Corey - Like Mr. Lawson's cash register, you're playing my song. I also would like to have Floyd's job, but I'd need to borrow some of those Buttface cats of Darlene's to practice on first. Floyds was the center of the Mayberry scene - what a great job.

We don't need to show you our stinkin' badges >>>I would have been tempted to do the same thing, but Mayor Stoner wasn't the only one whacking on Andy's badge. I seem to remember Ben Weaver doing the same thing. Crystal M. in AL >>> To anyone reading this who works in law enforcement: would tampering with a badge in this manner be considered assaulting an officer? There oughta be a number-law that covers that. BTW, Denver Pyle's middle name is indeed Dell. George Lindsey's middle name is Smith (I had to consult Jim Clark on this one). - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 07:05:01 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Choice of words...... Folks, I don't want to sound like I'm preaching here but I want to encourage everybody to think about the choice of words they use here on the WBMUTBB Digest. There haven't been any "bad" words used lately but there has been a few words that I, myself, wouldn't be happy that my little boy was going around saying. Well, I'll just tell ya that I'm talking about the name of the cats. To me, "Buttface" is not something I want to hear coming out of my sons mouth. Remember, there are young people that get the WBMUTBB Digest. We all have a responsiblity to make our little corner of Mayberry a safe place for parents to allow their kids to play on the sidewalk without having to worry about what they might over hear so please just think about what words you choose with that in mind.

It is a really wonderful way back when type of place and Andy is all over it..Visits with Charles Dowell, the owner and talking about life when Andy was a boy is a really neat way to keep the way things were still alive.. I would highly suggest everyone that could visit this really neat eater in Mt. Airy, whenever in the area or when you attend Mayberry Days!! By the way they serve a mean Pork Chop Sandwich too!!!

So I was flabbergasted when watching the episode about Aunt Bee's Rose the other night I saw several shots of the back porch from both outside and inside. Of course, with the kitchen door moved by that time, it would have technically been the side yard. dan ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 08:02:19 -0500 From: "Dan Goodwin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: My Job When I move the Mayberry, I am laying claim to the soda fountain Walker's Drug Store. Seems to me that Opie had that job for a while. dan ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 05:13:28 -0800 From: Daryl Bramlett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [none] <<Does anyone, besides me, like the episode with the three women convicts? The convicts-at-large episode is my families favorite. We watch it almost every time we pull out TAGS tapes. There are so many classic one liners in this episode we find ourselves using them all the time. You'd better watch it Al. Maude, Al, I wont be responsible if those hamburgers burn. Al dances with Sally. You'd better call him Al. I look a little rough in my civies.

(AIT)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Celebrity question--Digest forgot to ponder on the question regarding Celebrities on the Digest If you've been here very long, you may know that Harvey Bullock, one of the great Griffith Show writers, is our resident celebrity who graces us now and then with his insights and recollections. His posts are priceless. Allan will have to answer about any others, but my guess is he'll have to give you Opie's secret club answer "I can't tell ya" We do have our own Floyd Newsome though, and the Mayberry Deputy (David Browning). I believe there are some book authors also. That's all I know, but others may comment as well. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 09:49:46 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: This n that Howdy beloved, The fatman here, mama on the phone dealin with the infamous phone cops which gives me a chance to "jaw" a little. On the subject of "Convicts at large"...what a hoot...Floyd and Barney together are the best! My kids LOVE the episode...my daughter always wants to watch the tape that has "the mean old ladies" on it. And I have been thainkin and thainkin 'bout what job I would like and I think I would (loving food) have to work at the Snappy lunch...just imagine all those pork chop sammiches (goober) and I could probably eat all those little cookies I like! Yum Yum! Mebbie even swap a couple of cookin secrets with Juanita at the diner... I have come to the conclusion that a lot of us have a Mayberry compelsion...you know like when somebody washes their hands all the time, they have a clean hand compelsion.....anyway...I'm gonna go make me a hollowed out tomato with avocado in it and top it off with a lemon phosphate and I'll be in business!

I WOULD OPEN A PRINT SHOP. OOPS,THEN AGAIN THAT MAY NOT BE A GOOD IDEA THE OTHER DAVID IN ALABAMA ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 09:59:12 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Post-Christmas note Been putting away the decorations and gifts this week now that another Christmas has come and gone and wanted to tell you about a charming Mayberry gift I received from my good friend Laura. She's our chapter's reigning Miss Mayberry and will hopefully be posting soon as Miss Peggy. Anyway she got me a ceramic red barn for my Mayberry village; remember in "Barney's First Car" on their ride thru the country they spotted the Johnson's red barn? And that's our name so isn't she clever both ways? It is really nice and I love red barns just like ThelmaLou.

Floyd was hilarious! "Al, he dances with Sally." >> Oh yes, one of the funniest ones ever! I especially love the part where Barney tries to seduce Big Maude. ("Let's dance, Maude...you're starting to get to me!") >> This episode contains one of our top five quotes: "Better phone him, Al." The look on Floyd's face when he says it to Barney is priceless.

I believe there are some book authors also.>> You're right, I can't tell you who exactly gets the Digest that are cast members from the show. "On my word as a gentleman" there are several folks that are either cast members or relatives of cast members that are WBMUTBB members and get the Digest everyday. That's one reason I've always told you all to act like you were talking right to the face of the person you're talking about when you post messages to the Digest. The one story that comes right to mind about somebody not doing that is the day that author of "Mayberry, My Home Town" (Stephen Spignesi) joined our little corner of Mayberry. I've always enjoyed Stephen's book and I told him how often I use it to look up information when folks ask questions I don't know. Basically, I was bragging on his book and told him that I was sure he'd enjoy the Digest. WELL, that VERY DAY....the FIRST Digest that Stephen ever got....somebody, I don't remember who it was now, wrote a post to the Digest BLASTING "Mayberry, My Hometown" saying that he didn't like it, etc.... Luckly, Stephen thought it was funny that I had so many nice things to say about his book and the first message from the Digest he ever got was a negative comment about it. Anyway, remember the old saying "Keep your words sweet because someday you may have to eat them."
