For the past 8 months, our church has been searching for a minister of
music. Well, we got word last week that the resume would be presented to
the church last Sunday and the man himself would be with us this coming
Sunday.
Well, the chairman of the search committee gets up to present the
information, most of which we already had in our hands, but when he got over
to personal items such as hobbies and such, he added that the new guy is a
great fan of TAGS and is even a member of TAGSRWC. Now, I don't now if that
means he's one of us on-line guys or not, but Ron Cook, if you're out there,
I'll see you next Sunday.

Subject: Rednecks
To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
"I was listening to the Alan Jackson song today called "Its all right to be a
redneck". It has one line which sez something like "its alright to have a girl
named Thelma Lou." Do you spose Alan is a TAGS fan? or maybe the songwriter
was..it was fun to hear, but I never really thought of Barney or Andy as being
a redneck, whaddya think??"
When I was younger (I won't say how much younger) I heard a wonderful
explanation of the difference between a "country boy" and a "redneck". Based
on that explanation, I would tend to classify Andy and Barney as country boys
(their brush with the Esquire Club notwithstanding) rather than rednecks. I
don't remember too much of the bit anymore, but part of it was:
A redneck will say nasty things about your Mama.
A country boy will beat you up for saying nasty things about his Mama.
A redneck will throw his empty beer cans out the window of his pickup.
A country boy will keep his empties in the floorboard of the truck until he can
put them in a trash can.
A redneck will yell at his girl if she falls too far behind him.
A country boy will hold a door for his girl if he has to hold it for five
minutes.
A redneck will kick a dog for barking.
A country boy loves dogs and will kick the redneck who does anything to any dog.
And so on...
Does anybody else remember this? I think it was Ludlow Porch (WSB Radio, AM750
Atlanta) who kept the list, but I'm not sure.
Take care...
..Alan (I came to fill my vase)

I noticed someone mentioned this (in the Carol Channing
email)
I have an MP3 of the audio of that commercial if anyone
wants it, just email me. It's the one with Andy and
Barney and the 'immaginary' horse named Blacky.

PS: with Christmas upon us we all hear a lot of
Christmas music no doubt, and the other day I heard an
instrumental version of O Tannenbaum...everytime I hear
that song, in my head I sing Floyd's rendering of Ms.

Hello Everyone: Thanks for writing about leaving Christ! out of Christmas, I
also do not like it when people leave out CHRIST, That is the hole meaning
of Christmas, If we don't have the time to write out the whole word
"Christmas" and put Christ in it, then we are to busy and we are forgetting
the real reason that we celebrate Christmas anyway. After all if it had not
been for Christ, we would not be here. So thanks again for the support of
putting "Christ" back into Christmas! Mary From Ga.

If I'm not mistaken, Alan Jackson is an honorary member of TAGSRWC. There
are many country musicians who are devout AG fans. T. Graham Brown is one -
I think he calls his tour bus either "The Bullet" or "Bullet Maintenance" -
Jim Clark will know this for sure. Other honorary members include Sam Bush
and Jon Randall who do many "Barneyisms" in their show. Other artists have
been noted in issues of the Bullet. If Jim has time, he might clue us in on
some of the others here on the digest. Mayberry is everywhere - even touring
around the country. Makes ya feel all warm and fuzzy doesn't it?

Speaking of magic in Mayberry, weren't the Darlings always superstitious?
They relied heavily on signs and countersigns (owls flying the wrong way,
Barney riding a horse at midnight) to decide what to do next. One memorable
show had Opie getting out of a pre-arranged marriage to Charlene's baby with
the help of the old "disappearing ink" trick.

Hey to all,

Can someone help me? I know I have seen this mentioned on the digest before,
but cannot remember....What is the brand and pattern style of the blue dishes
in the Taylor's china cabinet?
Being from Ky. I would like to mention that the gold truck was on it's way to
Ft. Knox from the Denver Mint. Not the most direct route, but as Andy said
when you want to sneak somenthing in the house you don't bring it in the
front door! Can't think of a second Ky. mention right off, but I will put a
bucket on my head and think about it awhile!

