Please don't think that I am a psychotic trying to live in a fantasy world.
I just want to visit there. Often. That being said, does anyone know if
Seasons Two and Three are still available? I have 2, 3 and 4 on my wish list
and my family is on high alert but I understand that Season 4 won't be
released until mid-November. I haven't spotted them in any of the retail
outlets I
have been to lately so my skinny little neck veins are starting to pop.
Thanks for being so neighborly.

Hi Carol,
I'm right there with ya wanting to escape to Mayberry for a while...and it's
not that far from me! (well, Mt. Airy, that is).
I long for the pork chop samwich at Snappy Lunch, the lovely town, and the
beautiful breezes they get there right off the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Ahhhh, to be in Mayberry....
Anyway, if you're still looking for the TAGS DVDs, I've seen seasons 2, 3,
and preordering for season 4 on Weaver's Department Store site, and yes, I've
seen 2 and 3 in Target, Costco and Wal*Mart here in Charlotte.
(My wish list is for season 4, think my dear sweet aunt is presenting it to
me for Christmas!)
I'm also hoping for the sleep pants under my Christmas tree this year! hehe.
Have a Mayberry kind of day, and happy shopping...is that like happy
motoring?, and take care of those neck veins..try not to let the versitis set
in...wonder what causes that?
your neighborly friend in NC,
jaywalkin' joan

Yes, Ben, I have noticed that. The same thing takes place in "Barney's
First Car". The whole time that Andy and Barney are out on the porch doing
business with Hubcaps Lesch, Andy's hair is parted one way; but at the very
end of that scene, right after Mrs. Lesch has walked away to meditate at the
church down the street, Andy & Barney are shown watching her walk away, and
Andy's hair is parted exactly opposite.
Also, in the scene where Barney is quoting the Preamble to the Constitution
(at least I think that's what he was quoting...somebody please correct me,
if I'm wrong about this), Barney's hair is all muffed up in some scenes, and
slicked back in others, all throughout the same "recitation". Maybe they
all need to go see Floyd and tell him to give 'em a haircut that doesn't
look like a haircut!

Hey Ben:
Please let us know what episode that is. I have to see that one. One just
doesn't part thier hair on the other side, especially with AG with that full
head of hair he has! The only way that could have happened is if the
original film were flipped (which you cannot do with video tape. (or, could
it be you were visiting the Mendlebright sisters the night you saw that one
:)

"Please don't think that I am a psychotic trying to live in a fantasy world."
As a person who has a TAGS compelshion myself I'd never call anyone a
psychotic, nor even a menerack who wanted to live in Mayberry. I'd like to do
all the things you mentioned, plus shop at the Mayberry stores, catch a Glenn
Ford movie at the Mayberry theater, have my hair done at the Beauty Parlor and
drop by Mrs Wiley's for a dance with Mr. Schuamp - I'd even accept some coffee,
tea or punch thank you.
I say everybody on the truck, let's head to Mayberry.

Dear Tex,
In re to your inquiry about me and Laura Lee Hobbs' finding
the All Souls Church in southern Al
If you are asking if I was hanging my head out the car window on our tour of LA
(Lower Alabama), well of course I was.
Laura Lee Hobbs does all the driving, while me and Miss Pearl enjoy the sights.
Of course, LLH has to stop from time to time to pick up my hair ribbon and to
clean up after the aged but lovely Miss Pearl (car riding does seem
to not agree with her), but its a small price to pay for the trips of a
lifetime.
Man, you ain't lived until you've rode around in a reconverted yellow Pinto
that is drove by Laura Lee Hobbs, holding on to a 23 year old cat. That's
adventure riding!
Lydia, ain't much for bowling, ain't much for chit-chat, but I can hold my own
when it comes to cross-country riding
Why are some of my posts going through twice? Maybe I ought
to call the man?

