Hey, Everybody! I was over at the Dime Store buying up another pair of binoculars and me and Laura Lee Hobbs discussed why people did not use the show's proper titles, and why people don't use a little effort and look up some of their questions for themselves? We are not experts by any means, but we figured that if the only things used were the question and the show's title, it would probably confuse the new people even if they had aids because some titles are rather similar in the plot to other shows. For example, just think how many episodes have dealt with Barney and his singing/choir or Aunt Bee and romance? Now, us oldies but goldies, would know a show from its title without any aid; heck, me and Laura Lee Hobbs can see a five-second frame--without sound--and know what show is airing. But we are pros. We are oldies but goldies. And, yeah, a true Mayberry fan should buy all the books, etc. and most of the questions would already be answered. But that would cut down on our Digest, and I would never want that. It's a theory of me and Laura Lee Hobbs that a lot of the people who write in to the Digest write less for the exact answer and more for the company that their question or observation may provide them. Like I said, we ain't the smartest gals in the world. But the next time someone writes in wanting to know what happened to Opie's mom or letting the world know what he/she called a soft drink, be tolerant and most of all, be kind. The Internet is Big, but the world can be lonesome, and the words you write have more power than you think. Lydia, "She's nice. She's real nice."
