There wasn't anything on at that particular time of interest to me so I was making one flip through the stations before I decided to do something else and there was TAGS! I thought everyone lost the rights.... I rubbed my eyes and it was still there! >> Not everybody lost their rights to show TAGS. TV Land has the NATIONAL cable rights. That means no other nation wide cable channel can show TAGS. Local stations still have the right to show TAGS in their viewing areas.

I read or heard somewhere that Ted Turner was a big TAGS fan and when they ran the show it was number 1 in its time slot. We have a local station that carries it but I have Direct TV and do not pick up local stations. Maybe I could hook into old man Kelsey's antennae and get it.

I don't prohibit selling stuff. I just don't encourage it. Ha ha.....We don't want the WBMUTBB Digest turning in to a swap meet but if any of you folks have something you'd like to give other TAGS fans a shot at before you sell it somewheres else...feel free to do so. I don't want our members missing out on anything. Allan ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 9 May 2000 01:38:05 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Mayberry 2000 Hello, I recently subscribed to the Bullet but would like to get some information on the Mayberry Days 2000. Do you have to buy tickets (and or) attend events to enjoy ...can you still see stars if you don't attend ticketed events...? Can anyone give me a detailed description of how these 3 days can be enjoyed...is it like a citywide 24 hr a day celebration ? I would love to attend but would be a SERIOUS commitment and would have a difficult time taking off work. I just have no idea how 3 days will and can be spent.I have looked at the Bullet showing all the events..golf..bowling tournaments.dinner..talent time..all require tickets which is fine but don't know how to plan .... Any and all information would be great, pictures from previous visits are welcome also.. Also I would like to know how to contact the Chapter "the Tail-Gunners" out of Indianapolis if anyone know how.... Thanks Gotta go snack on some mazerella pizza and read my True Blue Detective magazine.. Cheryl ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) NOTE FROM ALLAN: Cheryl, there are reports and photos from past Mayberry Days on the TAGSRWC web site. Those might help you get a feel for what happens and where you might want to be during the weekend. Go to the TAGSRWC site and then to the "What's New" link. There you'll find a link to "Mount Airy, NC". Follow the links and you'll find all kinds of information on Mayberry Days. http://mayberry.com/tagsrwc/ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 08:27:41 CDT From: "DEBORAH DUBOSE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Depakote Since Big Maude (also known as Ralph Henderson) wasn't the only one to ask, I thought I'd reply via the Digest, what is Depakote? Depakote is an anti-seizure drug I take and it can cause a variety of side-effects (we do not know if it caused the hallucination. That occurs when a seizure happens near the optic center of your brain--something that has happened twice to me.) You have to have your blood tested every few months when you take Depakote or any seizure med 'cause they can go toxic in your system real fast. (Toxic simply means it starts attacking the liver.) I'm back on Depakote, but in a smaller amount. I also take Topamax and am coming off Neurontin. (They are all anti-seizure meds, too.) I've been on it since 1997, and in January my blood level was 82, perfectly normal, but come March it was well over 200--dangerously high. Also, there are several members of the Digest who also have seizures, and I never knew of them until I wrote about my health problems. I know the Digest isn't the place to talk about health issues, but I got a lot of emails on Depakote and what toxic means, etc, and hope this answers most of them. Also, many thanks to all the letters I received thanking me about what I wrote about Gomer and the Mary Grace episode. I think that episode touched a lot of people, and I just want to say I read every email and appreciate each and every one of them. You people mean the world to me.

I was fortunate to hear him sing a few years back at the Mayberry reunion in Opryland where his voice was still as powerful as ever. So, that's just made me curious as to whether or not he did any formal recordings. As always, thanks. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 10:19:17 -0400 From: Michael Burch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Ever notice .. part #2 OK, I'm back with more observations. I just watched (yesterday) the episode with Mary the county nurse, Rafe, and the rest, and I NEVER noticed 2 things (I've seen this episode a million times). First, when Barney was showing him his hands were "like steel" I NEVER noticed the hand-waving, snake imitation Barney was showing Andy before he ponded his hand on the railing (has this clip been left out of this episode on occasion?) and 2nd, I NEVER remember (course that and a dollar wouldn't buy Ernie Gilley's car), Mary RUBBING ANDY's NECK in th squad car before getting out up at Rafe's. Am I imagining things, or are both these clips little excerpts left out occasionally.

It's really pounded too, you can watch them do it. It comes with minestrone and you can hold it down to $1.85 each if you don't get the shrimp cocktail.

WBMUTBB T-shirts, Sweatshirts and Mouse Pads!!! GOOD NEWS FOLKS, The new design for the back of the shirts is a go!!! Jan, bless her heart, did all the leg work to find out on this for us but we'll be having the new design on the back of the tees and sweats as well as on the new mouse pads!!!! The design is simular to the one we've had in the past but MUCH better. WBMUTBB members Dennis & Tammie Atkins did the design and color seperation for us and it is WONDERFUL!! Thank you to the Atkins'!! If you haven't seen it yet, go to the order page and check it out. While you're there, go ahead and place an order if'n you want one. http://members.aol.com/anewsome/private/wbmutbbtshirt.htm MOUSEPADS I'm going to go ahead and put the mouse pads on the order form as well. The mouse pad will be $10. That's up a dollar from last time. Sorry about that but I'm figuring on being stuck with several mouse pads. (I have to order 150 of 'em and last time we only ordered 50 and I ended up we several of those for a LONG time.) The $10 does include the shipping just like the prices on the shirts. If any of you who've already ordered don't like the new design, you can email me to cancel your order. I don't think that'll happen but I wanted to give you the chance to do that. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Folks...these should be THE BEST chapter tees we've every had so don't miss out. Time is running out. I'm extending the ordering until May 19th but don't wait too long.

Only in Mayberry can a person take such a horrible "brain problem" and make it humorous! If any others out there in our little corner have these problems you know just how frightening this can be. It is nice to actually be able to laugh at these kind of things. What better way to hallucinate than to do it about TAGS! And the fun girls to boot!!! I think we all can learn from this. Life is too short to cry about our crazy stuff, we all need to learn to laugh a bit. Is this not why we are members of this particular club? Thank you Laura Lee for your courage to not only speak out, but to make this funny! I hope those of you that are fortunate enough not to have this problem can laugh with us and count your lucky stars it is not you. Thanks for letting me have my say ,now I can "have a Mayberry day"! I wish the same to all of you! peace Rose daLomba ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 9 May 2000 22:08:07 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #140 Greetings From The Land O' Elvis! I am just sitting at the old Smith-Corona and pounding out a few words while the twisters are headed this way. I couldn't help notice the question about Depakote. Depakote is a "mood-leveling" medication . It is used to fight depression and bipolar illness.Hope this helps.
