Floyd's home. Floyd's home is seen in "Quiet Sam" (interior only) and "Divorce, Mountain Style" (exterior only). >9. Aunt Bee's bedroom. We see Aunt Bee's room in a few color episodes, including "Lost and Found," "A Baby in the House" and "Aunt Bee, the Swinger." >Places never mentioned: 1. Firehouse or firestation The firehouse is mentioned in "The Case of the Punch in the Nose" (old records are stored in the basement) and "Citizen's Arrest" (Gomer offers to take Andy to a boiled dinner held there). >2. Hardware store. In "Ernest T. Bass Joins the Army," Mayberry's best rock thrower breaks the window out of Richie Ferrara's hardware store; in "Aunt Bee's Romance" Mr. Wheeler heads to the hardware store to buy chicken wire (why he needs this is a mystery, as Andy doesn't keep chickens on his property, as far as we know.) - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2000 23:22:50 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #180 In a message dated 6/12/00 10:16:01 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << Places never mentioned: 1.

"The case of the punch in the nose" I think. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2000 23:38:41 -0400 (EDT) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: That one makes me cry I got a real treat on Sunday afternoon when TVLand showed a "Box Set" of Happy Days actors in earlier roles. Of course they featured Ron Howard and what better earlier role than Opie? And what better episode to showcase little Ronnie Howard's acting ability than "Opie the Birdman"? It is the episode that always make me cry. Me and Elvisfife and his daughter settled in to savor every moment. Barney's display of his slingshot savvy....The tearful moment that Opie realized he had killed the mama bird (if that don't clutch your heart, you ain't got one!!!)... The hilarious way Barney explains how birds communicate; "Tweet-tweet twit twit tweet-tweeeet!" means "I'm feelin' goood!"...Opie talking about big ole juicy worms and Aunt Bee having a fit over it....and of course when Opie gives the birds their freedom. I start wellin' up when Opie worries that the birds can't fly 'cause he might not have done the right things on account of him not really being their maw. Then he gently tosses each bird into the air and says "Fly away, please fly away!" By now me and my hubby are blubbering like two widder women at a full gospel funeral! My step-daughter is looking at us and probably thinking "They're a sight!!!". And when Opie comments on how empty the cage was and Andy sez "But don't the trees seem nice and full!" Well now we have totally lost it! While we are a-howling and blowing our noses, Step-daughter just gets up and leaves the room! Elvisfife and I look at each other and burst out laughing...which reminds me of a quote from a favorite movie of mine,,,"Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion!" (extra credit if you know the flick!) Does any one else have these kinds of emotions over a certain episode? Let's hear about them!

(AIT)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Unseen Places Harriet You picked a good topic, but you'd better go to the Library to do a little research. You left us a few holes. speaking of Library--wasn't that an unseen place? The hardware store was mentioned in the Bank Holdup Episode. Remember when Asa lost to screws to his gun and Barney said that the hardware store is "right down the street" But no lumber yard that I recall...and they had to get that wood somewhere to build a stand for the traveling salesman. (Sterling Holloway) The firehouse was mention when Andy saved Gomers life. They were having a fish fry (or some public serving) down at the firehouse. Andy was going there to get away, and then Gomer offered to go with him. How about Public Restrooms Sarah's house/office/switchboard??? did ya ever see that? I thought there were restaurants...like Morelli's and how about the Chinese place that Aunt Bee bought?? There's more, but that's enough for an Untrained voice ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 06:31:19 -0400 From: Steve Caswell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Unseens In response to Harriet's places never mentioned: > 1. Firehouse or firestation > 2. Hardware store. (I guess Weaver's was the everything store.) > 3. Book store > 4. Florist > 5. Pizzaria (pizza was mentioned but never delivered) > 6. Watch repair shop > 7. Shoe repair shop > 8. Telemarketing. Ha! Gotcha....can you imagine what telemarketing would be like without dial phones? > 9. A real restaurant - not a cafe, or diner I hate start a moulage, but I think at least two of Harriet's places never mentioned were actually mentioned: 1. Firehouse or fire station - seems like I remember Andy talking about going to the firehouse for a boiled dinner. 2. Hardware store - I wish I could remember his name, but I can't - but in the episode where the older man played by Uncle Joe came and squirted goo all over the roses and ended up staying a while - he came by the courthouse for money to go to the hardware store for some chicken wire. Odd. If he was such a goldbrick, why did he need chicken wire?

A real restaurant - not a cafe, or diner >> Well the FIREHOUSE was mentioned - they were having a boiled dinner and playing cribbage there one night . Barney told Asa that he could go to the HARDWARE STORE to get a screw to repair his gun and....... Andy and Peggy went to a real RESTAURANT where Andy decided that he'd let the snails go by and he and Barney ate at a French restaurant in Raleigh - Barney ordered brains and snails. Personally I would rather have had vienna sausages with tomato sauce and succotash. Aunt Bee opened a Chinese restaurant with real fortune cookies. That's all I can think of at 8:00 in the morning. I'm barely awake.

Lansakes Yes! I did mean the french harp! I was having a bout with jaw pain and as you could see I wasn't quite up to snuff! Pardon the typo....I could see Barney playing the French harp luring that goat out of town as I typed that message! Now how did I get horn out of harp when I meant harp? Oh well, thanks neighbor! Guess I better stick closer to the Pickle Stash!

Floyd (whatever his last name was) looked pretty snazzy with his new do too. So, Howard McNear was originally Floyd Colby. When it was changed to Lawson, I don't know. Buzz Fluehart >> I've already been chastised about this blunder and am wearing my hair shirt and punishing myself inside. What more do you want??? A girl's only made of flesh and blood for heaven's sake. I really think that Floyd Lawson bought out the Colby shop and hadn't changed the name on the window yet. Would that make for a reasonable deduction? I always try to find logic in Mayberry but sometimes it gets my brain all ajumble. Linda - this Goober's got a new comic book to read - yeaaaaaa ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 09:21:07 -0400 From: phil goins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: What Regis says... > >But, what is it Regis says? "Barbarians! Worshippers of ____" ??? > I believe that word would be "mammon". "You cannot serve God and mammon (deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in)." Matthew 6:24(b), Amplified version. Also, I want to let my good Mayberry friends know that I won't make it to Mayberry @ Meadowview this year. I'll be in Los Angeles with 24 more folks (youth and sponsors) on a missions trip to the LA International Church (the Dream Center). We do have a "play day", and since we'll be within a couple of miles of Hollywood, hopefully I will get to see Don Knotts' well-deserved star. I'll certainly miss seeing everyone. Love to all, Momma (Jeannie) ...I would rather live on the verge of falling and let my security be in the all-sufficiency of the grace of God than to live in some pietistic illusion of moral excellence.....Rich Mullins 1955-1997 ------------------------------ End of wbmutbb-digest V2 #181 ***************************** ************************************************** ~ Visit our sponsor ~ Weaver's Department Store ~ http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/weavers/ ************************************************** You must send your comments to the Digest from the address you used to join WBMUTBB or your message will not be posted.
