Some catch phrases: (although I could probably think of many more)
"Just jump in where ya can and hang on....."
"More power to ya"
"Huh..yeh....huh...yeh...huh...yeh" (Warren)
Also, in the episode where Aunt Bee wins the prizes worth $4,850 (I believe),
the tax is (in round numbers) $1172. According to the calculator on my desk
(and it's a goooood machine), that puts Aunt Bee in around a 24% to 25% tax
bracket. Seems that if she didn't work outside the home for pay, that is a
pretty high bracket. They shouldn't consider it Andy's income because SHE won
the prizes and they aren't married so they can't file a joint tax
return.....Perhaps Andy filed head of Household and claimed Aunt Bee as a
dependent?????? Of course, I ain't no Accountant!!!!

Allan,
Will there be any sample video clips on the website to look at before
purchasing?

My favorite catchphrase is an instruction from Andy
that I often say to my children:
"Try and act like somebody."
Y'all have a great day!

I doubt it....the video will only be of the dedication itself so the pictures
on the front of the Mayberry.com site right now should give you a feel for what
will be on the video. It was a good speach so a sample of the AUDIO might make
it on the site but not video (video is too big file size wise).

Hey thanks for all the responses on the "catchphrase" question.
Nip it in the bud
You're a bird in this world
He's a nut
You beat everything, You know that
It's me its Me It's Ernest T.
Heartaches, nothin but heartaches
That's a great list!
Anybody think of any more triples? Or Reverses?
Here's another one of Hall's 29 most important Comic Formulae. "The
Conclusion Leap" Fairly Self-explanatory, this is the plot device that often
serves as the backbone for entire episode. A couple classic TAGS cases of
this would be when Barney thinks Andy and Helen are getting married (Based
on seeing them in the Jewelry store...and based on the message from Goober
about bringing money for a license in "Andy and Helen have their day").
Barney also made a conclusion leap in "Quiet Sam" that Sam Becker was up to
no good.
One more technique is "Deadpan". In the triple example I gave earlier, at
the end of the Gold Truck episode, I mentioned that Andy is deadpan when he
says "shazam". Another classic Deadpan...and this is also at the end of a
triple (I believe), is when Barney talks about taking Ernest T out back for
a whoppin' and Helen deadpans "He'd Kill ya!"
-------------
I'm trying to figure out which comic formula is used in Man's Best Friend
(Goober's talking Dog) when Goober says to Andy and Floyd that the Dog told
him not to tell anyone about his talking, and Floyd outrageously comments;
"Well you've only known that dog a few days, why would you listen to him?"
That is classic! (and by the way its in color)
------------
I had a TAGS moment yesterday as my wife was planning a trip. She is going
to pick up her Mom, and she wanted me to make sure the van was cleaned out.
I just burst out laughing and said, You're just like Goober. You refuse to
put your mama in a dirty car! (Man in a Hurry)

Meijer Food Stores is offering the dinnerware and accessories. The price isn't
too shabby either.

On early Sunday morning, October 20, at about 4:55 a.m., I caught the closing
credits of 'The Guns of Will Sonnett' on WMAR Channel 2 Baltimore, Maryland.
There were three prominent production connections to TAGS. "Guns" was a Danny
Thomas and Aaron Spelling production. The theme was composed by Earle Hagen.
Ronald Jacobs was the producer. Earle Hagen's music sounded like it could fit
into an episode of TAGS, or you could say the work that he did on TAGS just
overlapped into 'The Guns of Will Sonnett.' This particular episode was
produced in 1967 with very Mayberry-like music indeed.

Hi gang!
Sounds like everybody had a great time at the parkway dedication last
week...too bad Mt. Airy's such a "fur piece" down the road from
Nebraska...anyway, I saw a nice news story on it on the internet from WRAL
TV in Raleigh (right after a story about a big trial going on with Lee Drake
as the chief prosecutor). Here's the link...
www.wral.com/news/1722602/detail.html
Hope you enjoy watching the report.
Also wanted to let you know about a couple of TAGS moments we've had lately.
On our way to Chicago a few weeks ago, we again saw our favorite road sign
just east of Des Moines on I-80. The sign reads "Exit 264 Newton Monroe".
Seems there are two towns off that exit, one named Newton and one named
Monroe. We finally stopped and took a picture of it for the scrap book this
summer...must be a TAGS fan in the Iowa Roads Department...otherwise, they
could have put up a sign that said "Monroe Newton"!
Then last week in church, at the end of the service, we launched in to the
closing song which was "There is a Fountain", better known to TAGS fans as
"Sinners lose all there guilty stains". My wife and I smiled as we sang and
thought of Andy & Barney singing the same.
Here's a good trivia question for which I don't have a complete answer...can
you name all the hymns sung at different times on TAGS...I know of at least
one occasion (other than Andy & Barney singing "Sinners lose all your guilty
stains" where a hymn was sung in a location other than the All Souls Church.

Hey everyone!
That highway dedication sounds like a blast!
I have a question for everyone, what was Mt. Pilot suppose to be like? I had
always thought of it as a sister city to Mayberry, so I always imagined it
being about the same size. However, today I was watching the Miracle Salve
episode while I ate lunch (Tuna Fish Sandwiches with little sweet gherkins
cut up in them) and I noticed that in the office of the Miracle Salve
company you can see out the window, and it appears that there may be sky
scrapers in the sky line.
Perhaps there is an episode that speaks to the actual size of Mt. Pilot that
I am just forgetting about. Any help would be appreciated.
