Hi Gang!!
A couple of things about the post regarding playing pool. Please don't
fall for this. I checked it out and they require you to enter your email
address AND password for that email address. Hopefully no one else would
fall for that, and give some website your PRIVATE password. Besides, I
think the church would be better off with new choir robes or work on the
leaning foundation, than it would be to have a pool table in the basement,
even if the loser had to buy the refreshments, hehe.
Again, please heed the advice and don't give your passwords out to anyone.
In other words, TICK A LOCK!!!

I have to agree - I think there was more sparks between Andy and Ellie, and
certainly Andy and Peggy than we saw with Helen. However, Andy was older and
maybe settled down a bit and realized that there is more than good chemistry to
insure a lasting relationship.
Or - maybe he learned his lesson about physical attraction from Susan Oliver.

Okay. Long, long ago, when dinosaurs walked the earth . . . the milkman
delivered to our house. We "took from" the "Urbana Pure" milk company, as I
remember. We had an insulated box on the back porch for delivery, but the
object was to get the milk into the house before it spoiled in the summer or
before it got so cold in the winter that it expanded and popped the top right
off the bottle. There would be a tower of frozen milk or cream maybe two and a
half inches above the bottle with its little top sitting like a cap on top.
Mother always wanted to avoid that, but, as I was a kid, I thought it was kinda
"cool."
Empty bottles with a rolled up list of what we needed the next time went back
into the box. I remember my mother hollering, "Harry!" out the back door so
she could pay the milkman. (This was also the custom with the garbage man, but
he was Herold and he just picked up...didn't deliver...and I digress.)
The bottle was topped with a cardboard circle with a tab so you could pull it
out to pour the milk. (We collected them from different dairies. They were
popular show-and-tell items.) And that was topped with a foil seal (also
collectible) that covered the edges of the bottle and was "smooched" down to
create a seal. (I know the technical term 'cause my third-grade teacher's
husband was associated with the dairy and we went on a field trip there.)
Milk came in a bottle with the cream on top or homogenized. Some milk bottle
necks had baby face shapes on top where the cream would rise.
Our milkman had a horse pull his wagon, and he put an Easter bonnet on her in
the spring. She knew just where to stop, and she waited patiently. She was
one of the last of the milk horses in town, and when she had to be retired,
Harry retired. He didn't like having to stop and start the truck.
My 20-year-old would probably think I made this all up, but it's the truth what
I'm tellin' you with my hand up.

The reason those caps would pop off in cold weather was the milk froze in the
winter. Growing up in Ohio I remember being fascinated at seeing the frozen
tops of the milk sticking up above the milk bottle. I may have even had a taste
of the frozen part. I think the milk in those days contained more of a cream
content than they do now days.
When I was in Kindergarten, one of the boys whose daddy owned a Dairy, invited
our class to tour it for a field trip. We got to see the whole procedure
including the bottles going through the capping process. In those days children
could pay for small bottles of milk, including that wonderful chocolate variety
to drink with our lunches brought from home. I seem to remember an orange or
orange juice as well.

While rewatching The Bed Jacket episode I noticed some interesting things that
I wonder about.
1. Why would Mayor Stoner wear a necktie while fishing?
2. Was the Wakefield who owned the Beauty Parlor one of the Wakefields from
the feud?
3. Why would Aunt Bee allow Andy and Opie to hang their fishing poles in the
living/dining area of the house?
4. If Aunt Bee told Clara she didn't want Andy to know that she knew about the
bed jacket, why did she tell Andy
that she knew about the bedjacket?
It is a rather slow day here in Wisconsin and I don't much else to think about.

Good Comment about George Spence. I guess he was so popular because so
many guys were jealous. He did plant one on Gloria didn't he? Heck
Fire I would have applauded for Pierre and said "You Da man" if I saw
him (and he never appeared) because he was engaged to Ellen Brown.
(Nature's been real good to her)
Lydia, maybe you and Laura Lee Hobbs have talked about these two
Mayberry vixens. (Ellen and Gloria) What do you think about the way
Ellen dressed? If ya got it flaunt it? Or Oh honey can't you find a
dress that you can move a little in?
Now lets see, what am I fixin' for supper uh legs, Fried chicken..Legs,
thighs, oops better stop there. You da man Pierre! You too George

Just saw an ad for a speaker that attaches to your dog's collar. There is a
remote control that works the speaker. There are several recorded messages.
The package says "Hound Bytes-make your dog talk!" Hmmm, hasn't this been
done already?
I agree about Helen. She always was uptight and very jealous. Poor Andy
couldn't do anything right. Now Peggy, she was up for anything.

George Spence met Andy Griffith while working on the play "The Lost
Colony" at Roanoke Island, NC in the early 1950s, so his relationship
to Andy was there for a long time before he made that guest appearance.

I agree about the lack of chemistry between Helen and Andy...I personally
liked Ellie and/or Peggy the "best" as girls for Andy.
Too bad Barney had no luck rounding up some "good ones" when all those
eligible Mayberry girls came over to Andy's house that night, thinking Thelma
Lou
wanted to see them....even if they did eventually form a softball team!
I read once that Andy Griffith was more at ease with Anita Corsaut than any
of the other "girls".
And, it was nice to see her even in some of the Matlock shows, as well as
Betty Lynn and Don Knotts.
Guess the fun girls were just too much for Andy!
But, ole Barn could handle them...even with Juanita on the side!

*** NEWS FROM TAGSRWC HQ: Mayberry and Hurricane relief ***
During at least the month of September and perhaps indefinitely, all
proceeds from sales of "Goober's Grab-Bag of Goob Stuff" will be given
to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund instead of to our usual
charity, the Surry Arts Council in Mount Airy, N.C. Weaver's
and TAGSRWC have fulfilled our commitment of financial support to the
Surry Arts Council and Mayberry Days for 2005. We'll worry about how to
meet our 2006 commitment to the Surry Arts Council later on. For now,
we want to direct our resources to Katrina victims.
While TAGSRWC and Weaver's Dept. Store will also be donating a
percentage of sales of all items toward Katrina relief, 100% of Grab-Bag
sales ($30.00 each) will go to the American Red Cross.
TAGSRWC as a whole doesn't plan to organize other formal fund-raisers
for hurricane relief through the club at this point
We encourage everybody who wants to donate resources, manpower, or
additional money to do so directly to the relief agency of their choice.
Meanwhile, we can keep the victims in our thoughts and prayers.

I found some old files where I added a new Icon or two to the old desk
top them.
can anyone point me to a still sort of like the color photo of andy
and opie fishing.
Its more like Thad Cox North Carolina Reflections. I would prefer the
original outdoors
scene. I had it long ago. Not looking for the DVD cover art. This will
be for private
use of course, if there is any question of that. I tried a net
search and site but, I
got fed up with advertisements and going over basically the same ground.
If not this
exact scene I would like a link to wallpaper size photos. thanks for
any help. I just
got frustrated with my search
