A pair of the 1992(?) Andy & Barney Bobble Head Nodders just sold on ebay for
$407. Maybe it's time to diversify from stocks & bonds into more "stuff".

So many episodes of our favorite show involved food. Even Jimmy and the little
trembly dog caused problems with what they ate, not to mention Barney's chili.
If you prepared everything, just think of the feast your Pastor would have.
Aunt Bee says it's a sin to throw food, so if the congregation starts a food
fight the Pastor will have to set them straight.
By the way, if those hamburgers are burned I won't be responsible!

You could give the dear preacher some good ol' hogback and some fish muddle
like I offered Sherriff Andy and that deputy of his when he came to help us out
with our Ernest T. Bass problem! While he's eatin', the boys could play
"Never beat your Grandma with a great big stick"---exceptin' that'n always
makes
me cry. . .

Mayberry menu suggestion: Don't give your pastor chicken wings from a chicken
that has done a LOT of flying.

for pointing that out.

If you serve Lillian's meatballs, be sure to check the preacher's
mackinaw pockets before he
goes home. And check your potted plants after he leaves.

Wow! Ken and/or Linda (as the case may be), that was a great list, and you
were very perceptive to come up with all those comparisons! You did, indeed,
remind me to be very thankful that TAGS was made 40+ years ago and not today.
So much of the charm of TAGS can be attributed to that fact that it depicts an
earlier time, when people, not technology, was the focus of daily life. Though
I appreciate all the technological advances man has achieved in recent years
and make use of many of them, it seems that technology has served to isolate
people as opposed to bringing them together. For example, a lot of
face-to-face and even voice-to-voice human contact is eliminated today through
the use of fax machines, ATM's, e-mail, answering machines/voice mail, Internet
commerce, drive-through everythings, etc., etc. There are people who work from
home and can go the entire day without having contact with another human being,
except through the computer. It occurred to me that poor Sarah would be out of
a job if TAGS were made in 2004. Maybe she would have to become one of those
annoying telemarketers! Anyway, I am very glad that Andy and the gang are
still enjoying a simpler life at a slower pace -- and that we can, too, by
watching TAGS!

Re: George Lindsey's act was super. (Can't believe he will be 80 this
year, he looks great.)
George will be 69 on December 17th. (I didn't think he was that old!)

For a nice touch, you could use red and white checkered tableclothes and have
a gyspy violinist play at the table. ( If you don't mind the moodiness )

Sorry that this is a repeat of a question asked many times, but I just have
to do it!
Does anyone know where you can download a Mayberry theme ringtone that will
work on a Verizon Wireless / Kyrocera cell phone? Thanks and happy motoring!

The episode lats night where Barney got into the car & drove it back to
the courthouse, was the the only time Barney ever truly caught a
criminal? Without Andy's assistance to make him look good? We all know
Barney's ideas usually fall as flat as a bad soufflé. Thanks to anyone
who knows.
Also to the woman who wanted the stationery URL I went to:

& by deleting a few words found a list of their stationery at:

Can't find the home page but this should do for you.

Bob, your point is well taken -- the sixties were, indeed, a turbulent and
troubled era in our country's history. However, not all of us were directly
exposed to those ugly experiences. I was a child during the sixties, just a
toddler when TAGS debuted and eleven when the decade ended. Growing up in the
Midwest on a farm near a very small town and far away from big-city life, I
enjoyed a pretty sheltered and idyllic environment. In fact, it really was a
lot like living in Mayberry. Until I was much older, I never heard of people
putting razor blades in apples at Halloween or doing drugs. We didn't have any
violence or even any major misbehavior at our little elementary school (which
was so small that all six grades occupied only three rooms!). We never locked
our doors at night, and we knew and trusted all our neighbors. I'm not saying
bad things didn't happen, only that our collective image of the sixties in
retrospect does not correspond with the lifestyle of many of us who lived in
rural and small-town settings at that time. An awful lot of people were
leading quiet, happy, and productive lives and maintaining good, old-fashioned
values while a minority was grabbing the country's attention through drugs,
violence, and radical ideas.
I wish I could say that things have not changed over the years, but they have.
My parents now lock their doors every night and have even had property stolen
by area thieves trying to support their drug habit. Perhaps that's why I value
TAGS more as the years go by. Whenever I watch it, it's like returning to the
"Mayberry" period of my life. Bob, your experience may have been different
from mine, but, for me anyway, there was a "purer, simpler time" in the sixties.

Just a quick note on George Lindsey. He will be seventy next year, not 80.
But he still looks great! Cheers, Mark Hanley

Maybe some fish muddle or hoot owl pie.
and my favorite recipe from the Aunt Bee's Mayberry Cookbook
Rodney Darling's Blackened Pig
Real simple recipe:
1 Medium to Large Pig
1 Medium Size House
Sauce (Optional)

Return in 3 days with oven mitts."
