Just a question...? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 12:27:03 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: the Taylor bedrooms << I was thinking there may have been 4 bedrooms upstairs in the Taylor House but maybe somebody can indeed narrow it down to 3. There's Andy's room, there's Aunt Bee's room, there's Opie's room and I think there must be another room used as a guest room. I know everyone doubled up with Nora and Ollie brought the boys for a visit but I don't think Otis stayed in Andy or Opie's room when Aunt Bee was the Warden...>> The Taylor's home had 4 bedrooms in most episodes, 3 when it was more convenient for the script ...such as when Opie was overjoyed when our man in a hurry, Malcolm Tucker decided to stay overnight and sleep in his room, thereby allowing Opie to sleep "adventure style" on an ironing board between two chairs. In "Aunt Bee the Warden" and "Gomer the Houseguest", there was definitely a 4th bedroom and/or separate guest room. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 13:13:24 -0500 From: "Shebudnik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #103 > > I understand that Ernest T.

I was surprised when they spoke to him of his directing. I thought he was such a humble person who did not have much nice to say about Aunt Bee. Not really NOT nice, just that she was extremely difficult with which to work and nothing like her character. Has anyone else heard differently? Andy Griffith verified this information. I suppose whichever, she still did a great job. Dolly _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

This past weekend I saw 'Ben Weaver' in the musical "State Fair" as one of the big-time hog judges. BTW there was a wonderful scene during the canned goods judging that reminded me of the pickle episode...perhaps the writers took a few cues from it. Welcome to all the new members.

My first memories must have been at about age 4 and watching 'Andy of Mayberry' on daytime tv. I have a very vivid memory of being inside on a snowy day waiting for my older sister to come home for lunch (for you youngsters out there, many school children trekked home for their noon meal!) Anyways, I was looking out the window wondering when my sis would be showing up and my daddy said "Not for a while, come over here and watch Andy & Opie with me." So my first recollection of watching TAGS was on my daddy's knee in his beat-up recliner. Now I sit in my own beat-up recliner and watch those same shows. All is right with the world! (as long as I have TVLand! :-)) ~the groovy misspoovey~ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 14:15:08 -0700 From: "Larry Johnson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #103 Hello Andy Fans, Can I ask a question many will know? Who was the first Floyd? I saw him in the episoed where the visitor knew everyone because he had taken their home paper. Also was that a different Wally? And did the stranger buy the gas station? If so he must have sold it to Goober.

Yes, Andy did play another instrument - the trombone. As I recollect, he got his start in church music - - a Moravian trombone choir, I believe. (Might be wrong about that part, though.)

She was a real cutie and had a great personality, could sing and had an impressive dowry (boulders, etc). None of the other girls had a dowry. Also, his stomach muscles tightened up when he was around her. Charlene thought he was as pretty as a pink rose and strong as a tree. That would shake-up any southern gentleman. Remember too that when Andy told Briscoe that Charlene made him nervous, she wisely said "That's love". But..... I think Andy was thinking ahead about having Briscoe as his father-in-law - and all those bright, energetic brothers-in-law he would have inherited. It's enough to make a person want to drink mulberry squeezins... Linda - this Goober married a bayou boy - no strong boulders but I got some alligator shoes out of the deal ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 02 Apr 2001 22:06:44 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: local clubs?

Hey everybody, I've got a question that has probably been answered before but I either wasn't a member then or missed it (which is entirely possible!). Here it is... How many times did Barney accidently fire his gun into the floor or ceiling or wherever? Thanks in advance... Jacob in Jackson, TN "Nip it!
