of their location (a suspension bridge can be seen in one scene, though -- maybe the Robert E. Lee Natural Bridge replaced it later on). BTW, the TV repair shop was a radio shop in this episode; obviously Orville Monroe couldn't have worked on televisions in the 1930s. Another ST episode to feature downtown Mayberry is "Miri." There's lots of junk in the streets to make it look like a sort of ghost town, but it's Mayberry all right. Kirk and company beam down to the planet and appear right in front of the Mayberry Courthouse. Later in the episode, the Palmerton Cafe can be seen (look for it in "Arrest of the Fun Girls," "Banjo-Playing Deputy" and other TAGS episodes.) Any large video store will have both of these ST episodes for rent, for those who want a closer look. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 7 Apr 2000 08:37:50 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #106 In a message dated 4/6/00 9:45:02 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << I have a question you can all help me with.

To the good and beautiful preserved people of Mayberry: You can't imagine my surprise this morning when I picked up my copy of the Digest, and there as big as life was my post on "Fantasy Date." Now, indeed it was an idea of mine to propose the question that if you could have a fantasy date with anyone on TAGS, who would you choose, but I never intended THAT post to go through--I thought that little gem was getting cancelled, actually. But now I see that "marriage vows are honored in Laura Lee Hobbs' world" will be a part of cyber world, too, forever and ever! Oh, Lord. No, it ain't near 'bout the worse thing I ever wrote, I admit it, and it ain't even the first time I sent something in by mistake or sent something in I meant to send in but I lived to regret. It's just that when you see your goofs so early in the morning, well, it is a little hard to get the day started just right. And I don't have any Andys to take the edge off! At this point, I don't even think a gold truck sighting will help. But, my idea still stands. Who would you pick for your fantasy date?

Well, Rodney Dillard Darling cleans up good (seen him) and I think I would pick him. He sure can sing and pick the guitar and that's important for sunset watching rowboat rides. Also, I might get a chance to live in a cabin surrounded by big strong boulders, drink mulberry squeezins, and listen to bluegrass music all day and all night. What more could a girl want I ask ya.

There are so many good vittles us Mayberry type folk like it's hard to list just a few, but Flora's Egg salad sandwiches are good, Hollowed out tomatoes filled with Avocado, topped off with one of them little lemon cookies...or how about some of them little finger sandwiches that Thelma Lou makes, the ones that look like they been tore in little bitty pieces...of course, Barney wouldn't be happy unless there was some Pizza pie, he just loves Mozzarella, Apple pie is always a hit with Opie and of course ya can't have a buffet table without some of Aunt Bees fried chicken...even if Opie didn't like it..his pet bird Dickie did...yum yum, and biscuits and honey, although they might lay a little heavy for flying, and top it all off with a nice fresh slice of watermelon or some homemade Ice cream...oh what a treat....lots o luck to you and yers....I'm headed down to the fishin hole Tony Henninger ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2000 23:06:28 -0400 (EDT) From: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: NEW "TAGS trivia of the day" mailing list!

I also loved having the opportunity to download "hello doll": we love it here in our little corner of Mayberry. P.S. Saw that Goober Beasley intro too and was astounded: glad that someone else picked up on it. Maybe he and Juanita are related (lol).

Hey to all. I ordinarily stay over at the Bulletin Board and don't contribute very often to the Digest-but golly, I sure print it out first thing and read it beginning to end. This morning when I printed out Volume 2, Number 106 what did I find at the very end??? That Gold Truck Watcher Laura Lee Hobbs was asking dating questions and mentioned my alter-ego RIGHT THERE OUT LOUD! My jaw dropped open, I can tell you. I'm not going to tell you all the things you'd just love to know about the unseen Viola Slatt. Maybe you'll meet her in the flesh one year at Mayberry Days and then you'll know. For now, this unseen character is going to remain a MYSTERY! But to answer the lovely Laura Lee's question, I think that I'd have to date (since I'm eighteen in this imagining and unmarried) that handsome, well-educated gentleman in episode #24 The New Doctor-you know, the one that scared Andy so bad he was ready to marry Miss Ellie whenever she said? Andy was RIGHT to be jealous! HE WAS GORGEOUS! (Sure wish I could remember his name...think I'll go ask over at the Bulletin Board). So that's my response, Laura Lee. Good question, too.
