What about "Those Gossipy Men". Practically the whole town turned out to sing or play an instrument as they serenaded the shoe salesman. I believe that's the only episode we see Floyd's son. >By the way, do you think that Mayor Pike was one of the Pikes that >Floyd said nobody liked around Mayberry 'cause they were troublemakers? Are you thinking of the conversation in the barber shop when Andy was bragging about reeling in a carp? An out of town columnist and the mayor walk in. All she hears is Andy saying "And I said, Mr. Carp, you have met your match." She freaks thinking he's bragging about arresting someone named Carp. She talks about how in her town they wouldn't think of doing that. Mayor Pike says, "You wouldn't kill a carp where you come from?" She answers (and this is hilarious) "No! No more then we'd kill a Pike!" Floyd's line is, "Oh those carps, they're so.....pushy." Harriet "Maybe you've heard of my column? Meandering with Margaret?" ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 08:54:05 -0400 From: Don Good <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Earl's Boy >Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2000 21:10:55 EDT >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #199 > >I hope every body knows how old Earl Pipes boy just turned on his birthday? >After all he did buy him a new car.

Don G. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 09:01:59 -0400 From: Don Good <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Meadowview & More Is there a website somewhere with details of Mayberry at Meadowview (schedule, etc.) - and also the get-together later this summer in Sevierville/Piegon Forge, TN. I've seen some places with announcements, not not any kind of big write-up or anything. I'm a little over an hour from Kingsport and less than that from S/PF. Didn't think I'd be able to make either one so I hadn't paid much attention, but it looks now like I might be able to get to at least one of 'em. Don G.

Floyd the pug says "woof" Sheridan L. Miller >>> When John Masters was searching for a good tenor, he gave it as 2,000. A few years later in "The Statue," it is said to be 1,800. In the final episode, a sign at the train depot in puts it at 5,360. Apparently Mayberry's population fluctuates at wildly unpredictable rates. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 07:54:45 -0500 From: "Paul Mulik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: rumor >>>The rumour was, when I was in the Corps, that Don Knotts had been a Marine Drill Instructor at one time. Any truth to that? >>> You been talkin' to Sarah over at the switchboard?

Whoever did the song did their homework. It had voices like Andy, Floyd, Aunt Bee, and Barney. It was a hoot! I don't remember the whole song, but the first verse went like this: Well, if it's south you're bound, I'll tell you 'bout a town that you prob'ly will not see. 'Cause it's kind of a fable and it's only on cable and they call it May-ber-reee! Does anybody have a copy or more information on it????>> I remember this song! It had a line in it that said: "Well my name is Andy, folks say i'm dandy,.....................(forgot this part) Well I got me a man, always at my command, ........ serves no strife, cause he's true, and he's blue, and he's my cousin too, and his name is barney fife. well, my name is fife, the law is my life, you could say it's in my blood, cause whenever there's trouble, I'm there on the double, to nip it in the bud. I've got a gun, never cock it, got a bullet in my pocket, and a gal named thelma lou, there's goober, emmitt, howard, and otis, and Floyd the barber too (then floyds voice) That's all I remeber...

In that last scene, where Mr. Winkler brings in his son to get the bike back, I can only think about how parents like him now outnumber parents like Andy. The only thing that was missing from the script was the father whining about his little brat's self-esteem being hurt, and the threat of a lawsuit to pay for the psychotherapy. Unfortunately, today, the sheriff would gladly turn the bike back over to avoid legal entanglements (if he'd even confiscated it in the first place). And if he even HINTED that physical punishment might be needed, hoooo boy! He'd be answering to the "enlightened" ACLU and looking for another job. I guess Arnold got his revenge. We now live in a land where his actions are the norm, parents are ruled by their kids and no one cares about authority. There's no place like home... there's no place like home... there's no place like home... ------------------------------ Date: Wed Jun 21 12:19:28 2000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: oops! >>>I think I sent the last posting I wrote with my e-mail signature.

Somewhere I'm sure John Masters is beaming with pride...

I was surprised hoow much I enjoyed the color episode "A Singer in Town" with Keevy Hazelton. Also saw a color episode I don't remember seeing before, "Otis, The Deputy" airdate: 12-12-66. On the back of that cassette case was this note, " According to (Hal) Smith, an executive with Andy Griffith Show sponsor General Mills tried to oust Otis from the show. Smith Claims the executive had alcohol induced problems of his own and could not stand to be reminded of them by Smith's character."

And don't forget the bear that wound up in the back seat, with Andy and barney on the roof, in the episode when a prisoner got chased up a tree and didn't return to jail. Mayor Stoner ended up getting torn to shreds!
