That's something that's always struck a chord with me - one of many ways I can directly relate to TAGS. As a child growing up in NC, I probably referred to most of the adults I knew by their first names. Hmmm maybe it's an NC thing, I've never thought about that possibility. The man my dad's boss for a while wasn't "Mr. Mitchell," he was "Clyde." I never referred to aunts or uncles by that title. It wasn't "Aunt Carolyn" just "Carolyn." There was never a hint of disrespect or over-familiarity. So, it makes perfect sense to me.

Beasley???) I don't recall that Ernest T's Ramona (or Romeena to him) ever had her last name (..Beasley?) identified, did she? We see her at Mrs. Wiley's party - and then in the "Class Reunion" episode we know of Ramona "Wiley" (who Barney says was crazy about him). But the class reunion episode suggests she moved away and hasn't been around for years until the reunion when she's married and such (it's a different actress anyway). So it's not likely that Ernest T's Ramona is Mrs. Wiley's daughter (though that would make for some interesting holiday family gatherings if Ernest T and Ramona got hitched). Juanita at the diner has a last name of Beasley, doesn't she? -But I don't recall a Ramona Beasley.... Does Ernest T's Ramona ever have her last name identified?

Andy was there and seemed to approve. Floyd,....I mean Mr. Lawson, was tight with the Taylor family. Opie also addressed Barney, Goober, Wally and Gomer by their first names, among others. Maybe it's a male bonding thing. He always referred to the "mature" ladies of Mayberry by Miss/Mrs., or Mizz (pre Ms.) "Last Name" (Miss Edwards, for example).....Except on one occasion, when he referred to Thelma Lou as "Thelma Lou". That was the episode when Barney sent the "single maidens of Mayberry" to Andy's house to discuss starting up a softball team so Andy could pick a wife. Opie said something like "Pa, why did Thelma Lou invite all those girls over here?". He probably called her "Thelma Lou" because we never knew Thelma Lou's last name. (I'm speculating on that one). If its' agreed by the parent, child, and friend for a youth to use a first name when addressing an elder, then its' quite acceptible and respectable behavior, especially here in the South/Southwest. Even an honor, like a family member. "I hate it when you get obtuse" Charlie "Just For Plain Guzzlin'" Varney __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I couldn't help but think of TAGS this morning as I was eating breakfast...or was it my second breakfast? I happened to stop at "the diner" for breakfast. I usually get the special (two eggs, hash browns, toast, stack of wheat's, sausage, orange juice and coffee). Having finished that and a couple of cups of "java" and after leaving Olive a quarter tip, I returned to work to remember that the secretaries had decided to have a "bosses breakfast". I had completely forgotten about it and boy, was I full. But, not wanting to be rude, I sat down and finished my second breakfast......Mmmmm, mmmmmm. I couldn't help but think what three plates of spaghetti must have felt like and was thankful that I didn't have to go for a third breakfast...

The sexy defendant on DVD was none other than Sue Ane Langdon, who played county nurse Mary Simpson in the episode "Three's a Crowd". What a difference in the two characters. On DVD, she was a ditzy, sexy, exotic dancer while on TAGS she was a sweet, innocent girl-next-door type. Mary Grace Gossage"I don't drive on the left anymore.
