Kathy is a very generous person and her signing at the events is appreciated by the hearing impaired who attend. Surry Art is planning to get her more involved during Mayberry Days 2001 to reach even more people, so we should all be proud of Kathy. It is just another reason why we all belong to a very special group of people at WBMUTBB.

I'm enjoying this cool weather and beautiful trees but miss the southern hospitality and the grits!! I sure am glad to know I still have a residence in Mayberry with the best of neighbors!! Had to tell you all what my son said tonignt..... he said he was going to raise some ' money at school...I asked how?? He said I'm going to sell a pen for 50.00!! How I asked. He told me he was going to scuff it up so it would look old and tell the kids it belonged to President Kennedy!!!!! Before I could get another word out he said Andy Taylor did it with the town cannon!!!! Then he just busted up laughing!!! I told him I may have to have a few rootbeer floats like ole Barn did!!! By the way does it seem like this Angel marathon is going on for an eternity on TV land?? I miss TAGS!!! Ya'll have a Mayberry day!!

My daughter and I attended the 40th anniversary Mayberry Days in Mt. Airy. We enjoyed ourselves more than I can ever say!!! I am wondering if there is anyone who attended this event that videotaped it and would be willing to make and sell a copy. I would gladly pay for a copy as well as pay postage and handling. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2000 07:36:48 EDT From: "Maureen Kowalski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: no kisses from Ernest T. Hellooooo Dolllllll, Here's my .02 worth of opinion regarding why Ernest T/Howard Morris wasn't willing to kiss that little girl in one word: Germs. Could you imagine what would become of their health if they kissed everyone who asked them? Given that the fans are total strangers (although we may consider him one of the family), he doesn't know who might have what,and in this day and age that could be dangerous, especially with the senior citizen set. I worked at our local country station a few years back, and can verify that for one, Clint Black won't kiss anyone or let them kiss him, even on the cheek, because he doesn't want to risk his voice and his health. It could be that Ernest T/Howard is only looking out for the best interest of his health and maybe he stays in character because it is easier than explaining why he says no. It's Friday so I'm off to the Kit Kat Club with Skippy and Daphne.

I have Aunt Bee's diningroom table and sideboard that were sold at auction in Raleigh after her death. I am interested in selling these because my diningroom is so small. Do you know of any location where I could post these for sale? >> Hey To All, As a collector and an Aunt Bee lover, I have a couple of questions to pose. a.) Are these two pieces of furniture "Aunt Bee's" from what we saw on set or Frances Bavier's? b.) I know Miss Bavier hasn't been with us for quite some time but is there any kind of certificate of authenticity that this is who's furniture it came or maybe a bill of sale from the people who ran the auction? c.) How much has this furniture been used since the purchase at the auction and how has the furniture preserved? I know this is nitpicking but these are BIG questions to a collector pondering the purchase of such items. I don't know if MaryMilks gets the digest but I chose to post here (I haven't had the pleasure of meeting her and don't know her) as this is a topic that concerns TAGS and I know there are several collectors in our group. I gotta say it perked my ears up but don't know that I have the room to put it in my dining room...I don't know what the builder was thinking when he made the dining room of my house! On a personal note, I know that auctions happen every day but isn't it kind of sad to think that Miss Bavier's belongings were just put outside for auction? Didn't she have any family anywhere down the family tree that these treasures could have been passed along to? A niece? A nephew? A godchild? Oh, I think I will go do an end of the week pickle inventory, Where's my bucket with holes for my eyes to see through?

Let's see.......there was the couple who, as Floyd put it, "now they are announcing their nuptials"....the manicurist who took Piere back... the new doctor....Charlene and Dud, "Stop that wedding!"........the stranger who knew everyone (but he only wanted to "call on", so I guess that doesn't count).....Jeff Pruitt..... Briscoe Darling when he wooed Aunt Bee.....does Andelina count if she can't talk?.....Hanna and Josh.....Frankie the fair farm girl (but that idea was just put into her daddy's head by Andy)....and of course we can't dismiss Rose, "even though she ran off and got married".....just to name a few that come quickly to this chicken thief's mind.

