Was watching the episode last night when Andy & Helen first got together at
Thelma-Lou's house ("Thelma, Andy-Lou's here"). Helen's demeanor was actually
sweet and kind in that one, a rarity, indeed. To me, the scene before dinner
had to be one of Don Knott's funniest ever. I'd rate it up there with his
performance in "Escaped Convicts", and the one where he swears in Goober, Jud,
and Otis as deputies ("pipe down 3, I think I've heard just about enough about
that tomato"). What a brilliant, physical comedian. His facial expressions
and tone of voice are priceless. Those scenes are timeless. Any other top
favorite funny Barney scenes?

Hi Gang!
I have many Mayberry moments in my life. It's just that most of the time I'm
alone in my enjoyment as most people have no idea what I'm talking about.
However, here is one I felt was worth sharing.
Last Monday, August 16, me and some buddies from church went out into the Gulf
of Mexico to do some fishing. (Had little luck, although I did snag a 39½ lb
Cobia). During the course of the day one of the gentlemen made a statement
something to the effect, "I'm not catching anything, I think Kevin put a hex on
me" (as I was the closest one to him on the boat). Of course, you know what my
reply was: "Winkum, pinkum, Nodamus Rex, protect us all from the man with the
hex."
Brought a smile to my face. He did get it, after I reminded him where that
quote came from.
Kevin "John Masters" Turner
Barney: Andy, will you hand me an oar?
Andy: Why? We're not going anywhere.
Barney: Well, we'd better, we're sinkin'

A few years back someone here in St. Petersburg wore a baseball cap with the
letters LAPD on it. As he walked into a 7-11 there just happened to be a St.
Petersburg cop there. He asked the gentlemen if he was a LAPD cop. The man
said no and was immediately arrested. About the same time a girl who used to
work for the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office wore her PCSO shirt into a
7-11 and was immediately arrested. (She no longer worked for the PCSO and
therefore was not "allowed' to wear her shirt - I wonder why they didn't ask
for the shirt back when she quit) Both cases were eventually dropped but
not before plenty of tax-payer money was spent prosecuting/defending these
folks. Not to mention the attention they got through the media and national
TV. Citzen's Arrests are EVERYWHERE!!!! Beware...............

Hello Fellow Mayberrians!
I just wanted to say thanks to all of the suggestions for my pastor's dinner.
It has been pushed to Nov 13th because we decided that since he was such a
huge fan we were going to make a moulage out of it! We are going to fix up
the fellowship hall to look like the Blue Bird Diner. Our girls are going to
be waitresses complete with costumes. And I have convinced some of the
members to help me by dressing up as Andy, Barney, Ernest T. and all the
gang. I did find a cap online at magicmakers.com. They sell all kinds of
costumes and caps. I don't think it is quite real but it will do. I found a
candlestick phone on ebay for a pretty reasonable price. Our menu is going
to consist of the following:
Appetizers
Kerosene Cucumbers
Biscuits and Sourwood honey & marmalade
Main Meal
Aunt Bee's fried chicken
White beans
Green beans with pearly onions
Mashed potatoes & gravy
Biscuits
Dessert
Aunt Bee's famous apple pie
Barney's Mr Cookie Bar
Beverages
Coffee, Tea or Punch thank you
I cant believe how big this thing has gotten. I think we may even add a skit
to it. Everyone in our congregation is excited about it. And as a gift to
our Pastor & his wife we are going to give them matching "Barney Throws" to
cover up with when they are reclining in their easy chairs watching TAGS!
Thanks again for all of your help!!

I didn't remember Aunt Bee mentioning "Six Who Pass While The Lentils Boiled".
Was that really a play? I remember her mentioning that she was in a play as a
child, I think it was "The Little Princess". SWPWTLB sounds sophisticated.

That happened to Barney too, so don't worry about the weight problem.
You remember - 138, 138 and 1/2 - he was up and down.

It was a real play, I'm still amazed. I thought that was the writer's
idea of a great joke line.

To every one in the area, be sure not to miss David Browning at the
Greenville (SC) Braves game Friday, September 3. We will have a large group
there and
hope to meet many other WBMUTBB/David Browning fans. If you have never seen
David, you are in for a treat that is hard to describe, you just sit back and
enjoy. Hope to see lots of the TAGS family there.
ITS BIG!!! (Could there be any other way to close this post?)
