The kind of horn Andy played had me scratching my head too. The Mayberry 101 book says it's a Sousaphone, but the Sousaphone is the large tube that wraps around the body and is made strictly for marching bands. There are several types of tubas, and they are designed to be held. But the one Andy plays is a B-flat tuba, I believe. If anyone can support or dismiss this, I'd love to know myself. It's just a compelshun! **Barn ------------------------------ Date: 7 Apr 2001 11:15:17 EST From: SANDRA SILS <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Car for Andy In most episodes of TAGS Andy drives the squad car to and from work. Whose car did he get into in Andy's English Valet Aunt Bee said something about Miss Edwards leaving her car in the drive and later in the show Andy mentioned her by first name, but it escapes me at the moment, when Barney asked if he wanted him to pick him up in the morning. It wasn't Clara, though.

Jack Sweet...Nate Bracey...Ralph Haynes...(did Edna Thoge ever make it?) Ramona Wiley forgets Barney??. "It has been a long time Mr. Fife. What do you know about it!" I've been out of high school over 20 years, and could probably name 80 to 85 of my class of 100. Couldn't you if you were from a small town? Of course the answer is, that the scene would not have been quite so funny. Don: In defense of Andy and Barney, and of course it did make a funny episode, but I remember no more that 2 or 3 of my class. Then I have moved away and many other things which I'm sure reprioritize, however I agree with you that in a small town you might think they would remember. I must admit though I would be hard pressed to do that myself. That has to be one of my all time favorite episodes, glad you brought it up.

We had SUCH fun listening to Andy's stories!!!! By the way, he also used old Bob Newhart "history stories" , also. Did any of you out there have a wonderful history teacher that used Andy's albums and stories to teach and enhance history? I would like to know. hey from the "slightly-budded-greened-out-treed" Ozarks I was a little past the 8th grade at that time but do remember in the south Andy Griffith records. Bob Newheart as you mentioned was popular at about the same time. Dolly _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Barney once says to Andy, "You're almost as funny as Floyd. Why don't you two team up? Call yourselves Frick and Frack." Perhaps this is a reference to a real or imaginary vaudeville act (like Mr. Bones and Mr. Jones). ****************************************** Paul: I remeber the Frick and Frack episode. Do you recall "Why don't you get a job on one of them excursion boats?" and "Why don't you go buy a rubbber nose and join the circus?"

Linda"Skippy" Ruch ******************************************** Linda: I'm sure that was written into the script unless someone else knows differently. Such as "You know what's wrong, it's apathy (pronounced like Apathie), Andy, you mean apathy, Barney that's right pal, apathie. What a hoot that one was.

Not only could Andy get kids to listen - but Otis craved for him to tell a bed-time story so he could go to sleep. On this occasion, Andy - complete in boxer shorts - told about Jack & the Beanstalk. Barney could also tell some tales. One of my favorites is about the prune pitting beasto-maristo - you know, that Winslow girl -ugliest girl he'd ever seen. Linda - a Goober in mascara Mayberry Minuet Man? I guess you're talking about Homer in "The Senior Play." Goober: Did you ever see a Minuet, Andy? Andy: Not lately. Paul ***********************************************In Regard to the beasto mariesto,"that cheese sandwitch stuck right in my throat, good deal though half interest in the prune pitting business" I recall as a child my Mother and Daddy also telling stories like that(Andy/Barney) My brother was always a ghost teller spoiler, doing something in the middle of it to sacre us out of our wits. Myabe this is a southern thing. Does anyone else remember doing this as children? Dolly _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Moonshining is still going on! About four years ago I moved into a house where someone had left us a nice full Mason jar full of PGA. And about six years ago at a sorority sister's wedding reception (in her parent's barn and barnyard- complete with hay wagon iced down with beer) on towards the shank of the evening, a Mason jar or two started to circulate. It's easy to see how Barney always got so easily gassed! ****************************************** Yep: That stuff is plum nasty. In Gainsville Georgia in the very early 60.-'s, there were some deaths from it to soddering the wires together and creating lead poisoning, "That ciders gone hard".(Mrs. Mendlebight) Dolly _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Whose car did he get into in Andy's English Valet? In the uncut version of TAGS for this episode, Aunt Bee tells Andy that one of her friends (I'm not sure of the name), has left her car parked in the Taylor driveway. She further tells Andy before she leaves that Andy is welcome to use the car. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 07 Apr 2001 20:35:45 -0500 From: Paul Mulik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Andy's instruments >>>Hhhhmmmm... regarding the different instruments that Andy plays on the show, I know I'm not as educated as many of you, but as I recall he plays (well, the guitar of course on many episodes), the tuba on "The Mayberry Band", he plunks a few notes on the piano on "Barneys Physical" and I think he plays a horn (I want to say French Horn, but I'm not sure) on "The Sermon for Today". ...are there more?? >>> We're getting close here. There's the guitar in numerous episodes, the tuba in "The Mayberry Band" and "Sermon for Today" (sorry, no French horn in any episode), the organ in "Church Organ" (as mentioned yesterday) and the piano in "Barney's Physical." There's one other episode in which he plays the piano, and there's still one more instrument that no one has gotten yet. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 07 Apr 2001 20:35:45 -0500 From: Paul Mulik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Andy's instruments >>>Hhhhmmmm... regarding the different instruments that Andy plays on the show, I know I'm not as educated as many of you, but as I recall he plays (well, the guitar of course on many episodes), the tuba on "The Mayberry Band", he plunks a few notes on the piano on "Barneys Physical" and I think he plays a horn (I want to say French Horn, but I'm not sure) on "The Sermon for Today". ...are there more?? >>> We're getting close here.
