I think he had a chip on his shoulder then, too. I'm sure a lot of the character actors who orbited the TAGS universe also popped up on DVD, with Sheldon Leonard being behind both shows...

But Ernest T.'s "version" is Romeena. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 07:27:20 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Opie & Floyd and Romeena Did anybody else find it strange that Opie called Floyd "Floyd" instead of "Mr. Lawson"? I believe Ernest T. was just pronouncing Ramona's name Romeena. He's not the smartest rock in the quarry, even if he does have an education. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 06:43:14 -0600 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bonanza TAGS fans, Caught the premiere episode of Bonaza on PAX this past Sunday. Lorne Greene's performance was much more over the top than I have ever seen before. But as I was watching it, I kept thinking that it reminded me of something specific and I couldn't remember what. It finally registered on me that he seemed to have gone to the same acting school as Gavin McLeod's character in "Mayberry Goes Hollywood." When he came stomping into the ranch house hollering, "Little Joe, Little Joe!" it was with the same voice as Gavin shouted, "Aunt Bea! Aunt Bea!"

Paul doesn't know the story about Myra Koontz! >>> There are things beyond the ken of mortal man that shouldn't be tampered with. We don't know everything, Dan. There's plenty going on right now in the Twilight Zone, and I think we oughta stay clear! - --Paul P.S. Maybe I DO know that story, and I just ain't tellin'! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2001 22:30:07 -0400 From: "Phil Fox" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: 1960 JL-327 Plates I'm not trying to be pushy, I hate pushy salesmen. I'm just passing along a friendly note. I was soooo busy at Mayberry Days this year that I didn't have time to pedal my plates, so therefore I still have about 50 left. so iffin you would like one (or more) jest drop me an e-mail for details and picture of them.

Johnson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Testing This is my first message after switching servers; hope I'm getting this right! Glad to hear everyone had such a swell time at Mayberry Days. Russell Hiatt is a real sweetheart and Charles Dowell a great cook!! We've loved every visit to Mt. Airy. Aunt Bee of Orlando ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 09:42:34 -0500 From: Keith Miles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: TAGS Alums on Dick Van Dyke I enjoyed the Dick Van Dyke Show fandemonium on TVLand this past weekend, and also spotted many alums from TAGS. Allen Melvin appears in several DVDS episodes, usually as an army buddy of Rob's in the flashback episodes. Also, Mary Grace mentioned that music maestro Earle Hagen provided the music for DVDS. He's a treasure! There was one episode where Rob was at the police station as a witness to a crime and the "Manhunt" music came on (a.k.a. "Barney's Theme"). It's a great song, but it just didn't sound right coming out of the DVDS. It's better when it accompanies Barney walking the streets of Mayberry with a smug but satisfied look on his face. Keith in Nebraska Gomer: [While looking at Aunt Bee's freezer] Just think...in 1953 a man named Ed was lookin' at the freezer just like we're doin' now...makes ya think, don't it! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 12:25:24 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Romeena >Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2001 09:48:24 -0500 >From: "The Hendersons" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Romeena or Ramona > > Ref: the Ernest T. Bass story "how do you do, Mrs. Wiley": >Were my ears playin' tricks, or didn't every one "introduce" >Ernest's Romeena as Ramona? (I always called her Romeena, becaus Ernest >T. did; but when she was introduced at that party/dance she seemed to be >introduced >as Ramona). > Help me out, somebody. Thanks > >------------------------------ Dear Hendersons - That's just the way Ernest T. Bass talks! It's one of the endearing things about him. Like when Mrs. Wiley calls him a creature and he gets upset for being called a "creachter". Her name is Ramona, but she's Romeena to ETB! Lots of luck to you and yours.

I was enjoying last night's episode of TAGS on TV Land (the one where Charlene gets a divorce). I laughed so hard at Barney sneezing that my side was hurting after the show ended. I had forgotten about that episode. The Pickle Story is my favorite but last night's episode is a close second. Anyway, does anyone know if Don Knotts is truly allergic to horsehair or was that an act? If it was an act, he did a great job. Also, I wanted to know if Charlene got divorced, when did she and Dud remarry? The next time we see Charlene and Dud getting married, they are only in front of a preacher to please Ernest T. Lisa "Barney, you got Andy" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make a great connection at Yahoo!

I've been contemplating building a squad car replica, but this one looks like it needs more work than the spidery bandstand. Jeff Krentz Bighead in Dee-Troit (O'Malley says "I'm driving, so I'll sit in the front") http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=596550171&r= 0&t=0 Ex NC Highway Patrol Car 390 Ci High Perform Vehicle Description As found, vintage police cruiser! Originally purchased and used by North Carolina Highway Patrol and then sold in 1965 at a state auction this 95,000 mi vehicle still has the "B" title from 1965. Originaly black and silver it was repainted white as required by law for ex NC patrol cars before being sold to public. When sold it had 35,000 or 45,00 mi and the next owner drove it until it had 95,000 mi parking it almost 20 yrs ago. He stated it still ran well with a little lifter noise and the trans would slip in reverse. It retains most of the factory original equipment, to include: Original 390 HP engine with factory cast iron freeflow exhaust manifolds, open element air cleaner, original trans and rear, both dual exhaust mufflers, 15 in steel wheels with rare dog dish hubcaps. Radio delete plate, original keys, rubber floor mat. The engine still has original plug wires! Missing only distributer cap. Unknown running condition, but was full of antifreeze when parked.All belts and hoses intact. Auto trans and 9in rear end.(I believe its a posi-unit,havent checked) I have some extra spare parts for this vehicle as well as a 1964 Galaxie Conv, a pair of 62 Thunderbirds and a 60 Falcon to be offered on ebay and parthound in the upcoming months! Vehicle Condition This car needs a total restoration!! Sitting in the field for 20 years took its toll. The factory rubber floor covering held in moisture and almost the entire floor pan needs replacement. (I do know the whereabouts of a "cheap" nearly rust free 64 custom 4dr body) The windshield has a break in it on the drivers side, otherwise all glass excellant. The frame is still solid but does have some light "scaling" on drivers side under floorboard. The trunk lip/edge also has rust.And there is rust spots here and there.Interior door panels cleaned up well, seats still presentable but need recovering. I sandblasted and painted the 15 in wheels gloss black. I dont believe there was a prettier or classier patrol car then the 1963 and 1964 NC Highway Patrol car! Originaly Tutone Silver and black with black wheels, these cars are extremely rare and often cloned! This model also happens to be the base car for "The Andy Griffith Show" mayberry patrol cars are one of the most faked patrol ! cars and this is a REAL ex patrol vehicle! I'm including a correct 1963 vintage motorola police car radio system in excellant shape with the sale of the vehicle (for free, to high bidder). If your a NC retired trooper or just a patrol car enthusiast, you'll appreciate cruising in a restored vintage police car! Theres even a national and international American Police Car Owners Club! Barney Fife where are you! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 19:13:00 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #307 In a message dated 10/10/01 10:14:39 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > Subject: TAGS alum on Dick van Dyke > > Also I swear the sexy defendent who Rob fell out of the jury box for was > ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 19:14:53 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #307 In a message dated 10/10/01 10:14:39 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > I think an Opie pattern would be a natural. > ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2001 09:01:07 -0700 (PDT) From: Brian Rose <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Welcome Back Hello, Just seeing if the digest was back.