Subject: Goober and other unique character names
To: <[email protected]>
Message-ID:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
When I was a youngster growing up on the plains of Nebraska, we had a
farm neighbor named Goober down the road a piece. I don't know if that
was given name or a nickname, but that was all he was ever called to the
best of my recollection. He moved away when I was still a kid, and I
don't know what happened to him.
As for "famous Gomers", the Gomer of the Bible was already mentioned
(actually a female prostitute whom God told Hosea to marry). And,
although I'm a Nebraska Cornhusker fan, I know that Oklahoma's head
football coach for a couple of mediocre seasons in the mid 1960's was
named Gomer Jones.
All in all, TAGS used three pretty rare names for some of its main
characters (Opie, Gomer and Goober).
I love some of the other unusual occasional characters (seen or
mentioned) in TAGS--Hudge, Jubal, Halycon, Mavis, Effie, Phoebe, Gussie,
Briscoe, Other, Burley, Corlis, Pansey, Cyrus, Farley, Fletch, Keevy,
Purvis, Robling, Verlaine, Rube, and of course, who can forget Rafe.
Anybody else have a favorite unique character name from TAGS?
Keith in Nebraska
Don't forget Dr. Pendyke and Opie Taylor, Sr.

Well I had to take a look in my archives and see how long I've been
hanging out here. Looks like it was June of 1997 when the list was a
majordomo list on bolis.com
Thanks Allan for all of your efforts. Thanks to everybody else for the
excellent posts, observations and questions.

Martha and I have been members of WBMUTBB since January 1997, and let me
tell you, it was the best thing we've ever done. We joined a month before
Sara's chat room was started by Allan, and we went in there every night for
the
longest time, and met the best people in the world there, who are to this day,
the best of friends. We all talked every night from February until Mayberry
Days '97, where we met all the folks we'd been talking to on line for the
first time face to face, and it was like going to a family reunion. It felt
like we'd known these people our entire lives. I can't explain how special
these folks are to Martha and I, and will always be very special friends the
rest of our lives, I'm sure. We can hardly wait for Mayberry Days to come
each year so we can see them all again. You have all been very special, and
we
love you all.

I love the posts about being a 'trained noticer'. I try to do that
sometimes as well, but my wife had a GOOD ONE the other night. Anyone
remember the episode of Hawaii 5-0, when Andy Griffith played a 'small
time' crook, who got mixed up with the Mob?? Andy (his last name was
Lovejoy on the 5-0 episode), and his wife and daughter would flim-flam
ordinary citizens, usually for relatively small sums of money.
SO we're watching the Andy Griffith episode recently when Opie attends
the Camp with kids from some of the more wealthy families in the area.
Opie becomes friends with Billy Hollander, and has lunch at his house.
And wouldn't you know it, Billy's Mom is the SAME WOMAN who played Mrs.
Lovejoy, (Andy's wife), in the episode of Hawaii 5-0!

No, but I know of one business. There used to be a drive-in theatre in
Headland, Alabama, near Dothan, called "the Goober." It predated TAGS so it
was
likely named after the area's heavy peanut industry. The newly-built
Continental Drive-In named all four of its screens after defunct Dothan-area
drive-ins
and one is called, of course, the Goober.

Hello to everybody. Check out the forwarded message listed below from my
friend Chuck. I have only had time to sample a few of the archives
here, but SIX HOURS of interview total with Andy Griffith and Don Knotts
is a beautiful thing.
Check it out - I appreciate it.

============================
Jeff
Here are wonderful interviews from 1998 with Andy Griffith and Don
Knotts from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Foundation (two
pages of results, scroll down to see them all)
Set aside a day, the interview is 2.5 hours with Andy Griffith, 3.5
hours with Don Knots.
http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=Andy+Griffith
This is brand new, so I'm guessing the folks on your "Mayberry" chats
don't know about it yet.
If you post about it, please mention you heard about it from your friend
"Chuck, proprietor of http://www.BidRobot.com for eBay"
Thanks!
Chuck
