A little off the subject, but since they drank "Coke" on TAGS - there was
never Cocaine in Coke.....This is an urban myth....I checked it out with the
Corporate office......It isn't true......I don't think Andy would stand for
it either.......

Subject: Brand names
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I just had a memory prompted by a posting today. When we first moved
here there was a soda shop where you got a bin similar to the old wooden
Coke boxes. It held 24 bottles and you went around the shop picking out
what you wanted to fill the bin. I don't remember what brand they were
either but they had unusual flavors like pineapple and the bottles looked
like those at Wally's.

I have always loved the names of the soft drinks on the show and especially
how Floyd seemed to relish the flavors. Somebody mentioned soft drinks used
to be called "dopes" and that's what they were called on the mill hill where
I grew up. Since folks working in the mill were not allowed to leave the
looms, soft drinks and snacks were brought around on a little cart call the
"dope wagon." It was a profitable business, the richest guy on the mill
hill was the guy who ran the dope wagon.

Now why didn't anybody come to write a book about Mayberry? Its seems there
are books galore now, but back in the day, people just wanted to make motion
pictures about Mayberry. There was the guy who framed shots with his
fingers (who kept them from cutting down the big tree) the bank job people
(lets ask some questions about you now, Pat) and of course the Hollywood
movie, "Sheriff without a gun".
#1 I would say that the time Andy was consistent with discipline was Alcohol
and Old Lace. The Morrison Sisters tried to bend the law and say they were
just selling moonshine for special occasions, but you know what happened
(Barney got an Axe, and pow pow pow)(Episode 17).
#2 There is an episode where Andy is painting, but I can't recall which
right now.
He also is the one that gets Fluffy the cat (or what is his mother) off the
roof. He often tidy's up the cells. (sorry now Ep numbers on this one)
#3 I think the best example of Andy and Barney going above and beyond is
Episode #28, "Andy Forecloses" when he and Barney start the "Save the
Scobies Fund"
A month or so back I mentioned modern-day advertising slogans that may have
gotten their start back o TAGS (Just Do It and Call the Man). I recently
noticed a term used "Amber Alert" that also has roots on TAGS. Today, I
believe, it is for a very serious situation involving a child abduction
(named after a girl named Amber) but Barney mentioned once that an "Amber
Alert" meant that either he or Andy was awake and on call at all times.

Hey Rich and all! I went to a two room school house in Northern New York
state and I had one of those Disney bus lunch boxes!! I was so proud of it!
I remember all my sandwiches were on homemade bread my mother made and we
had little bottles of milk with a cardboard cap ( cost 2 cents). I had the
same teacher for 1st thru 3rd grades, in the same room (Mrs. Thomas): each
year you would just move back a row until 4th thru 6th grade which was in
the other room. We would gather every morning for music and sang songs like
"Little Brown Church" (the one I love to hear Malcolm Tucker sing) or "Down
in the Valley" like Miss Peggy sings with Andy (my favorite of all!) I
remember tying my 2 pennies in the corner of my hankerchief for milk and
actually believing the portrait on the wall at school was of Ruth Bailey,
our lunch lady, not, in fact George Washington. (Now remember Andy thought
his blind date looked like Benjamin Franklin, these things can happen) I
remember us taking Friday afternoons to gather the whole school (about 20
students) to play Bingo for penny candy and we used corn because we ran out
of chips. I remember my teacher crying when school prayer was deemed
"unconstitutional" and telling us we could still pray silently. All the
sights and smells of that school house are vivid in my mind and the
innocence and love I had there I see each day in our beloved Mayberry. I
cherish those memories and I am so glad to have a group of people around
that understands what is really important in life. I am only 46 years old
so I feel very lucky I grew up where I did (my brother is a deputy sheriff
and still lives there). Thanks for letting me share.
Lots of Luck to You and Yours, MER

Subject: Andy Griffith downloads
I recently downloaded WINMX (www.winmx.com) and I have found lots of good TAGS
and Andy Griffith stuff to download.
try it out yourself!
Also, for all you football fans (go clemson!, go broncos!) there is no way to
get the season started off better than to listen to "what it was, was football"
You can find that there as well! You might spill your big orange drink from
laughing so hard!

Hey, Todd...
I just thought I'd help you find those episode numbers from all the
wonderful suggestions you got from other Andy fans. I know there are
discretions in episode numbers due to different books having them listed in
order of airing or in order of filming. So, I'm giving you both numbers
for these episodes...the first number is the order in which they were
filmed...the second number is the order of original prime-time broadcast on
CBS. Of course, if there is just one number, then the airing and filming
numbers were the same.
Okay...in order of how the suggestions were listed...

It is Back Bay Boston . When the 1985 reunion film was done.
It showed Andy driving a car with Ohio tags,I think there was some
reference made to Cleveland , Also, when he saw Briscoe Darling,
Briscoe asked " You been gone , Sheriff ?"
and Andy said About 20 yrs"
Sorry if this is old news....

>>>I know what they called them on the show ("Nectarine Crush" and
"Huckleberry Smash") but what's the brand on the cooler, if it weren't
"greeked" as they say in the business? That has always
made me wonder.
It was a Pepsi machine, with the name blacked out.

Hey all,
I'm a native of Michigan, and thus a drinker of "pop". As a kid, my family
often spent summer vacations visiting Grandma and various kin in Tennessee.
When accompanying our cousins to the gas station (it was soooooo Mayberry),
they would ask, "What kind of Coke ya'll want?" When we asked what they
were talking about, they looked at us like we were from Mars, and replied,
"Seven-up Coke, orange coke, root beer coke," etc. We thought it was great
asking for "orange Coke"! I know that some folks as far north as
Evansville, Indiana call everything "coke", as I had the same experience
there, thirty years later while visiting a friend (talk about Deja Vu).
I've also visited New Hampshire, where it was called "tonic", and central
New York state, where it was soda. Is Andy and the gang not refering to it
in proper North Carolina parlance on TAGS? Hold on to your regional slang!
That's what makes visiting different places so much fun!
Rich in Indiana (blessed with two little Opies)

Subject: Back Bay where??
> Today's Mayberry Match Game Clue: BACK BAY _________ .
Answer: Boston. (Where Mrs. Wiley thought Ernest T. was from. Must've been
that
accent he used to portray Oliver Gossage, Andy's cousin.)
Here's a question: Is there a Front Bay or a Side Bay Boston? Maybe someone
close to Mass. can answer that for me. :)