Subject: FORGETFUL RON HOWARD LEAVES HIS KID BEHIND -- AT A DONUT SHOP
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2001 10:39:13 -0600
Hiddy all!
Saw this in one of my entertainment reads and thought you might like a
laugh. Enjoy!
Stephanie
'It's me! It's me! It's Ernest T!'
FORGETFUL RON HOWARD LEAVES HIS KID BEHIND -- AT A DONUT SHOP
Opie felt more like dopey when director Ron Howard pulled a "Home
Alone"-like move - leaving his son at a donut shop on his way to a
Thanksgiving vacation in the mountains.
The child star-turned-director got the shock of his life when he arrived at
Yosemite National Park in California and got a cell phone call from Fresno
police - telling him he'd left his 14-year-old son Reed 90 miles behind at a
Krispy Kreme shop!
"Ron stopped off with his family for a dozen donuts and came up one short -
one kid short, that is!" a source at the donut shop declared.
"It was like the movie 'Home Alone' where the kid gets left behind in all
the confusion of a holiday getaway. Reed came out of the rest room and found
his whole family was gone.
"Ron, his family and some friends were traveling in a caravan of three
limousines from L.A. Everyone assumed Reed had gotten back into one of the
other cars. No one realized he'd been left behind.
"Reed was clearly shocked to find himself abandoned. But he remained calm as
he told Krispy Kreme manager Duane Frazier that his dad always had his cell
phone on. And he kept saying his family would probably be back any minute.
He never dreamed it would take three hours!
"While Fresno police headquarters tried to contact Ron, two officers waited
with Reed.
"It took police an hour and a half to reach Ron because phone reception in
the mountains was erratic. Ron and family made the trek all the way to
Yosemite before they were advised that they were one Howard short!
"When Ron and other family members returned, there was a lot of hugging and
warm laughter.
"As he embraced his son, Ron joked, 'All this for a dozen donuts?' "
Howard, who directed blockbuster hits like "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole
Christmas" and "Parenthood," has been married to wife Cheryl since 1975.
Reed is the youngest of the couple's four children.
A spokesman for Ron's Imagine Entertainment film company said both father
and son were unfazed by the donut shop adventure.
"Ron has a sense of humor," said Imagine president Michael Rosenberg.
"The whole thing was a family matter and it had a happy ending."

Subject: Rudolph & Magic
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hello all,
Concerning Rudolph, I've always been a big fan, and
knew it was Hermie the Elf, but I seen a Christmas
ornament the other day, looked official and
evertything, that said "Herbie". It didn't hit me
until later that it wasn't right.
Now talkin' about Magic, I don't recall if anyone
mentioned Ernest T. Bass. But didn't Barney say
something about Ernest T. being a magician for bein'
able to get out of jail with it locked up.

Subject: Christmas Card & Thanks
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Allan,
I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say thanks for
the great Christmas card and thanks for all that you
do for the digest throughtout the entire year. And a
big thanks to Jan & Adam for everything they do. I
count it as a blessing to have you & your family as
friends, not to mention all my other Mayberry friends.
We all need to say a special thanks to Allan for
everything he does. Besides his normal job, he does
Floyd quite a few days in the year, keeps up the
Digest, the homepage, and then makes time for his
family. I think somewhere in there he tries to find
some time for eating and sleeping too, but I don't
know how.
Also, want to put out a big thanks for Jim Clark,
who without him, we'd all be a bunch of TAGS fans
runnin' around a little less organized. Thanks to him
for all he does with TAGSRWC. I don't think the
digest is big enough to include all he does for us.
But I am thankful that he does all that he does.
And then there's me. Well, I don't do much at
all. Never mind.
Thanks,
Brian Rose

I believe that Ange talked about having an old car which he was driving when he
started out for New Orleans. That would take care of the Louisiana reference.
Also, didn't Peggy say something about Louisiana or New Orleans once? Oh,
yeah, and wasn't Helen from Kansas or was she just arrested there? I'm trying
to do this from memory, so I could be wrong, but I think when Andy found out
about Helen's arrest, it was in a Kansas City newspaper. Lisa

The New states---Kentucky, gotta say Fort Knox...where the Gold Truck
originated.
Louisiana--Home Of Uncle Ollie and Aunt Nora was it St. Charles???
Kansas...Topeka rings a bell, but I can't place the reference...and I could
be wrong on that.
Did anyone see "King of Queens" Monday night? Doug earns a favor from his
wife, so he asks her to strip (don't worry, this will be clean). She says
she needs music. He is watching TV and there is a game on, he flips the
remote and what music comes on? That famous whistling of the Fishin'
Hole...and she just say frowns and says uh-uh. (and we're glad) so Doug
finds alternate music.
OK I'm about done with Mayberry RFD tapes, but I have to tell you about one
more crack-up. Sam Jones (Ken Berry) must be a very accomplished dancer
because I've seen him perform in a couple of different episodes...but in
this one in particular, Emmett shows he can cut quite a rug also. He didn't
really show his stuff at Howard's bash, with that knee trick..but is this
RFD he is dressed in this goofy Robin-Red-breast suit complete with tights
and he has a little dancing duel with Sam. It's a classic. Sam has a goofy
outfit also.
Its definitely no fun when that iron door clangs shut.

Hi Dan: This is in regards to your question about magic in Mayberry. I think
you mentioned most of them, But what about the haunted House, where Opie and
the boys hit the base ball through the window, and Barney and Gomer was
afraid to go in after it. The old Remshaw Place!. I liked that one very much.
