That's actually a very realistic thing to happen, Lisa. I grew up near
Gadsden, Alabama, which celebrated its centennial in 1940 and its
sesquicentennial in 1996. I was told it was based on two different dates
based on when it first appeared on a map and when it was actually
incorporated. Could have happened in Mayberry?

Just watched last nights episode of Andy Griffith. The
'roadside vendor's' episode. Speaking of 'who's been
messin' up the bulletin board', there's a dart board
on the bulletin board,in one scene on. Then Andy
must've taken it down, because it disappeared in the
next scene.
Did you notice the size of the squash the vendors were
selling? About 4' long!

PLEASE do not post that here on the Digest. It is copyrighted and we don't want

It is located in "The Andy Griffith Show Book" by Beck and Clark. You can

I think the dog I saw on two Bonanza episodes was old Blue. He played
Walter. A dog that was very lazy, but very wise. He was protecting the old
prospector's claim.
The prospector was Arthur Hunnicutt, and the stories featured Hoss. I always
liked those Bonanzas with the twist of humor.

Hi Lisa,
That's some mighty fine thinkin' you've been doing, but you got me to
thinkin' about
when Mayberry was founded. Wasn't there an Episode when Floyd was involved
in an on-stage
play and they (Floyd and some others) were doing the scene where Mayberry
was discovered
and founded. Wasn't the founder's name "John Mayberry"? :)
Seems like it was...... But, at my age (36) my memory has begun to fade.
Take care,

I'm sure most of you good folks already know this, but I wanted to take the
time to
give Weaver's Store a bit of praise.
Those folks sure do a great job of keeping a good selection of TAGS stuff,
and with
each order that I have received, I can honestly say that I have been 110%
satisfied. I can't imagine
the original "Weavers" being any better. I think Ol' Ben must still be
runnin' the place. :)
Thanks to Jim Clark and all the gang at Weavers. You folks do a great job!

That's an interesting observation. We do learn about "Mayberry Bridge" in
"A Plaque for Mayberry" but maybe the town itself had a different name way
back then.
Mayberry's history seems a bit sketchy, as different episodes give
conflicting information. Compare the two pageants presented in "The Beauty
Contest" and "The Pageant" -- they're not even close! In the first one,
John Mayberry (played by Floyd) starts the town, but in the version directed
by John Masters, it appears that the town was founded by James Merriweather
(played by Andy). And who was this "Lady Mayberry" supposed to be, anyway?

That would be my take on it too, Lisa. I think that Maybery was
celebrating its official centennial of the incorporation of the city,
but that it was around as a town or a village or something before that.
The area that I grew up in and still live NE of Detroit has just
celebrated its 150th year as the city of Fraser, Michigan. It had been
around as a township for long before that and was known as Erin Township
and other things before that.
My wife's grandfather died recently and we sold the family home which is
now in the middle of a pretty busy city street here. Grandma says it
was "out in the country" when they built in the 30's. I saw the abstract
of title and the earliest entry was where James Garfield (to Malcolm -
he was what we call a prex-ee-dent) deeded it to a soldier for
compensation of military service in the 1800s - pretty cool reading the
history of the parcel.

Hey all,
I got a question that might have been asked before I got here but here it goes
anyway,. Alot of the characters on TAGS have names and certain jobs. Peggy
the nurse, Mr. Foley owns the meat market, etc... However, what is Thelma
Lou's occupation? What is Otis's occupation? Thelma Lou has a house she has
to pay for and Otis's drinking must cost him a fortune... So how do they pay
for it?
Any thoughts?

Subject: Tod Andrews: First Season and Last Season
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Character actor Tod Andrews has a rare, dubious distinction of appearing in
TAGS in its first season and its last season. To some, this might not seem
all that fascinating, but TAGS was on for eight seasons. His first TAGS
appearance in 'The Inspector', episode 26, was followed by almost seven full
years before his eighth season appearance in 'A Girl for Goober', the lastly
filmed episode of TAGS. The charater actors and actresses who were in TAGS'
debut season did not appear in the eighth and last season. I'm referring to
strictly guest actors, not cast and semi-cast regulars.
His portrayal of Mr. Franklin in episode 249 has lost some of the woodeness
of Ralph Case, 'The Inspector' of episode 26. Some of that color may have
softened him up a little or perhaps he was anticipating Nancy Malone taking
him on the 'Star Trek:Voyager.'

This is for the ladies out there who watch the Lifetime channel. The next time
A Promise To Carolyn (with Delta Burke) is on watch the scenes in front of the
courthouse to see if that statue isn't the statue of Seth Taylor. They show
their movies over & over so take a look and let me know what you think.

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hey Folks,
I know you can get a bunch of Mayberry Bible Study lessons from the GREAT
site by Joey Fann (BarneyFife.com but do any of you have lessons you've
created for episodes OTHER than the one's on Joey's site? If you do, I'd like
to ask that you e-mail them to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) so I can put them on a
site here at Mayberry.com OR to give to Joey to put on his site as "extra
material."
I've been teaching the class for 2 quarters at my church here in Huntsville
and I'm getting close to running out of lesson plans. I've made one and plan
on making others but I thought if other folks had already made them...why not
collect them into a single place (BarneyFife.com would be the best place for
them but I'll have to talk to Joey about it first).
Anyway...I'm willing to collect them and post 'em back where folks can find
'em so send 'em in.

Hey TAGS fans!
Dan mentioned that Andy called Burt Mustin by his first name in the episode
where Howard was trying to join the club. I caught that too but I also
noticed that he was called Burt in the episode where Andy, Burt, Howard and
another guy were a quartet and they substitued the pick pocket guy for Howard
due to his scratchy throat. Maybe Burt got tired of being called Jud and
wanted his own name used for a change. If I'm wrong please forgive me because
I'm usually watching tv and doing 2 or 3 other things at the same time.
Have a great weekend!
