(AIT)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Who's Johhny/ Jim Nabors appearance/ >>OK...I have to show my ignorance. I thought I could figure it out by reading the digest for a while, but I can't stand it any longer. Who the heck is Johnny Coons? ...and why is everyone looking for him? Sweetly Disposed<< Dear disposed I struggled with the same mystery when I first joined, so I'm happy to share. Johnny Koons is an Extra that appears in many episodes as various passer's-by etc. One memorable scene is when Barney breaks out of the bank with the dress on, and begins taking off the dress on the street. As Johhny stares at him Barney says "What's-a-matter? haven't you ever seen a man take off a dress before? Koons often has on a white hat. My favorite Extra is Joe Hamiliton. Another guy that wears a white hat alot. Joe is next to Gomer in many scenes including Citizens Arrest, when he is Gomer's biggest backer. Joe once makes fun of Barney, sticking his head in the courthouse to report a theft.... then he says "Somebody stole a base...down at the baseball field" My daughter and I just saw Jim Nabors on Robert Schuller's religious program. He talked about his gospel CDs that he made after 20 years since his last record. My daughter couldn't believe it was him and then he said his memorable Go-ol-ley. As he then sang a number from the CD, she said "I didn't know he could sing!" I laughed and thought...neither did John Masters! Jim spoke of how his faith grew during his illness and liver transplant. He said he couldn't preach about it, so he chose to put together the CDs to share the gospel. (OK I'm not preachin here, I'm just quotin' Gomer). He looked good and will soon be 70. He's still got dark hair, but I don't know if its "dark right out of a bottle" Nice poem there is yesterday's Digest also.

The only time I've had this happen out of maybe 10 requests to various people over the years. My wife and I have gotten quite a few of the cast members and were naturally wanting to add Andy's signed photo. I hesitate to purchase a signed photo of Andy on ebay as I am aware of how prevalent forgery is. I have written a couple of articles about how to identify Roy Rogers signature (after many years of research) and have found that at least 75% of the ones being offered are not real...either the work of his secretary, or an out and out forgery by the seller...many with hundreds of positive feedback entries. If any one knows how to get one, I, too will be waiting to hear.

( are you a male Robin or female Robin?) The poem was terrific. I think Mayberry should give you the key to the city and you should be honorary citizen for a day. Now don't you go taking any watches or keys. Walking through Mt. Airy during Mayberry Days is pretty doggone close to walking through the town of Mayberry.

Maybe the judges >stopped by to visit the Baldwin sisters before >voting! While I love TAGS and it is my favoite show, I must defend my Monkees! I have been a Monkees fan since the age of 7 and the first episode. I have been written up in trades as having the 3rd largest Monkee memoribila collection this side of the Mississippi. Those of you out there who know me, know that I have actually cheffed for Davy Jones! Well, I feel that their Emmy was well deserved; it was at a time where the voice of youth was getting louder and it was new and fresh. Now don't get me wong..Andy was still on top of the ratings and for good reason...it was and is just great classic storytelling. But think about it...the Monkees were the fathers of the music video and they were quite ahead of there time...MTV didnt hit the scene until 1980! And NBC did an amazing think...they took 4 young men who had never met, cast them in a TV show about a band and then they actually became one. Yes they could and did at times, play their own instruments, but like a lot of bands used studio musicians on their records. The fact that they became a legitament band is like Lenard Nimoy actually becoming a Vulcan! :-) So where as Andy has never been out of syndication in 39 years and I would be the first to admit that the Monkees' show comes over very dated, TAGS is by far the clear winner between the two. But the Monkees had there place and the judges in 1967 saw that; even if they did visit the Baldwin Sisterson the way to the event. But I really dont see how.... the Baldwins were from the Waltons and that show hadn't premiered yet!!! ~the groovy misspoovey aka the #1 Torkette~ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 21 May 2000 15:09:11 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: New Member Update/Bio's We're now at 1596 members here at WBMUTBB Chapter!!!

I absolutely love this song. I also have been unable to find it on an album. I'm only heard it on TAGS and I simply love that song. It is so lovely. I do have a Dillard's CD I got from TAGSRWC, but that has a male singing it and it is not as nearly a good rendition. I wish so much that Maggie'd been on that cut. I think this song is one of the lovliest I've ever heard.

There is an article on the 1967 Emmy Awards and a picture of Mayberry Deputy Sheriff Bernard P. Fife!! In 1967, Don Knotts won his fifth emmy and Frances Bavier won her first. The most shocking revelation in the article was that even against such competition as Hogan's Heroes, Bewitched, Get Smart, and TAGS, the Outstanding Comedy Series emmy went to The Monkees!?

