Hi All,
I knew that Sharon Despain wasn't played by Betty Lynn, I, among others, think
that she has an amazing resemblance to Thelma Lou. I may still have a
compelsion about it, but it ain't just me.
God Bless
Michael

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Greetings,
I have been meaning to write on a few sightings first about a week or so I
spotted Floyd on Donna Reed he was playing a real estate salesman trying to
sell some huge property that was going to be a gold mine as it turned out the
man Floyd was working for was a swindler and Floyd had no clue as to what was
going on. Then last night on Leave it to Beaver Floyd was a barber cutting
Wally's hair in a 2 that's right 2 chair shop sure must have liked that. I
collect television shows from the 50's and 60's and just got a Untouchables
video and there was a character named Stanley Adams if I'm thunkin correctly
I think he played Otis' brother if not I would like to know who he played on
TAGS. I recently got a cat "Alice" from the Michigan Humane Society and she
was sick for the first six days I had her and had to feed her with a syringe
reminds me of the Opie the Birdman episode where he was feeding the birds
with the eyedropper.Seems like things that have happened on TAGS come into
our lives sometimes.

When Andy and Helen got married, Aunt Bee moved in with Sam and his son. I
wonder who did the cooking for Andy and Opie. After all Helen said in another
episode that she was a terrible cook, she couldn't even cook Andy's favorite
dish, a leg of lamb.

I loved your story! What a wonderful experience! Thanks for sharing! Mine isn't
quite as memorable, but I will share
it anyway. I not only have a day job (running a small publication) but I have
to work nights to keep the small
business afloat. I work at a local department store and the other night Goober
(George Lindsey) came in with another
gentleman (a local jeweler). He stopped where I was working and asked how to
get downstairs. I walked him and his
friend over to the escalator and we talked about the recent Mayberry in the
Midwest and other Mayberry events. I
think he would have continued to chat but I had to get back to work. I had my
camera with me, but like you, I felt a
photo then would not be appropriate. 'Sides, I only bug em for a photo if I
need it for a story!

Hey everybody...
I am a new member to this wonderful website, and I can contain my excitement
no longer. I can't tell all of you how much I am enjoying reading all of
these messages every day. It is a definite bright spot in my day. It's so
nice to know that there are so many other people out there who appreciate
what The Andy Griffith Show stands for and who appreciate that wonderful
simple humor of the show.
Okay, now...regarding today's messages from Vol. 1, Number 316...LESLEY
RUSSELL...I AM SO JEALOUS. Oh, my stars...if that had happened to me, I
think I would have just forgotten the pork chops and taken a few nibbles
right off of Andy Griffith's arm. Pork chops...WHAT PORK CHOPS...
Anyway, I just wanted to tell everybody how extremely much I'm enjoying you
and what a comradery I feel with you, even though I'll probably never meet
you face-to-face. Thanks for keeping some innocence and simplicity and
Mayberry memories alive.
I definitely agree with Floyd...Andy really IS a prince...a real prince.
I truly do love you all...

While Thelma Lou isn't shown in church she spent some time gluing covers
back on the hymnals once. The Morrison sisters told me she may be a
Buddhist.
Helen is in church all the time. She was there just last night admiring
Aunt Bee's new choir robe.

Wow! What a great experience! Thanks for sharing that with us! It also
shows that Andy is not averse to contact with strangers, which is sometimes
the impression we get from all the talk of his desire for privacy, not
signing autographs, and not appearing at Mayberry events. Your story leaves
a "good taste" in my mouth about the real-life Andy (probably like those pork
chops did for you!).
Have a Mayberry day,
Thelma Lou

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Another reason to keep "The Pocket" in circulation:
What would Mayberry do? The spirit of Mayberry reminds us of simpler, and in
many ways, more pleasant times. Thus, a "newspaper" would be more likely to
be seen in Mayberry than a web page. After all, most of us can't sit on the
front porch in a rocking chair and read the web page. I do love the web page
and E-Bullet, but sure would miss the good ole hard copy - it's my "Mayberry
Gazette." Please keep "The Pocket" coming.

> << Why are Thelma Lou and Helen Crump never in Church? >>
I saw Helen sitting with Andy and Opie in church in the episode where the
church is left $500 by a member's will and
they had to decide what to do with the money. Boy, the choices were hard about
what to do with the money! Let's
see... choir robes, level the church, or a pool table.... hmmmm... not an easy
decision! (For those of you who don't
watch the color episodes or haven't seen this one, the pool table did not win!)

Hey Brad,
I'm not disagreeing with you about keeping The Pocket going BUT...have you
ever thought about printing out the "Archive" version of The eBullet? If you
print them, you can carry 'em around and read 'em just like The Pocket
because they'll be on paper. That's what I do.

Hey All,
Was watching the movie Shenendoah starring Jimmy
Stewart and lo and behold but what to my wondering
eyes did appear? It was our very own Briscoe
Darlin...He was clean shavin and he was playing the
role of a minister!...Makes you wonder why he didn't
marry Dud & Charlene? Maybe he got caught selling
moonshine or something and lost his credentials. I
don't think He ever lost his faith tho cause when he
checked into the hotel he made sure he had a bed and a
Bible...Oh well keep a good thought & God Bless

Hey all,
Hope I ain't breakin no rules but I was talkin to my
TAGS friend at work today and we both agreed that
there couldn't have been that many "Color Versions" of
the show and that It's about time they start showing
th B&W's again. And if they refuse we could all go to
their headquaters and protest by sayin something like
"We will not sing We will not sing!" and somebody
might even find a still in one of the offices or
something...I don't know It's just a thought...My
apologys to those of you that prefer the color
version. I be seein ya,
Z-man

Thanks Lesley for sharing that lovely experience. Just shows how nice

could've eaten anything after all that excitement and believe me, I'm a
hearty eater!!!

<<$300 Bottom shelf, behind the Ipecac.>>
Who is Miss Ellie?
For those helpful members who were trying to inform another digest
member about Ellie Walker, I think you missed the point. Randy
Everette was trying to answer one of Paul's "Mayberrry Jeopardy"
questions. He wasn't actually asking who Miss Ellie was.
I've got to admit, when I pictured Ellie Walker crouching down near a
shelf of ipecac, I got a little chuckle out of it!
