Hey To All,
This summer heat must be stirring up bees in bee hives all over the place. I
believe these two episodes were referred to in an early post where the poster
admitted her error of swapping shows before anyone could have had time to
correct her. We were talking of Sunday Dinners and Church Times.
I respectfully will correctly identify both episodes for all who are
interested. The two shows in the discussion were: "Man In A Hurry" and
"Sermon For Today". I am trying to honk my horn as I love to live peacefully!
Back to the pickle watch!

I noticed the recent thread on Aunt Bee being a man in several episodes. How
about the scene in Convicts At Large where "Sally" is driving the car with
Floyd. When she's sitting there, parked, it doesn't look like her. Anyone
know anything about this?

It's too bad you have to keep reminding us to be nice to each other. I've
been reading the Digest for over two years and, until recently, I've really
enjoyed it. Lately there have been too many members who are overly critical
of others. Come on now ... if you can't say something nice, then don't say
it. Remember, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Since I decided to step into the pulpit for a moment, I want to say that I
am one who used to read everything in the daily Digest. Now I find myself
scanning a lot. My reason for scanning is that some postings are so long
that I now page down the screen, read that part, then page down another
part, etc. If someone takes up more than two of those pages I stop reading
and keep paging until I get to the next posting. Since this is supposed to
be a Digest, I believe comments should be kept to a few lines. Sorry if
this paragraph is criticism of others, but I want to give my reason for
scanning rather than reading the Digest.
Amen.

Dirty me, dirty me I'm disgusted with myself. I missed the first few
minutes of the episode and that must have been when they talked about
where Opie was going. I'll sadly return the ceramic pelican (postage
due of course).
Someone was talking about Floyd's son - he was also mentioned in the
episode with Henry the Jinx - he wasn't a very good baseball player.

Boy, was I excited: flipped on TV Land and settled down to watch one of my
favourite episodes, "Dogs, Dogs, Dogs". Just couldn't wait until ole Barn
delivered his famous soliloquy on that selfish animal, the giraffe.
And...poof! Where'd that scene git to? Gone! Just about broke my heart!

Subject: Aunt Bee
I am a TAGS fan through and through. I have every b & w episode on tape.
Plus they are the episodes where they haven't cut the extra minutes for
commercials. TBS showed them about 6 years ago. I taped them, and then a year
ago I transferred them to another tape just to keep them fresh. HOWEVER, I've
never been crazy about Aunt Bee. I thought she was pretty bossy in the
episode where she tried to keep Mr. Frisbee the moonshining farmer from
moving and just as bossy in the freezer episode. "Aunt Bee, CALL THE MAN!!!!!
But the way she carried on in the color episodes when she bought the chinese
restaurant was too much. Of all the characters, she's my least favorite of
the b & w episodes.

Subject: " Stranger in Town "
On " Block Party " Summer on Nick at Nite this past Monday I taped "
Stranger in Town " where Ed Sawyer came to Mayberry and knew everything
about everybody, but they didn't know him. I just had one comment to
make about that very fine episode, the scenes in the jail don't show a
window by the cells, yet the scene on the street where everyone is
gathered around the stranger clearly shows a big window(which is inside
in later episodes), was this an error, or am I confused?? No matter
what it was a fun episode......Lotsa Luck to You & Yours......Dave

Okay, Okay, I spelled Aunt Bee's name wrong. I will stay after class with my
mother figure until I get it right. But to paraphrase what Barney said about
the Tomato; I think I've heard just about enough about that misspelling!

I believe that "What's Your Hurry" was in reference to the episode "Sermon
for Today" which is one of my favorites - "Sounds good to me too Andy". " I
can't play without a Uniform - Well, you sure can't play WITH one", "Get
down there with them spiders". Endless laughs.

Subject: Drunk Rooster
In the episode " Aunt Bee the Crusader", did they really get that rooster
inebriated for the show? Could this rooster have possibly belonged to Otis
at one time? Do you think this rooster was held as evidence before the
trial? If so, was he kept in Cell #1 or Cell #2? I'm losing sleep trying
to figure this out.

