The WBMTUBB Mousepads are here at my house and they look great!! I have PLENTY of them if anybody still wants to order one (or two). I expect these to go quickly when folks actually see them but I have 120 or so that aren't spoken for. Jan is planning on picking up the WBMUTBB shirts (both tees and sweats) on Tuesday if all goes as planned. We'll be getting them in the mail either late next week or early the following week to everybody that's order AND paid me for what they ordered. If you've ordered...get your check to me so I can mail you your stuff. Jan and I ordered a FEW extra t-shirts in sizes L, XL, and 2XL. These won't last too long so if you want one....get your order in as well as your payment. You can either mail the check to me or use your credit card to pay by using PayPal.com. The link below will take you there to sign up if you'd like. https://secure.paypal.com/refer/pal=anewsome%40aol.com That's the update.

I would say that we had roughly the same population as Mayberry and the same assortment of businesses. The courthouse offices were upstairs from the sheriff's office too. I remember going with my daddy to get new car tags and licenses and thought how quiet and solemn the upstairs hallway was. Remeber, Howard Sprauge was the COUNTY clerk and he seemed to do everything from dog tags to bike licenses to property taxes. I just don't think that a small county courthouse was that busy in those days ~misspoovey~ >> Sounds like your town was a great place to be raised ms poovey!good old Main Street USA......consider yourself very fortunate. and im sure you do.you, in essence, lived the Mayberry lifestyle and i am very envious! i would love to hear some childhood stories sometimes........TAz [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 19:47:54 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #176 In a message dated 6/9/00 10:00:28 AM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << Do I have too much time on my hands or what? ~the groovy misspoovey~ >> NAH....just a great imagination, and that is kool.............TaZ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 19:58:33 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #177 In a message dated 6/9/00 5:25:12 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << In the heard-but-not-seen discussion, somebody mentioned Dick Van Dyke.

Now I can't name the episode but the first Floyd ever on the show was not played by Howard McNear. He did have a stroke but his character was never replaced; he just wasn't seen for awhile til Andy asked him back and accommodated Howard by letting him sit and propping him up against a board. I'm sure some of our more knowledgable members know the name of this actor that was Mayberry's 1st barber. ~the groovy misspoovey~ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 22:48:34 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #177 Floyd was always played by Howard McNear EXCEPT the first episode. My mind is a blank, but they didn't have a contract because Howard was working on another project. But he came in for the second and stayed until his death. If my memory serves me correctly, the last episode he appeared in was the one where Howard Sprague bought the building where Floyd's barber shop is located. The last year or so he was on the series, he did in fact do a lot of sitting and in an interview, Andy said they completely rewrote some scripts to accomodate his stroke and his inability to stand unaided. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 22:49:46 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #177 How about "The Millionaire".

Andy & Barney are playing gin rummy at the beginning of the show. Barney gets frustrated during the game and says, "Creepers!" I love the way he says it! This is the only episode that I can think of, where he or anyone else uses that word as an expression of frustration. Just thought it was interesting.
