What causes that? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2000 18:46:48 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #297 Hi Kirk Could it have possibly been when Gomer says "Judy Judy Judy"? Maybe you got it mixed up with the hoot owl impression, I've done that before. Hope to have helped.

How about it - possible? From K1P2Nana, otherwise known as R. Darling (honest) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2000 20:00:23 -0500 From: Greg Boe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Rain Howdy! I recall that a while back we discussed the fact that it hardly ever rained in Mayberry. It seems that we could only come up with two occasions: "Dogs, Dogs, Dogs" (where we saw the flash of lightning and heard the thunder), and "A Black Day for Mayberry" (where it rained when the crowd was gathered for the arrival of the 'secret' gold truck! Well, those were all the 'rain filled episodes' that I could think of too, but I was surprised to see episode #183 - "The Gypsies" - the other day, and the drought-busting rain storm featured in the show that I had clean forgotten about! That Jamie Farr sure makes a convincing looking Gypsie!

Now, I ain't gonna quote your whole post there, Harriett, but all I gotta say to your post is, "HEAR, HEAR". (I always wanted to say that. LOL) You got it exactly right. I think I for one, take all that Allan does for granted sometimes. He not only takes care of TAGSRWC, WBMUTBB, and a number of other sites, he also does my site, "Them Timers are Tricky" for me, since I still ain't got the hang of uploading stuff to it, and Martha and I really do appreciate everything he does. He really deserves a metal for all the hard work he does for everyone. Just a short 3 years ago when I first got on line looking for TAGS sites, WBMUTBB was the only one. NOW look at it....and Allan is the one to thank for a LOT of em. THANKS ALLAN Emmett & Martha Them Timers are Tricky ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2000 21:50:53 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Rules In a message dated 8/30/00 8:46:39 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << I'm so happy that our webmaster has bowed to the will of the people.

Rule #2 is still alive and well and I'll still be there in forcing it. Rule #2 is VERY important and it's kept our little corner of Mayberry a fun place to visit for a long time. I don't plan to abandon it so folks...just act like somebody and I'll be a little more careful about the enforcing of this rule. And of course, remember Rule #1 (Obey all rules) and I'm sure things will go well here in town.

Fortunately for me, I have been blessed with an iBook and the school is networked with T-1 connections. Most of the time, I can watch Like TV and it's virtually like watching a video tape. But even with that high-speed setup occasionally the picture gets jerky and sometimes stops altogether. At home, all I get is a slide show.

We're Gettin' Married! "Anybody here know why these two should not be wed, speak now or forever hold your peace." - Andy Taylor I love that line. It's the first one spoken in "The New Housekeeper", the very first episode of our favorite show. That single line of dialog led to so many more lines, and episodes, and memories. I also love that line because it's sure to be spoken by the one who performs the wedding that I'll be sharing with Stacey Woods, a WBMUTBB member and the woman I love. We met right here in WBMUTBB, in Sarah's chat room. And we'll be getting married shortly before Mayberry Days this year, in fact, spending part of our honeymoon at that annual festival celebrating "The Andy Griffith Show" and all things Mayberry. I just wanted to share the good news with all our fellow WBMUTBB members, and ask for your prayers and support. Stacey and I look forward to making many memories of our own together in the years to come. I'll see ya. Doug "Rafe Hollister" Garretson "The trouble with Barney is he isn't married. See, if he were married, little things like this wouldn't bother him." __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

In talking to Laura Lee Hobbs about her "three Ernest T's," I described another interesting individual (this one a female) that I knew many moons ago. Laura Lee urged me to share it with the rest of you folks, so here goes. When LLH mentioned about the three brothers wearing several layers of clothing, I was reminded of a woman I knew when I was a kid. She was the grandmother of a classmate of mine (though she was more like her mother because she raised my friend and her brother). She was a nice person but had some definite eccentricities. She, too, always seemed to be wearing several layers of clothing, none of which matched or complemented each other in any way. I don't recall ever seeing her in anything but a dress or skirt, and she always wore kneesocks -- colorful and gaudy ones -- and often more than one pair at a time. She also usually wore a hat or cap, something mannish looking. She and her husband spoiled my friend by giving her everything she wanted (candy, records, etc.). And yet, they lived in a little run-down house back in the woods that didn't even have a bathroom or running water! (I still vividly recall the first time I spent the night with my friend and was introduced to the chamber pot under her bed.) The inside of the house always was cluttered and didn't give a very clean appearance. I don't remember any decor -- nothing to make the place look homey or inviting. I guess this woman paid about as much attention to her home's appearance as to her own! They later moved into a nearby house that sat out on the road (as opposed to back in the woods)and, I think, even had running water. The area where they lived goes by a name (I don't know if it was ever officially a town), but it's way off the beaten path and is actually only a stop sign where two country roads cross. Interestingly, in her adult years, my friend seemed to achieve a much greater measure of worldly success than her grandparents enjoyed. She and her husband built a big, beautiful house -- out in the boonies just down the road from where she was raised!

Perhaps a jesture toward religious sensitivity? Don G. (who can't sing - "not a lick") >Remember when the Darling's sang "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms" in the key >of accapela under the tree when Charlene and Dud got married by the preacher. > That was my favorite song that they sung. >"I wouldn't marry you if you were the last man on earth". >Linda - the Goober with a veil on my beanie ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 07:28:42 -0500 From: "DAVID SIMPSON" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: BIBLE STUDY just a reminder. that the first Baptist church of Leeds,Alabama is starting the Andy Griffith show bible study this Sunday(9/3/00). it will begin at 9:30am in the adult 1 classroom(#106). the first episode is "raff hollister sings". so if any of you mayberrians are close enough to come, stop in a say"hey" this is big!!!!!!!! David ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 08:36:32 -0400 From: Don Good <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Don K on MSNBC I don't reacall any comments on the Don Knotts edition on MSNBC Monday night. I thought it was a pretty good show all in all. One thing that might have slipped through was our own head Goober, Jim Clark's name in the fast moving credits. I might have even seen another familiar name or two, but it "happened so fast." Don G. (if not well read, I'm sure well viewed) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 09:45:48 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Gomer's "Hooty-hoot"call That episode was"Andy's Vacation"when Gomer and Barney takes over the courthouse for Andy and they let and escape convict go,because they didn't give the maximum security as they said they would.(That's keys in the drawer,)and they go out to the mountains and Gomer tells Barney"if we get lost I'll make the sounds of and owl and go hooty hoot,hooty hoot and you can go chicachy chicachy like a squirl"and Barney tells Gomer"I'll just say Hey Gomer and you just yell hey Barney",and Gomer says"that'll work".Be somebody now and don't hit your grandma with a great big stick.This is Mayberry fan in Louisville saying 10-4 and signing off.David<danielsdandav46>Daniels ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 20:18:07 -0400 From: "David Browning" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: George Lindsey Appearance Hey friends, Just wanted to drop you a note about an event that is happening on September 7, 2000 in Clanton, Alabama. It is called A Touch of Mayberry and it will star George Lindsey our own Goober in a performance for the P.E.E.C.H. (Partners Enhancing Education in Chilton County).
