I've gotten some pieces from different people on ebay. All of them have been made by a company in England, called Churchill, and are microwave and dishwasher safe. I'm going to check out the Betty Crocker site. We eat on them as we listen to TAGS at supper time here in middle Georgia.

Howard Sprague may have had a mild, sort of momma's boy image (I hope I'm not breaking rules here - -- sorry if I am) but he sure stood up to that Clyde Plott in "Howard's Main Event". I know it took some time, but he decided that his relationship with Millie was worth protecting, and I was proud of him for standing up to Clyde. And didn't Clyde back down quickly when he saw that Howard would fight him! It was great and gave me a new respect for Howard. Of course, the next guy who liked Millie wasn't so much of the backing-down type, but as Andy said, "Howard, it don't work that way every time." ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 15:55:13 CST From: "The Hendersons" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: laugh tracks on TAGS Someone mentioned hearing laugh tracks repeated in TAGS episodes. (The contributer mentioned they could recognize certain tracks in other TAGS shows.) Here is a little bit of trivia I read in Lucille Ball's autobiography, "Love, Lucy". She mentions that her husband, Desi, made a point of recording the laughter in the audience, and that he made the laugh tracks from his beloved I Love Lucy available for OTHER shows to use; After all, The Andy Griffith Show was filmed at Desilu. Perk up your ears! Who knows, you might one day hear "Ricky" laugh during a scene in TAGS!! Who knows........ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 21:42:21 -0000 From: "Charlie Brakefield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Different Things >Hey Charlie, what's a black and white set???? >Ha, ha...just kidding. >CM in AL Crystal- Maybe there never was such a thing as a black & white set... possibly the WORLD was just black and white back then!!! Speaking of being old... Does anyone remember a 60's song called "Summer Place" or it might be called "There's a Summer Place"? The reason I ask is because the song playing in the diner during Flora's first appearance sounds alot like "S.P." It's the episode where Goober keeps hanging out at the diner because he wants to go out with Flora. - -Charlie _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 14:14:38 -0800 (PST) From: Robin Jaynette <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #27 I wanted to add my 2 cents about "Blue Willlow China"...I have some new Blue Willow, purchased about 2 years ago, the stamp on the back says it is made by: New Churchill in Straffordshire Endland ( maybe Malcom Merriweather knows where that is) I got it from Lowes Food (a grocery store). I also have some old Blue Willow, that belonged to my grandmother and is at least 40 years old, the stamp on the back of it is all written in Chinese (So I guess it is Blue Willow China) I bet thats the kind Aunt Bee used in he chinese Restaurant (haha). My grandmother loved hers , I have such fond memories of all my family eating Sunday Dinner at her house on Blue Willow Plates (she cooked like Aunt Bee too), gosh now I am hungry for some cornbread and cabbage!

Lately I've been listening to a lot of music by the vocal band Rockapella. They're sort of a "doo-wop" group; you've probably heard their Folger's Coffee and Coca-Cola commercials. They were also the "house band" on the kids' show "Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?" for several years. Anyway, the other day, while listening to one of their songs, I was pleasantly surprised to hear a familiar voice. In the middle of this song, a brief snippet of the voice of a TAGS cast member can be heard. Who can name the cast member and the song? (I'll bet Mike Creech knows this one!) - --Paul Mulik P.S. Those of you who correspond with me regularly, please note my new email address. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 07:16:19 -0600 From: Paul Mulik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Civil War Songs The other day someone posed the question about the three Civil War Songs heard in the episode "The Horse Trader" (the one where Andy and Barney try to sell the cannon). The songs are "When Johnny Comes Marching Home," "Kingdom Coming," and "The Girl I Left Behind Me." The last one is actually a Revolutionary War song, that seems to have had a re-birth with the Civil War. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 21:01:02 -0600 From: "Linda Poindexter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Laugh Tracks Wow, Mike, we must be kindred souls. I've noticed the same thing about laugh tracks. Although I thought that woman said "uh-oh" with a chuckle on the end. It's on at least once every "I Love Lucy" show. Oh, and remember how, in the 70s, all the shows used to say, "_______" was filmed in front of a live audience." All the sitcoms of the day used to do that -- when did they stop doing that? Did the audiences die? (bad joke). ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 23:45:41 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #27 In a message dated 1/18/01 1:48:39 PM Central Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << I assume it was a ford, since they had the contract, but does anyone know anything else about it? >> Believe it or not, not all of the vehicles on TAGS were Fords...only the new ones and the squad cars. I've seen a few Chevys here and there, including a '65 Impala that popped up twice in last night's color episode (the one where the stalker tries to get Howard to quit seeing Millie). So that doesn't necessarily mean the Darlings' truck is a Ford, although it may be.
