Watching an old Clint Eastwood movie this weekend and caught Uncle Ollie as
a bad guy and Pat Hingle as the Judge. Pat was Clarence Earp's promoter.
So we can get from Sheriff Andy to Marshall Clint in one step!

In the episode were Goober runs a contest at the filling station and Floyd
wins th "$200" prize, what's
wrong with Floyd? He talks very slow, slurrs his speach, and he's awful
mean to Goober. This seemed
very out-of-character for him. Was this the last episode he appeared in
because of his stroke? I could
barely understand him.

Subject: My "Opie The Birdman" experience
Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2002 09:24:46 -0400
I, too, have had an "Opie the Birdman" experience in the last month. We
noticed a pair of barn swallows building a nest in a corner of our front
porch roof last month. Got out the ol' binoculars and had a lot of fun
watching them build the nest and lay the eggs. About two weeks ago, all four
eggs hatched. It was fascinating watching the parents taking care of the
little ones...and boy, do they grow fast! Sadly, about three days ago, they
all left the nest...flying away one by one, just like Opie's birds do. I was
really sad, but then my darling person said...but don't the trees seem nice
and full!
And, of course....they do.

Hey gang,
I think I might like to refurbish a car to look like the squad car
Andy and Barney drove. Can anyone tell me, what kind of car was
that - what old car or cars can I use to do that?

Someone told me they could not get the photos to open from the Mayberry in the
Midwest show in my photo gallery. I had my web designer go in and make an
adjustment or two. Unfortunately, she did not get all the photos back up, but
there are some posted now under "Mayberry in the Midwest Photos" at
http://www.christianactivities.com/mayberry/ and everyone should be able to see
them now.

In the episode "Barney Runs for Sheriff," (source of the above quote) Barney
implies that the only emergency equipment in the trunk is a shovel and a
rake. If you're going for authenticity, check the episode "The Inspector,"
which includes a shot of the trunk crammed with all sorts of picnic and/or
sporting gear.
You could also put some smashed food in there in a paper sack, from the
scene in "A Warning from Warren" when Andy couldn't get the trunk to close
properly. Helen took a look inside the sack, and when Andy asked what was
in it, she replied, "It's hard to tell now."

The question about Barney's Mr. Cookie Bar prompts me to mention something.
When we were on a camping trip recently, I brought along some individually
packaged cereal bars as a convenient breakfast item. My 2-year-old daughter
requested another "cookie bar," so I said that maybe these were like the Mr.
Cookie Bars that Barney ate for his mid-afternoon pick-me-up. From then on,
we called them "Mr. Cookie Bars"!

My guess is it was a way of "greeking" Mr. Goodbar, the Hershey bar with
peanuts and chocolate. Back in those days, for some reason (legal most
likely), brand names were censored as often as curse words, unlike much later
when entire "Seinfeld" plots would revolve around Junior Mints or Snickers
bars. (Though I do distinctly remember Ford and JC Penney being mentioned on
TAGS.)

I am a Special education teacher with one dream. I want to meet Andy
Griffith and get him to autograph my picture on the wall as well as take my
picture with him. Any suggestions on how to get started. Already have
Barney's, so I know it is possible. I met Barney here in Tn. Dont think,
though, that Andy will come here especially West Tennessee,so am thinking
abotu going there. Would also like Opie's as well. How would go about
accomplishing this feat??

I will advise you right now NOT do go to Andy's home. Andy values his privacy
and he will not like having anyone invade it.
You mentioned having Don Knott's autograph. That's because from time to time
Don makes appearances at events and he signs autographs for fans. Andy has
never liked "rubbing shoulders" with the fans because, he has said, he feels
that they don't really know "him." They *know* Andy TAYLOR or Ben Matlock
but they don't KNOW Andy Griffith. He doesn't feel comfortable accepting
praise from folks that don't actually *know* him so he has kept his privacy
close to him and has never made an appearance at any type of "fan" event.
I ask you, respect Andy's wishes and don't invade the privacy that he has
worked so hard to keep for himself. He has given us SO MUCH. I think we can
honor his wishes in this. He surely doesn't "owe" us anything but I think we
"owe" him.