I miss taking my kids to school coming home and having my coffee and watching TAGS. I miss it, I miss it, I miss it. It's like a best friend thats always there and then they move and their not around anymore. Well I suppose they will put it back on after awhile. I hope its soon Mayberry 4ever Elaine ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2000 09:08:50 -0600 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The Incredible Mister Limpet TAGS fans, My oldest son (5) has recently become addicted to "The Incredible Mister Limpet." I've watched it with him a couple times. One thing that has struck me is that, considering his limited on-screen time, it was some of Don Knotts' best acting work outside of TAGS. In many of his roles, he is Barney by a different name. But Henry Limpet is eally quite far removed from Barney (I think). I love most of Dan's roles, but watching Limpet makes me wish he had had more opportunities to play roles that showed us his different sides.

On the TVLand website, they said that they would be returning to their regular schedule, whatever that is for your area of the country, after the weeklong Angelfest. So whether you live near Kelsey's woods, Kelsey's crick, or Kelsey's ocean, be ready for your TAGS to come back soon! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2000 17:26:59 EDT From: "Tim Hutcherson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: mayberry reunion in danville info hey folks! there have been several requests for me to post again the info on the upcoming mayberry reunion show in danville,va. i would be glad to post this info again. the show is titled: "a mayberry tribute" :celebrating their 40th anniversary 1960-2000.it will be on saturday december 2nd at 7:oo p.m. at the averett north campus in danville,va. this building is a new facility and seats 3,000 people. the lineup of tags stars is as follows: betty lynn(thelma lou),maggie peterson-mancuso(charlene darling-wash),jean carson ("fun girl" daphne),mitch jayne,dean webb,and doug dillard(3 of the darling boys)**rodney is unable to attend do to a previous engagement**,and ronnie schell(duke slater on gomer pyle u.s.m.c. and 2 guest roles on tags). ronnie schell will also be the master of ceremonies for the show. there will be an autograph session after the show!(some performers may charge for autographs.)one of our new mayberry friends that we met at "mayberry days",phil fox, will be coming up from charlotte,n.c. to help pep up the crowd and enhance the mayberry atmosphere! also there will be a "mayberry look-a-like contest" and there will be a grand prize awarded so feel free to come dressed as your favorite mayberry character. it will add to the mayberry atmosphere and you could walk away a grand prize winner! tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. children 6 and under get in free (if sitting in parent's lap.) ***tickets go on sale this sunday(october 15th)***!!!they can be purchased at any ticketmaster location or you can call ticketmaster at one of the 2 numbers listed here:888-972-0145 or 757-262-8100 or online at www.ticketmaster.com (i've been told that the tickets will actually be released one day earlier than advertised so any of you folks who want to get a jump on it should be able to get tickets saturday!) the host hotels are holiday inn express-riverside drive at 804-793-4000,innkeeper-riverside drive at 804-799-1202 and innkeeper-piney forest road at 804-836-1700. a donation will be made to a charity that will be named at the show. danville is right on the virginia-north carolina border and is about 40 miles north of greensboro,north carolina ,60 miles south of lynchburg,virginia,and 30 miles east of martinsville,virginia. highway u.s. 29 runs north-south through danville and highway u.s. 58 runs east-west through the city. if you'd like more information you can contact the promoters,dream promotions,at 804-793-8926 or e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] or you can contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and i will help you in any way possible. if you need help in figuring where we are or how to get here i'd be more than happy to pull out my trusty road atlas and try to help you map out the best route to get here. we hope it's a great turnout for the show because if it goes well there could be another one next year!!the interest seems to be very high both here in town and outside of our own area! we hope to see alot of our mayberry friends here!!! lots of luck to you &yours, tim hutcherson "the mayberry undercover agents"-tagsrwc danville,va. ------------------------------ End of wbmutbb-digest V2 #345 ***************************** ************************************************** ~ Visit our sponsor ~ Weaver's Department Store ~ http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/weavers/ ************************************************** You must send your comments to the Digest from the address you used to join WBMUTBB or your message will not be posted.
