Here's the link to a web page they've made for Larry. http://www.bcmamuseum.com/larry/ If you folks don't know him, Larry is a member of the VW Boys band. That band has been a big fan of The Andy Griffith Show and has been at Mayberry Days for the last several years.

He looks great, and he's making a "Gomer" face! Connie Degrassi Happy Trails! ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2000 22:17:46 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Jim Nabor's Birthday In a message dated 6/18/00 9:12:02 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << Depending on which source you consult, he is somewhere between 67 and 70.

Someone posted over to Miss Crump's Blackboard that Jim was 70 years young. I was kind of surprised as I always thought Gomer was a little more younger than Ange. He seemed so much younger than Ange when he first came into the Mayberry picture. Happy Birthday Jim! Gotta Do My Weekend Inventory of The Pickle Stash!

Put down your nought and carry the nought...... >> Correct, as a train dispatcher for 20 years we always used Naught for zero or 0 in our trains orders and messages. We had to say the numbers then spell them as in 401 four naught one.

I also would like to apologize to everybody for my rather hasty reaction to what was most likely my misunderstanding of your inquiry. Let's talk about something else and get back to Mayberry right quick - ok?

I guess my grammar lessons were all for naught. Oh well... Dixon ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2000 23:47:56 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #152 - guest of honor I had to respond to this posting.....Having lived in West Memphis for three years when my dad was the Navy recruiter I can fully appreciate everything you said about it and the people that live there. When my dad was transferred to San Diego I cried for 600 miles...there was no consoling me. I still love it and consider it my home town. I was born and mostly raised in Arkansas. Everytime we came back from a duty station we always returned to Arkansas. West Memphis was great then and am glad to know that it remains the same. I'm so glad your parents were able to experience such a great place.

I only saw about the last half of it and there was no mention of TAGS. Sad story, he should have stayed up in the mountains. Laura Lee, you know anything? Don G (who's for the single tax) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2000 13:21:05 GMT From: "Harriet Browder" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Contractions, and other inarculations.... If anyone has any problems understanding us Southerners.....reference Jeff Foxworthy's clip on lunch: Djaweatyet? Naw,djawu? Uonto? Awrite. Course, the spelling is a little off, but then who can spell that? I have a great idea Allan, why don't you start making it a pre-requisite to joining the Digest that people pass a test. If Barn can make Otis pass a sobriety test to be let out of jail then we should pass a knowledgable test to join WBMUTBB. So many people don't know about Weaver's or the TAGSRWC site and end making either a moulage or embarress themselves by showing their inabilities. They don't have to score high just show that they know what we're about in order to join. Kinda like Opie and Andy making a pact. Aren't we all blood brothers in the end? You go to way to much trouble to make the Digest a wonderful thing and all the related sites and you don't get appreciated nearly enough. People should know what their dealing with here...... And to add my thanks, receiving my t-shrit and mouspad on Friday just topped off the end of the week mighty fine indeed. They are terrific and I'm monsterously obliged to you, Jan and the art-Est! Hey Paw, I joined a club. Ask me what's the name? Ok, what's the name of the club? I can't tell ya. Harriet I think we just caught ourselves a chicken thief! ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2000 09:32:03 -0400 (EDT) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Little bit of this and that Hey ya'll ! Hope everyone had a nice Father's Day. Saturday as I was making a shopping list, my step-daughter was watching TV. From the kitchen I heard, "We've got to nip this in the bud! Nip it, nip it, nip it!!!" I go into the living room to see where these words of wisdom are coming from....one of those Japanese cartoon shows called Dragon Ball Z. Mayberry IS everywhere! We had a big time here on Father's Day. I made from scratch cinnimon rolls for breakfast. Elvisfife got a music CD, some football magazines and the as-seen-on-TV Handy Bundler. Then we all went to Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum. Almost as interesting as stuff Barney read about in his subject of the month magazines. Next was dinner... roast loin of pork stuffed with portabella mushrooms, white cheddar mashed potatoes and roasting ears plus muddy-bottom pecan pie for dessert. A great day was had by all. Saw an old episode of "Married With Children". The Bundys were on vacation and were stuck in a hay-seed town. The biggest social goings-on was at the town hall where you could "Meet the Man Who Met Andy Griffith". Sounds good to me! :-) Thanks to all digest members who clued me in on the meaning of "abysinnia" I remember the episode where this was said but never made the connection. And the follow up of "See ya Somoa"...now I get it and am no longer clueless! Makes me think of "See ya later alligator-After while crocodile" or "Know what I mean, jellybean-Yes I do, tenna shoe" Mayberry is so full of good quotes and sayings, it's one of the joys that the show brings me. Love working the lingo into my everyday life. Just like yesterday, we were talking to Step-daughter about not letting people judge you by how you look which led into developing your own look and style and how alot of people get better looking as they get older. To which I replied "Homely in the cradle, pretty at the table"! Enough jaw-flapping; ya'll have a good one! ~the groovy but long-winded misspoovey~ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2000 08:34:10 -0500 From: "Hull, Darrin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Behind the Scenes While channel surfing this weekend, I stumble upon something that may be new or may be old-hat, being offered through TNN. It's a video of classic comedy moments and Jeff Foxworthy ("You might be a Redneck...") is the spokesman. Here's the catch: Among the clip shown on this video are Andy's classic "What it was was football" and some BEHIND THE SCENES TAGS MOMENTS!!!! The clip is very brief, but it shows Andy, Barney and maybe some writers sitting around the desk of the courthouse with scripts. The video is $19.95, but I didn't get any more info, sorry. Does anyone else know any more? Does anyone have it? ------------------------------ End of wbmutbb-digest V2 #195 ***************************** ************************************************** ~ 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.
