Subject: Bathrooms
Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2002 01:05:32 +0000
The only times I remember seeing a bathroom was when
Gomer was in the Taylor bathroom singing 'no count mule'
and when Opie was brushing his teeth (or just wetting
his toothbrush).
However, I was watching one of those pop-up video shows
about the Brady Bunch and it mentioned that even at that
time, the producers didn't want to show a toilet, so I
immagine that bathrooms were taboo in the days of TAGS.
Just my two cents. I'd offer more but it isn't tax
deductible.

Well, ok, I will. Sure is a lot of jaw kissin' going on

their deal.

The other day on the porch of "Mrs Mendelbright's Boarding House " someone was
discussing the future of the national economy. It went something like this:
"Did you hear the Post Office is thinking about charging TEN cents just to
mail a letter?" "If they raise the minimum wage to ONE DOLLAR, nobody willbe
able to hire outside help at the store." "When I first started driving, who
would have thought gasoline would someday cost 29 CENTS a gallon. Guess we'd
be better off leaving the car in the garage!" Bless her
heart,bless her heart!

<<What did Calvin Coolidge say?>>
What happened to that scene? I remember Andy saying to Floyd, "I think he
said ' Walk softly and carry a big stick.' "
And Floyd perked up with a "Ooooo, that's good. Boy, you could really do
some damage--especially a knotty pine---could clear a whole room!"
Sometimes in exchanging Andy Griffith lines in dialogue with my friends we
embellish some lines, so this may not be 100% accurate.
But am I close?

Subject: Howard Morris
I know I risk breaking one of the rules with this observation, but I
can't help but observe that good ole Howard Morris is certainly as salty
in person as any character he has played since TAGS! I have been in more
than one encounter with Mr. Morris where some interesting turns of
phrase slipped his lips that made me cringe... but they were also sort
of humerous given the context in which he said them. Gotta love that man
if not his choice of wording!
Just sign me... anonymous! :-)

As a choral director, when I am explaining that in singing the word "the,"
you sing the long "e" if the next word begins with a vowel, and the short "e,"
if the next word begins with a consonant (yes, there are some exceptions) I
always end it with, "And E before N in chicken." I enjoy the quizzical looks
I get. Another TAGS saying I use quite frequently is when someone thinks I am
not understanding something, I just tell them, "Goober's ugly, but he ain't
stupid." One of my high school choirs even gave me a plaque with that
engraved on it. :-)

Subject: Re: bathrooms
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I thought of a third bathroom instance, at least in mention. While Andy,
Opie, Goober and Aunt Bee go out of town, Goober asks in the hotel room "Does
anyone have to go to the bathroom?" and Aunt Bee says "Oh, Goober!" and
disappears from the room for a minute (not necessarily to the bathroom
though). It was a color episode, the one where they all go to the car show...
BTW, when they showed the toilet on "Leave It to Beaver," they just showed
the tank, not the bowl. It was where Beaver kept Captain Jack, the
alligator, and it was the second episode. CBS was reportedly not thrilled
about even that.

Subject: Beaver's bathroom...
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I wonder if showing a bathroom on "Leave it to Beaver" caused a scandal
back then. Did show sponsors threaten to pull their ads? Did irate viewers
call in or write in to the network complaining about their "filthy" lack of
standards? Was a boycott of advertiser's products planned?
Of course nowadays they'd show poor old Beav actually using the
bathroom, with Wally shouting curse words at him through the door. Such is
progress in entertainment...