I recently watched my video of episode #137 ("Goodbye Sheriff Taylor") in which Barney throws a tomato at Otis to test his reflexes. Embarrassed and frustrated at Otis's repeated comments about the tomato covering his shirt, Barney says (in a way that only Barney can), "I think I've heard just about enough about that tomato!" I love the way he says it! Another note about that episode -- Have you noticed that as the camera cuts back and forth to Otis, in some shots there's only a little tomato on his shirt, but in other shots there's a lot more? I guess as they did different takes of the scene, more tomato was added to Otis's shirt for effect, but the different shots don't match up! _______________________________________________________ Get 100% FREE Internet Access powered by Excite Visit http://freelane.excite.com/freeisp - ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 20 May 2000 20:52:52 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #149 A few months ago, a TAGS friend and I were discussing all the old episodes. i have quite a collection of Christmas specials from movies, sitcoms, specials, cartoons, etc. I started doing a little research and discovered that in the 8 years of TAGS, there was only one Christmas episode. After the research, I discovered that in those days, it wasn't always done as they thought reruns wouldn't be so great if they showed a Christmas show in June. Also, lots os shows were pre-empted in those days for other Christmas specials: Fred Astaire, Perry Come, Bing Crosby, etc. - ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 20 May 2000 10:15:11 EDT From: "ROBIN BANKS" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: MY Dream When we think of going to heaven A street of gold is what comes to mind But to walk through the town of Mayberry for just one day Is what I would love to find. First I'd stop by the courthouse Of course, Otis, He's in jail. Barn and Ange are out front on the bench So I'd stop and sit with them a spell. Floyd would sit and join us Talk about the weather, it's hot, it's 92. Then he'd tell us that Calvin Coolidge said that And Andy'd smile and say,"Yeah Floyd, that's true." We'd all go over to the barbershop To watch Floyd cut some hair. Watch Judd play a game of checkers And see if that lady manicurist might show up there. We'd walk over to the bank To check the security there. Everything looks perfectly normal, See, there's Asa asleep in his chair. We'd go over to Foley's marker He gave us any fruit we chose. And if he wasn't very busy He might even tell us about that famous punch in the nose. We'd go over to Wally's filling station Goober would be there--not making a fuss. We'd get us a good ole bottle of pop, High octaine ethyl, no just a nectarine crush. It'd be getting long about supper time We'd go over to see Aunt Bee. Some good fried chicken and gravy, And hey, save some apple pie for me. We'd sit on the porch after supper Andy would say "Peel an apple?" Sure I'll try my luck And Hey!, There's Brisco, Charlene, and the boys There're all getting off the truck. There's picking and singing, Andy jumps in and hangs on. It's "Ebo Walker", "Doug's Tune", And of course, Charlene sings that love song. They get back on the truck, I'm thinking, "What more can there be?" Then I heard a shrill voice say, "It's me, It's me, It's Ernest T!" My dream of the real Mayberry I guess the good Lord has His ways. Because I felt all the love from that small town In Mt. Airy, during Mayberry Days. The love and friendship that's shared by all Is what life means to me. I anticipate seeing you all each year To walk the streets of Mayberry! Hope my fellow Mayberry fans enjoy this poem. - ------------------------------ End of wbmutbb-digest V2 #150 *****************************Date/Time: Apr 28, 2000/09:45 Subject: Joining WBMUTBB Name: Arnold, David ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) My name is David Arnold and I am from Knoxville,TN.

I am thrilled to find a place where others are as passionate about "TAGS" as I am. I was born and raised in western Limestone County in a place called Pleasant Valley. I didn't move far from there when I got married and still go back there from time to time. I am married to a great guy even though he "ain't from around here". He's a transplanted Northerner. When I got him I had to teach him how to talk right. He still eats way too Northern to suit me but I guess you can't have everything. No, really, he's the greatest!! We have 1 daughter and she has been watching "TAGS" since she was born but will probably never be the fan her mom is.(But I will keep trying.) Brian (my husband) and I have been married for 18 years and are still like newly weds. Life has dealt us some hard blows at times but we've pulled each other through and are still going strong! We both have full-time jobs but we work out when we get home in the evenings. In our weight room we have the life-sized poster of Barney Fife, the tin signs, some "TAGS" bumper stickers and some other "TAGS" stuff. I must confess though that I did the decorating...Brian just isn't as big a fan as I am! One of our work out partners is, though and he and I do some dialog from the show every time we get together. "TAGS" is so much a part of my happy life...I know I wouldn't be the same without it!!