Subject: A Mayberry Moment
After a rather hectic day today, my wife Linda and I experienced our weekly
"Mayberry Moment". Our beautiful city of 60,000 sponsors a free outdoor
concert at the open band shell along the shores of the beautiful Chippewa
River. It is sad to report, however, the there is usually a crowd of
barely 100 folks relaxing under the stars to the nostalgic music of
yesterday. Tonight's concert could not have ended on a more wonderful
note, when the band played that Mayberry favorite, "Stars and Stripes
Forever". My wife and both got the giggles when we noticed the man playing
the cymbals. He was short and wirery, just like Barney. I wonder if he
ordered them from Cymbal City.

Subject: Opie's piano lesson
Hello to all, hope you had a nice holiday weekend.
Watching TAGS this morning, which thank goodness I didn't go by the
TVLand schedule, because it had Gomer Pyle on the schedule, and it was time
for Andy....I know better!! anyhoo.....while watching episode 215, Opie's
piano lesson...I noticed something that I've never seen before in
Mayberry.....The football coach was a previous Giants player by the name of
Flip, who was a black man. He mentioned that he was coming to Mayberry to
take over his father's business. So, perhaps there always were minorities,
we just never saw them.
Well, that's my two cents...still a trained noticer-in-training.
Floyd the pug says, Woof!

>And then when Andy asked what time dinner would be, she frostily replied,
"I don't know. I haven't decided yet." Like she was going to punish him if
he didn't come up with a cure for Dolly.
>>>
Actually, Aunt Bee's remark was a bit of good-natured ribbing aimed at Andy
(I must have seen this episode a dozen times before I caught this). Earlier
in the episode, she asks Andy what he wants to eat, and he rather rudely
tells her to quit asking him what he wants to eat, day after day, and just
make a decision on her own. Hence, her remark about not having decided yet.
The other day we were discussing the classic Star Trek episode "The City on
the Edge of Forever." Not only do Floyd's barber shop and Foley's market
appear in that episode, but so do Dolly and the Dogwood Dairy Farms wagon.
Right before Dr. McCoy arrives, a derelict steals a bottle of milk that has
just been delivered, then McCoy accosts him (this scene is often cut - TAGS
is not the only show to be butchered for the sake of additional commercial
time).

Along the "what were they thinking!" lines, I was reminded in last night's
episode that I sure wonder why Andy told Ernest T. to tap the fellow he
wanted to cut in on real hard, "let him know you're there"... Boy, that was
great advice! *g*

Hey Paul,
I must reply to your e-mail about the Rodney Dillard show in Branson. We just
returned from Branson yesterday and that is the only show I really wanted to
see. It was wonderful. I enjoyed it so much. He talked a lot of his days on
the Andy Griffith Show and sang some of the songs that the "Boys" made famous
from the show. The first thing he did was give that "Darling LooK", it was a
hoot. I encourage everyone who is planning a trip to Branson to go see The
Rodney Dillard Show and the Boy's from MayBerry. His beautiful wife is in it
too and so is his darling 9 year old daughter. I wish I could see the
Original Dillard Band someday. But we live to far away from Mount Arie to
attend the annual MayBerry days they have there every year.
Again the show was wonderful.
Everybody on the Truck,
Sandy Hodge

Subject: Barney Offering A Light
Hey To All!
I was watching TAGS last night and noticed when Barney offered the lady
prisoner a light so she could smoke, Barney went over to Andy's desk and
brought back a match book. I know we have recently explored Barney
offering people a light for those who smoke, that he tried smoking once and
the NICE big lighter he carries in the pocket. Wonder where the lighter went
to? I thought that was why he had such a nice lighter that he carried
around....to help folks out.
Hmm...where is my bucket?
I better count those pickles one more time!

Just wondered if the "emailer" was a member of our TAGS group - he
sounded a little rude and not much like a TAGS member. Hope he remembers
he's not talking to "jerks"----
