Hey Folks,

Y'all don't forget the "Mayberry Reunion" that's coming up on Monday night in 
Tenn.  If you're able to come, get in the car and head that way. The folks 
putting on the show have said that ticket sales have been slow and this is 
another event that might not happen again unless we can support it. If you're 
planning on being there, be sure to order your tickets now.  It's gonna be a 
GREAT show and I'm looking forward to seeing it. I hope to see you there. 
Details below....Allan

*****Mayberry Reunion*****
Summertime in Mayberry heats up even more with a very special "Mayberry 
Reunion" show at the Country Tonite theater in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., on 
Monday, Aug. 7 at 7 p.m. The stars in the exceptional lineup are Betty Lynn, 
James Best, The Dillards and Maggie Peterson Mancuso. (Other stars may be 
added closer to the show date.) Tickets are $25.00, plus tax, and are 
available at the theater's box office or by calling (423) 453-2003 or 
1-800-792-4308. 

The stars will present a full concert show, take questions from the audience 
and then sign autographs for any fans who want them.

There were two shows in which the town "Texarkana" was mentioned.

Member Janet Anderson was correct in responding that one was "A Singer in
Town", which was episode no. 189.  In that one, Aunt Bee and Clara were
discussing the song that made Keevy Hazelton famous.  It was "Texarkana
in the Morning".

In episode no. 82, "Class Reunion", Andy and Barney were talking about
testimonial ads they had seen in the back of magazines.  Andy recalls one
which stated "SJ of Texarkana says my spare time is a money-making
proposition."

Hey ya'll...misspoovey here! Well, now Laura Lee Hobbs can go on to her
great reward a happy woman because she has finally seen Aunt Bee fly
that airplane! Not that I want you to be going anytime soon, LLH !!!

I just get chills of excitement when I see the addy "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
cos I now I get to read a tidbit from the great Harvey Bullock! What a
wonderful story about Don coming over to wrap Christmas presents! The
spirit of Mayberry in action!

 To John who just came back from Mt Airy...aren't you lucky! We also
stayed at the Mayberry Motor Inn. It is so cute and homey! The dark wood
4 poster bed and other bedroom furniture made me feel like I was
sleeping in the Taylor's guest room. And how about that Aunt Bee room?
The owner was gracious enough to let us go in and take pictures...I even
held one of Aunt Bee's dresses up against me! Could almost feel her
presence! And John, I hope you didn't leave Mt Airy without having a
porkchop sammich at the Snappy Lunch!

And for Gary whose electricity went out during "Twice As Nice" Andy this
morning...no sorry, your guess was ice cold! Helen was indeed arrested
on felony charges for concealed weapon, dealing cards and associating
with a known gangster! What Andy later found out was that she was
working undercover for info with which to write her thesis on organized
crime! Unfortunately, the story got to the school board (thanks to
Goober) and Helen had to go through a great deal of accusations. A good
episode that shows how quick people can jump to conclusions and spread
rumors!

Okay, enough for me! Mum's my name, silence is my game...tick a lock!

What turn of phrase! Thank you, Mr. Bullock, for sharing your memories
with us here in the WBMUTBB Digest. I found myself grinning from
ear-to-ear while reading your recent Digest entry. The joy and excitement
you and your family experienced that magical Christmas when Don and Kaye
Knotts came to visit was evident, and it got ME all excited just reading
about it!  You beat ever'thang, you know that?

Well Paul, if it's the same song I'm thinkin' about, it makes Briscoe
Darling cry. Is the song title you're gropin' for "There Is a Time"?

Hey Harvey...it's nice to hear that the folks involved in the making of
TAGS had time to get together and socialize!  I think that's what makes
TAGS so special....it was built by  "family"...maintained by "family"
and watched and loved by "family!"  Thanks for providing us with a bunch
of laughs....and good times.......I sit and look at my autographed
picture of Don Knotts (loading his gun) and I now know behind that tough
lawman exterior lies a real human being!  You take care now........"No
Jud....you don't get guns!"

Subject: Harvey Bullock's message and Paul's trivia question

The message that Mr. Bullock posted about how he came to Hollywood raised 
the hairs on my arms and brought a tear to my pillow....  I tell ya, he's a 
treasure and a prince! It's so wonderful to have him share his experiences 
with us.  Bless you, bless you, bless you Harvey. (Had to make my own 
triplet!) Just how many Hollywood writers can boast that their shows have 
been airing for 40 years or more? They should give a congressional medal of 
honor to TAGS writers.

To Paul's trivia question about which song was Andy's favorite.  Was it "Get 
Along Home Cindy Cindy"? I know he sang it on multiple episodes.

Harriet

I too was frosted by the omision of Barney's giraffe
speech.  I tried to send this yesterday but tried to
cancel it when I realized I had not listed a subject. 
I'm trying to put one in instead of living with the
digest #.  I guess I just wasn't thinking.

Anyway, I had never seen the exchange between Barney
and Otis about Otis' pickled liver.  I thought that
was  a riot. I don't think it was worth giving up
Barney's giraffe speech but I wasn't consulted on that
count.  You would think that the folks at Nick at Nite
could find a TAGS person to watch over what is cut and
what is left in.

One more thought.  Did anyone notice in the "Dogs"
episode that Barney brought his own lunch?  What
happened to "Miss Luncheon Tray".  She fixed Otis'
breakfast didn't she.  Otis even threatened to take
his business elsewhere if Aunt Bee quit cooking and
they brought his food in from somewhere else.  Reckon'
Aunt Bee was mad at Andy and Barn or was she too busy
cooking for a church social?

Subject: New To The List, Etc.

   Hi everybody! I'm new to the list. My name is Lee and I have just recently 
moved to South Carolina. I was quite excited upon hearing that there was 
actually a mailing list for TAGS. I have been a fan since I was but a wee 
child, and I really like the idea that the concept of idealism that is 
"Mayberry" in essence can be transposed to the internet as well. 
   Anyhoo, I just want to say that I have been to Mt. Airy ('Twas a few years 
ago), and I enjoyed it greatly. Not only is it a quaint town, but it is in a 
beautiful part of the country.

   I do have one question, though: Does anyone know how to contact the 
chapter nearest me? I think the closest one is in Mt. Pleasant, SC.

   Thanks and talk with you soon,

   Lee

Is this the rambling forgetfullness of an inebriated Otis?

Is this another "date change blooper"?

Subject: My Triplet: Paul, Harvey, Pets

1) Paul - - I'm going to get back with you on the Chinatown song number - -
I know it's more than 3.  Those eps may be when the song is done in a major
way, but there are others where she's just absent-mindedly singing it.  But
it will take me a while because I have to watch each tape for two or three
days in a row because I have to keep rewinding every time I step out of the
room so as not to miss a second.  And with 50 tapes, it takes me a while. (I
have repeats on my tapes.  If only I had Malcolm to come help me with my
housework, I could be a lady of leisure and organize my tapes!)
2) Reading Harvey Bullock's messages absolutely gives me a thrill!!  What a
writer!  "They never meet the performers who pronounce their words" - - he's
so ept!   We are really blessed to have Harvey reading this Digest and
giving us a greater insight into behind-the-scenes-TAGS.
3) My sympathies are extended to the person who lost their animal companion.
Those of us who are PLs know the sorrow one can feel when a pet dies (I just
lost a favorite goat, Hilda Mae).  I also know the comfort that comes from
just watching TAGS.  And you'll feel better when you get a new pet and the
two of you are whistlin' that theme song together.

Wendy
