I knew I could start a moulage! All of you get A+s for your "SEENS" and "UNSEENS". Thought of one more place you never see - Barney's and Thelma Lou's duck pond! Course you can't see the ducks at night anyway..... Now, I'll get back to better things to do, like looking for chicken theives and whatnot! Harriet "Maybe you've heard of my column? Meandering with Margaret?" "You wouldn't kill a carp where you come from?" "No. No more than we'd kill a pike!" ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: 13 Jun 00 14:47:11 EST From: SANDRA SILS <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: "Andy Griffith Surgery" Hey, Just wanted to let you all know that I just heard on the national radio t= hat Andy Griffith is recovering from quadruple by-pass surgery and that he di= d indeed suffer a heart attack last month.

I know we had a discussion over at the Board about never seeing Thel and Barn in church together (I think someone even suggested she might be Catholic - - remember that?), but there is an episode (I think "Barney and Thelma Lou - Phftt!") where Barney says Thelma Lou is upset because he's cheap and never takes her anywhere decent. He lists the places he has taken her, including church every Sunday. Andy says, "Well, those are pretty low-budget dates." Can anyone confirm that? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 15:21:40 -0500 From: "Paul Mulik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: heart attack Folks, I hate to bring bad news, but I just heard in on CNN radio, so I guess it's true: Andy Griffith DID have a heart attack. He was said to be "weak, but still recovering." - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 16:34:16 -0400 From: "den57" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: That one makes me cry "Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion!" I believe, Miss Poovey, that quote is from one of my all time favorite movies "Steel Magnolias" and was said by Dolly Parton. How much extra credit do I get? "I'm in the Twilight Zone!"

Jamie Farr and Barbara Stuart to greet fans >> For many years I have gone to the Squad car rendezvous in Covington, and I am glad to hear that it is back this year. Luckily I live less than 30 minutes from the farm where the filling station replica is located. For a TAGS fan the event is a must. This is the first I've heard that the event will be taking place this year. In the past they have had several stars from the show there, but the coolest thing is too get your picture taken next to the squad car parked in front of Wally's service station. The closest I'll ever get to the streets of Mayberry. Thanks for the info. You know, after quite a bit of traveling already this summer, I've realized there is something else about Mayberry that appeals to me so much. Sure there are all the standard reasons why we want to go and live there, quiet, friendly, ect. Well, I want to add one to the list: NO ORANGE BARRELS. Paradise. "We defy the Mafia!!" Barney ------------------------------ Date: Tue Jun 13 20:31:13 2000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy's health Hi all, Don't know if you have heard or not but it is now public knowledge that Andy Griffith did, indeed have a heart attack and is resting at his home near Mount Airy. He is expected to make a full recovery. The information came today from the Associated Press and quotes a longtime friend. I would send the article but I am having problems cutting and pasting here at work right now...

"Barbarians! Worshippers of ____" ??? My daughter and I are forever needing that line and we're not sure we understand what Regis says there. Is it "Satan"? It sounds more like "Amon," in which case he's accusing the good citizens of Mayberry of worshipping the Egyptian sun god. Some days, I favor "Salmon," although it seems much more likely that Mayberrites would have worshipped trout or catfish. Maybe Regis was a Carp. Oh, they're pushy those Carp ... >> Karen: Regis says, "...Worshippers of Mammon." "Mammon" is an old biblical word that refers to material things in general, money in particular, much like "filthy lucre." The word finds its appropriate place on the lips of a doomsday prophet such as Regis.

This is the only episode where Howard McNear isn't Floyd. He was played by Walter Baldwin who was somewhat of a character actor of the time!! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 21:52:02 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy's health Here is the AP story: (Manteo, North Carolina-AP) -- Andy Griffith is recovering at home from a heart attack and quadruple bypass surgery. A longtime friend, Barbara Forrest, says Griffith's wife Cindi told her that her husband is still weak, but slowly recovering. Griffith is 74. Forrest says he had the heart attack last month at home and then had the bypass surgery. Griffith also suffers from Guillain-Barre (ghee-LAN'-bah-RAY') syndrome -- a neurological disorder that has plagued him for nearly 20 years. Forrest says it still causes Griffith occasional problems with his feet.

He's the writer of "The Fishin' Hole". ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 22:10:43 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #182 It's fun to see TAGS actors appear on Gomer. Allan Melvin (who played Sergeant Hacker made a few appearances on TAGS. He was the army recruiter who turned down Ernest T. Bass, he was one of the farmers selling produce that Barney had to get rid of, he was the bully who was going to beat Barney up when he was out of uniform, and a convict on 2 episodes!! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 23:41:40 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #177 Re Floyd - the grey-headed old man w/glasses - wasn't he the "first Floyd" - he was in one of the first episodes. He was always falling asleep. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 23:45:17 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #180 - Cyber Barney Paul - here's #15 - Peeking through Helen's window and watching Andy's arm "snake on out there." :) sheriff linda poindexter ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 21:31:10 -0700 (PDT) From: Janet Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Emotional responses Miss Poovey talked about crying over the "Opie the Birdman" episode and asked if the rest of us well up during certain shows. Yes, that particular episode makes me cry, too. Another one that activates my tear ducts is the first episode where Aunt Bee arrives to take care of Andy and Opie after Rose gets married. I feel so bad for poor Bee when Opie blatantly rejects her. And at the end when Opie has a change of heart just as Aunt Bee is leaving -- well, I really start blubbering then! _______________________________________________________ Get 100% FREE Internet Access powered by Excite Visit http://freelane.excite.com/freeisp ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2000 21:35:37 -0700 (PDT) From: Joel Rasmussen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Vintage TAGS Collection For Sale.
