Don't even get me started on that one. Aunt Bee and Andy were not
married (obviously) and didn't file a joint tax return. He was in no way
subject to any taxes of hers. In fact, the tax man couldn't even TALK to
Andy about his Aunt's tax situation. She may have been a dependent of
his because of her limited income , but she alone would still have been
responsible for her own taxes, if any, on the prixe winnings.
And after all that fuss, to pay her taxes she sold all of the prizes
except the garbage disposal that she always wanted. Then a few episodes
later, the first time we meet Howard (as an insurance agent) she
decided she wanted to buy a garbage disposal (did she forget she just
got one) out of the insurance proceeds of the missing brooch Then
finally the brooch gets et' up by said same replacement garbage
disposal.
Sorry for making a ruckus. I'll just check myself into cell number two.

I can't remember reading anyone mentioning the milk money both Andy & aunt Bee
gave Opie in the Bully. It seems like it was a nickle each of them gave him.
Just had to put my two cents in.

What about the time Andy asks Clara what she and Aunt Bee was doing?
Her reply was something like, "Oh, just talking. You know, a little sweet
tea and spicy gossip"...
My think'in bucket help me to remember that.

actually we did see the $52.50 for Lester Scobey's back rent when Andy and
Barney raised it and Andy tried to give it to Weaver, but Weaver wouldn't
take it.
However we did not see the $1200 for the organ.

One of my favorite quotes from Aunt Bee is from the Bargain Day episode when
she buys all that meat and then her freezer goes out. When Andy asks Aunt
Bee why she's sitting on the back porch with the broken-down freezer she
states she "thought she'd just sit with it." That one cracks me up because
it sounds like something someone in my family might say and do given a
similar situation.

Well, I've still got four fourth-row center tickets for Colonel Tim's Talent
Time at this year's Mayberry Days celebration in Mt. Airy, and two evening
Dillard concert tickets. I've called the Surry Arts Council in Mt. Airy, but
they will no longer handle tickets for folks who have tickets but cannot
attend. FYI, however, I've initiated a conversation with them about doing what
they should have done earlier. It makes sense for them not to sell someone
else's tickets if they still have theirs available. Mayberry Days, after all,
is a money-making venture for them. HOWEVER, since Colonel Tim's is now sold
out, does it really make sense for them to tell last-minute planners, "I'm
sorry, there are no tickets available for Colonel Tim's" when in fact I (and
perhaps others) have four fourth-row center seats available? Does it make
sense to keep potential visitors away from Mayberry Days simply because they
believe they can't get good seats and that without them, the trip isn't worth
it?
SO, I talked with the good folks at Surry and suggested that they simply
add a place to their website each year where folks like us can list our name,
tickets, and contact information. Surry Arts can, of course, withhold that
option until the event is sold out. With this plan in place, however, people
with tickets to sell would not be left with wasted seats, Surry would not have
to handle a secondary ticket market (which they really don't want to do), and
people who DO decide to attend at the last minute can perhaps avoid being
disappointed. They could even require that any seats they list must be
available at the printed price only. That way, everything is fair all the way
around. This seems to make good old-fashioned Mayberry sense, and I'm hopeful
they will implement such a plan.
In the mean time, I've decided that if anyone in the WBMUTBBB crew wants my
four Colonel Tim's tickets or the two Dillard conert tickets I have left, I'll
let them go for 15.00 apiece--that's almost half price. That's enough to make
ole Ben Weaver cringe!!! I'll be away from email on Sunday and Monday, but
I'll get back with anyone who's interested by Tuesday evening! Best, Mark from

Watching a movie highlight reel of Red Skelton, and I saw a classic

Pike. I can't believe he was so hard on Otis for his drinking we he

A sweet Mayberry memory came to me last night. It's in the
early episodes when Andy is talking on the phone long distance. He clears his
throat and begins talking louder,
just in case a stronger voice is needed to carry the extra distance over the
lines. Such a funny moment. And so true
to the times.
Maybe it would have sounded louder with bigger lines?
