Oh yes, we had a "club cab" VW pickup when I was a kid in Kansas. Full front
and rear seats so the whole family could fit with a somewhat abreviated
pickup bed with a cavas top that could be put up making a cover for the bed
that matched in height with the cab of the truck. We had it for quite
awhile. Many a good fishing trip and camping expedition in it. Got thrown
from the back of it once while moving between fishing holes. Some good
memories and a couple not so hot of that vehicle.

In the episode where Ellie squirts Andy with perfume, then Barney calls him
some kind of name like "passion flower". Barney goes on to comment that Andy
likes to pull pranks but doesn't like them pulled on him. I like the fact that
even Andy isn't always shown as perfect. I think it keeps the characters more
believable when they have a flaw or two.

PS: Someone mentioned the Confederate flag as a historical reference, which it
is. I believe some Southerners want to distance themselves from the
Confederacy because we've been perceived stereotypically as racists and
pro-slavery.

Hello everyone!
I always love reading about the little inconsistencies on the show and then
watching the show and actually seeing them. In last nights episode "The New
Doctor" I noticed something that just struck me as hilarious. When the dr
and Ellie are sitting in the back room talking and Barney comes in the
drugstore to spy on them, Ellie calls from the back "Be there in a minute
Barney". That just struck my funny bone. How did Ellie know it was Barney
that came in? She must have had "extra sensitive perception"

More PC bullcrap not havin that flag on the General Lee.
Same ppl who don't like the flag on the Gen. Lee hate our troops, and hate
and blame America
All that flag is, is history
I think it's time we fought the PC'rs back.

The Confederate battle flag is no longer on the roof of the car in the
movie. Wouldn't want to offend anyone with history.

Friends,
It looks like it's time for a reminder about the rules we have here at
the Digest because we've been drifting from our topic here. I don't
want to see us drift from talking about Mayberry into either a Dukes of
Hazzard list nor into a "Politically Correct" discussion. So, here's a
reminder about the rules and why we're all here in the first place.
With the number of new members we've gotten lately that it's time to
restate "The Rules" for everybody anyway. You old-timers might want to
read through this just to refresh your memories and I think it's good
for all of us to try and remember these tried and true rules.---- Allan
----------------------------------
Hey Everybody,
Boy, things have really been growing here in out little corner of
Mayberry!! Because of that I think it's time to remind everyone what
WBMUTBB is all about:
We all know what Mayberry is about but do we realize why it is that we
all visit there everyday? I know that the characters are great but more
than that, they're friends. We "know" these people and it's just a joy
to visit them every chance we get to watch them as they work their way
through getting locked in a cell because the door "clangs shut" or any
of the other wonderful situations they face. Things always work out in
a wonderful way leaving a smile on our faces.
Mayberry is an escape from the day-to-day trials we all face. A short
trip to a place where every body cares about one another and where we
can forget, for a while, the fact that "real life" isn't as much like
that as we'd like.
I started WBMUTBB back in 1990, along with several other good folks, and
since then I've tried to make it as much like a "corner of Mayberry" as
possible. I wanted this place to be somewhere folks could go and forget
about the outside world and relax by reading about Andy, Barney, Opie,
Aunt Bee, and the rest of our Mayberry family.
To try and make that happen I've required everyone who wanted to join to
tell us a little about themselves so we could get to know them just a
little bit. After all, in Mayberry everyone knew everybody else and
how can we have a community without having at least some idea about our
neighbors?
I've also had a couple of rules here and I try to enforce them.
Of course Rule #1 is...you guessed it...Obey all rules.
Rule #2 is this: Talk about the things you like about Mayberry..not
things you don't like.
I know some folks forget this second rule sometimes and they don't
really understand WHY I think Rule #2 is important so let me just give
you an example. Let's say I were to say, "Boy, I really hate Barney. I
mean, look how stupid he is and poor Andy has to put up with him." If
I said that (and meant it) what are the first things that happen to you?
First you'd feel like, "Man, that guys a jerk!" Then you'd get
aggravated at this guy talking about your Favorite character (and
friend), Barney Fife. Even if Barney's not your very favorite
character, you'd likely be upset about this guy talking about your neighbor.
I've never heard anyone say anything like that about Barn but I have
about other characters and folks forget that just because they don't
like a particular character doesn't mean that character isn't someone
elses favorite. You see, if I talk about your favorite character saying
negative things about 'em it takes your fun away.
I think that's enough about Rule #2 and I hope you all understand the
rule. It's not to take away from your fun but to encourage you all to
tell us about what's fun to you and share your good feelings with others.
We have something special here. It's something you don't find often on
the internet. No "flames", no "fighting", no "foul language." We have
a place that children and adults can come and enjoy themselves.
Mayberry is a wonderful place and I'm just glad to be a part of this
little corner of it.
Your Friend and neighbor,
Allan Newsome
