Peppermint Patty was hip. She called him Chuck!
Hey, I just had a thought. I bet Ernest T. would be interested to see all
those rocks Charlie Brown got at Halloween.

Jeff, I think that it is a "southern thing" to call folks by their first and
middle name. When I was a kid and my Mama (who was born and raised in
Mississippi) said "Anita Carol" I knew I was in trouble. : o( Maybe that's
where the "Ernest T." came into being because God love him he had a way of
getting himself into trouble.
Dixon, I love Orville Monroe too, I got tickled when he fussed about Jim
Lindsay playing music in front of his funeral parlor/tv repair shop. He was so
dignified.... By the way wasn't the lady whose tv was coming in for repairs
named something like Essie or Effie Bartlett???? Can you or anyone else
remember if Orville was only in this episode, or was he in some of the episodes
with the "town council" meetings or founders day celebrations???

i definately agree w/Ray who posted the Paramount address.
"we won't buy until they comply" to the tune of Barney and the protestin'
ladies "we will not sing, we will not sing!"
"we could have created a set like this in Hollywood! I want you the way you
were!"
and the folks who already purchased the edited DVD set of Season 3 can exchange
it for the new set -
it is too good of a show to settle for less.
thanks for listening,

I was fortunately enough to sit in on a press conference at Mayberry Days
where Betty Lynn addressed this very issue (after I asked the question). LOL :)
She said several years into taping, there was an episode where Helen was
introducing her to someone and the issue of her last name (or lack thereof)
came
up. She decided she should remain "mysterious" and a last name was never
attached to her. In yet another episode, her "job" came up. She laughed and
said
again, let it be a mystery! :) The job title and employer stayed silent.
And we thought the real identity of Mr. Schwamp was the only mystery on TAGS!

First, the question about the number on the lady convicts'
uniforms--it was 100, I think.
Now, I was over at the dime store buying some salve (the bottle Opie sold me
didn't work a lick) and me and Laura Lee Hobbs got to talking about Mr.
Schwump. Now, Laura Lee
says she heard from Olive over at the diner that Mr. Schwump and Mr. Monroe are
distantly related--Mr. Monroe may have married Mr. Schwump's cousin or
something like that. She wasn't too sure on the details. But Olive also
remembered Mr. Schwump leaving town to attend some special
school for a couple of years and wonders if that could have
been mortician's school.
The Schwump family has always been good people, but people
who tend to their own business, if you know what I mean. Neither Olive nor
Laura Lee Hobbs can get a word out of them when they come into their stores.
Frustrating.
Anyway, I got my salve (it cost $1.19 and cured me and my dogs) and passed
along this information as any good citizen would do.

>>>I just finished watching a movie from '63 called "Dementia 13" and I
heard the song that Rafe sings to Barney before the Singing Try-outs,
something with Young Charms In It (as an Instrumental). And I was wondering,
what the name of the song was and when did It come out ? Jeff Doege
Near as I can tell, "Believe Me, if All These Endearing Young Charms" is an
old Irish bagpipe tune, from about 1820 or so. Maybe Ernest T.'s ancestors
brought it over from the Old Country.
This tune was used in at least three Warner Brothers cartoons. I expect
everyone remembers the gag, which consisted of the antagonist (usually Daffy
Duck or Yosemite Sam) rigging a piano or xylophone to explode when Bugs
Bunny plays the highest note of the melody.

Peppermint Patty called him Chuck. :) Maybe his name was Charlie (first
name) Brown (middle name) and __________ (last name). Y'know, like Mary
Ellen or Jim Bob on the Waltons. Hmmm, there's no TAGS topic in my post.
OK, was there anyone in Mayberry called by their first and middle names?

I had just gotten home from work, sat down, kicked my shoes off, grabbed the
TV remote and put it on TV Land to catch the end of "Leave it to Beaver". I
looked up when I heard a fimiliar voice and it was Floyd, as a barber, with
Wally in the chair and trying to talk Ward into letting him give Wally a shave.
I checked the listing to see what year the show was and the episode was in
1958. Now I know to alot of you this is old news, but to me, well I don't
remember ever seeing this, so it was a hoot and made my day.

>>But we did eat dinner at noon and supper at night, Opie would have
>>corrected us on that.
I grew up in the deep south - Alabama. We also ate dinner at midday and
supper at night. HOWEVER, if we went out to eat at midday we "went to
lunch" and if we ate out at night we "went to dinner".
I never thought it was odd until I went to college.
We also referred to and addressed most grown-ups as "Mr." or "Miss" and
their first name. Thus, Bob Johnson was "Mr. Bob" (if we knew him well) or
"Mr. Bob Johnson" if he was just an acquaintance. I was nearly grown
In those days it was also the height of southern manners to ask after
someone's mother and the rest of their family, as in "Hello there, Mr. Bob,
how's your momma and them?"

Guess he moved his barber shop to Mayberry after closing up in Mayfield!

For those that were asking.
I have only watched the first two dvd's but
Barney Mends a Broken heart altho missing the epilog does have the sponsor spot.
Andy and Opie, Bachelors is missing the sponsor spot.
And as for the Convicts at large episode it seems to be complete to me
(altho I have yet to time it) and does have the sponsor spot as well.
The two best sponsor spots I have seen so far have been for the
Lawman Barney episode and Floyd the Gay Deceiver episode.
Both commercials really continue with the plot line of the episode
in a really good and entertaining way.

Re: the tapes beign edited, I have a couple of thoughts to offer from the
show!
"It's plagiarism!" (Clara)
"Oh, if you poured your heart and soul into it you'd know how we feel!" (Bee)
"Can you just do it their way?" (Andy - variation)
Hmmm....Perhaps if we sent Aunt Bee and Clara to talk to them, then they
would change their mind like Keevy Hazelton after he edited Aunt Bee and
Clara's
song.......
Of course, I could urge them to sue for $5,000........

Another vote for this one! You really have to be a trained noticer to nail
this one that well.
How about this one? What did Howard Sprague end up doing with his life? ( We
know that he didn't go back to the Caribbean!)
