Pris...TAGS Hi Allan, The whole symbolism of the recently mentioned French Prison & TAGS is the point. Controversy, solved the TAGS-way, would surely end world fighting, et. al. Ted 'He's A Nut'! Schott INDPLS ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 08:04:47 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Vegetables Back in the days when homemakers were truly devoted to their profession, they espoused the philosophy learned in home ec classes all across America that you needed two green and one yellow vegetable every day. Yellow vegetables also included orange ones like sweet potatoes, carrots, rutabagas. Don't forget corn too! Nowadays, the FDA food pyramid just says 5 servings of fruit and vegetables and that's hard enough to achieve with a finicky eater! That's one reason my hubby gets a glass of V-8 every morning!!

Barney told Andy the new doc was "Grinning like a mule eatin' briars". Does anybody have any more? Becky ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 09:54:19 -0600 From: Paul Mulik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: mealtime >>>First, why did she tell Opie to wash his hands AFTER every meal. Before the meals would make more sense. Or did I just hear her wrong? That's what she said all right, "after." She may have just flubbed the line; then again, depending on the menu, my kids are sometimes messier after they've eaten than when they began! >>>Secondly, she told the boys to eat three vegetables every day, two green and one yellow. What is a yellow vegetable. Squash is the only one I can think of right off. Don't forget corn . . . anyway, vegetables that are orange in color (such as carrots and sweet potatoes) are considered by nutritionists to be "yellow" vegetables. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 11:23:00 -0500 From: "April Starnes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Andy and Barney's age I was just wondering if anyone knows how old Andy and Barney were when the show first started. They both look so young on the earlier episodes ( even though they never seemed to really age much). Also, I found pictures/stories from the Mayberry Days in Mount Airy from 1999 but not from last September 2000 (on the web site). I would love to go there someday! "I want to write my sen-tence!" "Now you're not no account Ernest T, you're not no account. You're just...ignorant." "You're just being nice."

It may very well have been a semi- auto instead of the cowboy style revolver, although Opie had been seen in other episodes playing cowboys, or western outlaws, semi auto hand guns have been around since prior to W.W.I, The gun in question would most likely be the most widely copied hand gun, the military 45 Auto caliber Colt M1911, that the US Gov. issued extensively from its inception until the late 1980's, when they started switching to 9mm auto's.

Aunt Bee may have also been talking about carrots and yams, although they're really orange.

After socks were ruled out, Andy says "basketball". Opie later tells Aunt Bea that "he just said that because last week I told him I wanted a new basketball."

I'm a traveling nurse that recently returned home from a 4 week assignment in CA. When I walked in the house, I went into shock! The cleanest thing in it was the remote control! My husband said, "I wanted you to feel like you was needed." I would haven't minded Clara coming over and picking up at all! I would have cried, but when he said that, I thought of Aunt Bee coming home, on that episode, and I laughed! Well, I gotta sweep and mop and pick up and dust, NOW! Visiting my little corner of Mayberry was a relaxing break! And cleaning your bedroom CAN be FUN! Robin ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 17:37:07 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: stove Sometimes there's a door behind the stove. Most of the time not. At some point they converted to steam-heat. Because there's a cast-iron radiator under the bulletin board (next to the book-case). Ironically, the only time I've seen a fuel connection to the stove, is when Gomer 'saves' Ange. It's an fuel-oil fired stove... I've seen a '61 Ford, 4-door for sale, in Paragon, IN. My mind is working on a Mayberry Patrol Car! A little paint, a 'bubble-gum' machine on top & I'm ready for the convention. Ted 'Electronal' Schott ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 20:44:29 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy in short sleeves I can remember just one episode where we see Andy wearing in a short sleeve shirt. This doesn't count when we see him changing or waiting for Aunt Bee to iron, etc. Am I overlooking an episode? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 21:38:48 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Exiting a car Regarding the question of the good folks in Mayberry getting in and out of cars on the passenger side.......... I always wondered about that myself, but my 15 year old son is currently taking drivers ed. In his book, there is a recommendation that you enter and exit your car from the passenger side, due to safety considerations. However, that's not very practical today, what with many of them having consoles and/or seats that are not conducive to "scooting across". By the way, please do not confuse me with the 'Skip" that left us last week. I appreciate the rule against controversy.
