Something I just noticed is that after the first two episodes on DVD 1, the
song that is whistled over the closing credits is faster than normal, and it
has a different drum beat under it. Then beginning with Episode 3, the
whistling seems to be slowed down to the song we are most familiar with.
Anybody else noticed that?

I noticed that too. On quite a few of the episodes in the DVD set, the
closing theme has been sped up considerably, almost to the point of sounding
"cartoon-ish." The opening theme (during the black and white years) is
supposed to be in the key of G, and the closing theme in E-flat. For some
reason, on the episodes in question, it sounds to me like someone took a
recording of the song in E-flat, and sped it up by about 25%, putting it in
G. I can't figure out why anybody would do this, unless maybe they had to
speed up the credits slightly so they could get eight episodes to fit on one
disc. However, the text on the screen appears to be at the proper "slide
show" speed, so maybe I'm wrong.
I'm grateful that the creators of the DVD set included the correct closing
credits for each episode. Some TV stations squeeze the credits into a tiny
box that nobody can read and then zip through them at warp speed, or omit
them entirely. Several of the old TAGS VHS tapes had credits that were from
the wrong episodes, and some DVD sets (Jonny Quest, for example) have the
same wrong credits for every episode -- very annoying, to me anyway.

Hey, gang, Gomer says "hey."
I've been playing a bluesy style of fishing hole on my harmonica and I think
there is a possibility of a drawn-out jam song. I'm going to get my
all-acoustic blues band, The Deadliners, playing it, but we could use the
chords, because they don't have attention spans long enough to figure the
chords out themselves. Anybody got the chords to Fishing Hole? Words also. I
remember two or three verses, but there is some I can't remember.

Last weekend I watched "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" from 1960.
The town barber was Sterling Holloway (Bert Miller), with a good part,
also had Parley Baer (Mayor Stoner) Burt Mustin (Judd, & others) and
Harry Dean Stanton (Storekeeper in Howards New Life). with bit parts.
It was a very enjoyable movie, Tony Randall was one of the main
charachters.
Also, yesterday on "Happy Days" Richie (Opie) was talking to Fonzie,
leaned against a pinball machine. The name of the machine was "Nip It"!
It had a crocodile on it. Anyone remember that one? I thoght I would
share that.
