Mike wrote: ... I guess they had her mixed up with Ellie Mae Clampett, Miss Walker never used her middle name on the show. >>> Mike is correct. Ellie Walker never had a middle name in any episode, neither printed nor spoken. Her name on her diploma from Bernard University (seen in her first episode, "Ellie Comes to Town") is Elinor Walker, Ph. G. For them that don't know, that's Pharmaceutical Graduate, not Pharmacy Gal. The misunderstanding about Ellie's name stems from the following line spoken by Andy in episode #22, Cyrano Andy: "Ellie, may I say, 'behind that pretty face you've got a awful handsome brain?' " Apparently, some people hear this line as "Ellie Mae, I say...," hence the confusion. BTW, someone at Columbia House can't spell worth a lick. They've credited Elinor as "Eleanor." On another tape, they mention something about "Goober and his brother Gomer." They should have checked with us first! - --Paul PS They wanted to give me a Ph.D., but I told 'em I already had a post hole digger. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 May 2096 20:46:35 -0500 From: "Dale Robinson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: MAYBERRY R.F.D. BOOK - SPECIAL SALE I want to thank Allan Newsome for the opportunity to offer the book "A Guide to Television's Mayberry R.F.D.," which I co-wrote with David Fernandes, to my fellow bulletin board members at a reduced rate. We have a few dozen left and are offering them for $15.00 each, which includes all shipping charges. The book normally sells in the $30 - $40 range, so it is at least 50% off the regular price. All 78 episodes are fully detailed with cast bio's, trivia and references to the Andy Griffith Show. It is the sequel to our first effort, "The Definitive Andy Griffith Show Reference." The R.F.D. book is hardbound and its 235 pages include pictures, detailed cast biographies and bio's on the directors and writers of the series. Actress Arlene Golonka (Millie) was kind enough to write a beautiful Foreword. We would be happy to sign your book upon your request. If you are interested in buying the book, please send a check or money order for $15.00 to: Dale Robinson 691 West Michigan Ave. Jacksonville, Illinois 62650 Thank You, Dale P.S.

It is so nice to know that we can call ourselves friends. We all have something in common that is truly good in this world today. I live in a small community in Northern, Ontario Canada and it is very friendly and peaceful. I happen to be the funeral director. Every summer we have a celebration in our little town at which time we have major bands come in from all over to perform. One year one of these bands "Trooper" were here and they used my funeral home for a place to get ready before they performed. We became friends, I took them on a boat ride down the Ottawa River and they had a great time. About a month later they did a story on their web site and told of the wonderful time they had in our little community. They said in their story that it was like spending time in MAYBERRY. They were "Men in a Hurray" , but after awhile they learned to "just slow down and take it easy" ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 23 May 2001 01:51:26 -0500 (CDT) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (David Lockhart) Subject: Favorite One-Liners My brother and I, use to be really shy when we was young. Relatives of ours, use to always call us the Darling boys. So my favorite one-liners is directed to the Darling boys. "You got to watch that...Here that boys, no yelling at the table! "Boys, get on your old clothes there is work to be done!" "They're all keyed up". ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 23 May 2001 06:00:28 -0000 From: "Chico & Carrie Viars" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Bernard P Fife (or is that "Five"?) This has probably been addressed about a hundred million times, but what did the "P" stand for? We'll see ya!

I have seen this episode dozens of times but had never noticed Opie riding his bike up to the courthouse on the sidewalk! I guess there ARE two sets of laws- one for the PO-lice and his family, and one for the ordinary citizen. Also, my husband, son and I watched the Luck of Newton Monroe last night and had never seen the beginning when Barney cathes the fly and then lets it go because "it is Sunday." " A lot of people lie at lunch, what of it!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Well, that same local station had another promo contest where you watched for the character of the day and then registered on their website. We were notified yesterday that my hubby won $2700! It's just in time to help pay for repairing his boat - yep, just like Andy, he loves to go fishing (me too!) Imagine being paid to watch Mayberry?!!!

Hey Paul, Mike, and all, Thanks for setting things straight, Paul. I'm just all filled up with humbleness. Mike...you have a right to be MIGHTY proud and I'll have to go write "Mike knows more than me." a hundred times on Miss Crump's blackboard. Not 99 times, but a hundred. :-) - -- Allan ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 23 May 2001 09:32:12 -0500 From: Tim Bushong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #143 > > Which leads to a question: Other than TAGS and TAGS-related programs (RFD, > Gomer Pyle, etc., and let's eliminate Matlock, too.) what are other > programs (radio and TV) in which actors from TAGS appeared together? > > Scott "sweetly disposed, but dumb" Gamel > Hey Scott- We just watched the original "The Shaggy Dog" and the 2 main cops are (forgive me but I don't know their names): 1.

An instructor in the NC Community College system, Mr.Brower is the author of MAYBERRY 101: BEHIND THE SCENES OF A TV CLASSIC (Winston-Salem: John F. Blair, Publisher, 1998.) He will explore North Carolina influences evident in the show, the experiences of actors on the set, and other aspects of the popular series. We also expect Mr. Brower to use several film clips from the show to illustrate his talk. Mr. Brower's appearance is being sponsored by the North Carolina Collection, with co-sponsorship by the Friends of the Library. His talk, which will be at 5:30 pm., will be preceded by refreshments at 5:00 in the Wilson Library Lobby. This talk is being offered in conjuction with the opening of a North Carolina Collection Gallery exhibit entitled "Andy Griffith: Chapel Hill, Mayberry, and Beyond ...." A special preview of the exhibition will be offered at 4:00 pm., also on June 14th. This exhibition will officially open June 15th and run thorugh August 22nd. Through photographs, printed materials, and various memorabilia, the exhibition will trace the life and career of one of America's best-loved entertainers. Griffith, born in Mount Airy, N.C., attend the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and is one of the University's most recognized alumni. Perhaps most famous for his roles on "The Andy Griffith Show" and "Matlock," Griffith has also starred on Broadway and in dozens of motion pictures and television productions. We hope you can join us on the 14th for what we believe will be a highly entertaining and informative evening. And please visit the exhibition during its June 14th through August 22nd run in the North Carolina Collection Gallery.
