Re: kissing Kissin' birmingham hotels/motels Teaching with TAGS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 18:51:53 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy, the kissin' fool! Hey all...regarding Ange kissing his ladies...remember the episode (#163) "Andy's Rival"? This is the one where the handsome male teacher comes to town to work on a school project with Helen. Andy gets really jealous and calls Mavis Neff for a date which makes Helen mad. Afterward, Andy and Helen have a big argument on Helen's front porch then kiss and make up. And they really kiss cause Andy is kissing Helen while she is still trying to argue with him. Of course, it works and she finally stops talking and kisses back! A great ending! Also in this episode, we get to see a little streak of jealousy in Aunt Bee. The scene in the kitchen where she is telling Andy to get out there and impress Helen before that guy steals her away is hilarious. I realize this was a post-Barney episode but it is well worth seeing over and over!!

I wonder what she did for a living....she had the obligatory "single girl in town" house to herself, and I don't remember where or if she worked. She was a cutie though....that Andy was a son of a gun with the ladies. Course Barney was the real ladies man....I guess 'cause he was so kind behind the eyes..." see yall next time, cause I'll be there, you can count on that, If I say I'll be there I'll be there....... The Fatman ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 19:28:45 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy kissing women To: booboo6572. Andy did kiss a few of the women. Miss Peggy (who was a doll and he should have married) got a kiss after their double date with Barney and Thelma Lou went to the lake. It was not a long passionate kiss though. In an earlier episode, he also kissed the county nurse named Mary. Barney thought they were going to get married and threw a surprise party for them and they went into a long kiss at the end of their date. He kissed Helen Crump several times. And at the high school reunion he kissed Sharon Despain! He also kissed Thelma Lou on the cheek to scare her back to Barney while he was getting kissed by Ellie Walker!! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 19:32:50 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 1 more kiss When Charlene Darling Wash comes into town to get a divorce from Dud is another episode where Andy does some kissing. ACTUALLY, he's on the receiving end. Charlene grabs him and kisses him...good. Let me tell you, she kissed that guy right ON the mouth!!!! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 16:46:12 -0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #304- O'Malley Debbie DuBose wrote that O'Malley's car was preyin on her mind- how did O'Malley plan to get home from town? I have another one from that episode. At the beginning of the episode, Floyd & Barney are out of gas & walk to O'Malley's cabin. Where did they get the gas so Floyd & Sally could drive to town for groceries? Just wondering.

Let's all chip in and buy our own network. Then we can have TAGS playing 24/7. Any time you couldn't find something really great you wanted to watch, flip over to Andy!! Think about it!!! I'll put up the first dollar. Who's next? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2000 15:27:29 CDT From: "DEBORAH DUBOSE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Andy Kissing the Other Nurse Mary Hi, yall! (I get the feeling the Fatman is trying to tell us we've been punctuating "y'all" all wrong (and, no I ain't being mean by calling him Fatman' because that's what he calls himself.) Are we, Fatman? Punctuating yall wrong, I mean? Anyway, back to Andy's kissing. His kissing one of the Nurse Marys (as played by Julie Adams) has already been mentioned--you know, the one who gave that shot to Rafe. But Andy also kissed another Nurse Mary, this one played by Sue Ann Langdon, I think that is her real name. Remember how he and she were trying to get a date to themselves but Barney kept barging in and how finally Andy had to court her right out in the convertible in front of the entire town, but it was OK because everyone was singing and dancing so hard they couldn't hear them anyway? Well, that boy landed one right on her mouth. He shorely did. He gave her some good, as he likes to put it. Laura Lee Hobbs, dime store clerk & gold truck watcher, but I love to see a good kiss better than anything! "Barney, they're doing it, they're doing it!" (that line slays me) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 20:40:33 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Johnnycakes In a message dated 9/4/2000 9:38:12 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << I've been told johnny cakes are the same as cornbread but it contains sugar. >> I put sugar in my cornbread and still call it "cornbread".

Janet, I agree with you 100%. Sometimes when I think about Andy's personality, I think of the line from the poem "If": "If all men count with you, but none too much." It's as if he allows himself to only get so close with anyone and then he backs away. The question is, was he always this way or did the pain of loosing his first wife (and perhaps his first love, too, that Sharon DeSpain) cause him too much pain? And remember, he grew up without a mother. We don't know how old he was when he lost her. Maybe he was just tried of losing people he loved. I know he was closer to Barney than with anyone else. But if you think closely, he really didn't open up with his personal life to Barney either. Not the way Barney did with him. Barney carried his feelings on his sleeves. Within seconds everyone knew exactly what was going on in his life; not so with Andy. We never saw an episode of him thinking about his wife (just a small reference once that he sometimes missed being married and got lonely). Like Janet said, in spite of his many friendships, Andy was in many ways a loner. So many people counted on him and yet he seemed to lack the confidence to count on any of them. Maybe after he married Helen he was able to open up again. I surely hope so. After years of giving, surely he deserved to receive.

A real Prince." ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 20:57:15 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Speaking of Kissing One thing needs to be reinforced. As Daphne said - "Skippy, you don't kiss a cop on duty". A word to the wise..... Linda - Goober with lips ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2000 20:14:18 -0500 From: Mike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: funny lines Hi Gang... First a note to TV-land....I missed the marathon, can you run it again this week, LOL Just kidding of course, it was actually a great birthday present and I caught a big majority of the episodes. One thing that always amazes me about TAGS or any show is that no matter how many times you see an episode, you catch something new. I have seen the episode about Opie and his history lesson with the new teacher Miss Crump, many times but over the weekend it was the first time I heard a great line out of Barney. When Andy wants Barn to tell him about the emancipation proclamation, he says to Barney,"go ahead, I'm all ears!" and Barney quickly snaps back with "you always were" LOL. It was kinds quick and soft spoken, and I noticed several of those types of barbs that I had not heard before, probably when there was other room noise or outside distractions. Anyway, ole Andy certainly was not short in the ear department in his earlier days like on TAGS, but as he aged, his face kinda filled out to even things up. Oh, one more thing I always wondered. When the governor came to skake Barneys hand, why didn't he pay his fine while he was there. Put that in your smike and poke it.

Three days of TAGS was just INCREDIBLE. We orginally thought it was ending Monday morning at 6AM, only to find it was running until this morning (Tuesday) at 6AM, and even then I wished it didn't have to end. Without a doubt in all of TV, TAGS is the best..........Thanks TV Land, you did Mayberry Proud!!...Dave ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2000 21:48:13 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Passing of Jean Speegle Howard The L.A. Times is reporting today that Jean Speegle Howard, the mother of Ron and Clint Howard, died Saturday in Burbank, Calif., of complications from heart and respiratory illness. She was 73. Mrs. Howard was an actress who appeared in several movies and TV shows. I probably remember her most vividly from her scenes in "Apollo 13," where she played Jim Lovell's mother, Blanche. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Mrs. Howard.

Since the subject of kissing came up..... have we ever seen Andy kiss > > any of his girlfriends?? Ever seen the episode when Andy's high school sweetheart Sharon came back for the reunion? va-va-va- voom!! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 23:39:33 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: kissing You know after I asked about Andy kissing any of his girlfriends I saw that episode that night. How funny.. had I just waited a few hours I would have answerd my own question. I guess I thought of it because did'nt happen all that often.

Of course that would be before he met her pharmacist friend, Don! "Wouldn't you just know his name would be Don!!!" Sandy in Saudi __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Many of the episodes teach lessons that are good at any stage of life, and it's impossible to find good G rated shows to use! I can think of several with Opie that would be good - "Opie the Birdman" springs to mind immediately. My question is this: have any of you used TAGS episodes for this and how successful was it? I know it's been used in Sunday School lessons, and I opvioously want to stay away from the religious side, but there are so many good lessons that we learned as kids (way back when!). Any teachers out there?
