Mayberry humor saves the day - I stopped at the Post Office early this morning
to buy stamps and had to use the (slot) machine. Rather than let me pick the
second item, it gave my change back, including two $1 coins. I wanted to buy
more stamps, so I tried to put the $1 coins back in the machine and it refused
to accept them! I got tired of the $1 payoff for every $1 played, so I got some
postcard with the rest of the change and thought to myself, "Once again, Barney
was right." I should have refused to use a slot machine to transact government
business and I may just have to use one of the stamps for a letter to the
government. hahaha

Hi folks, I KNOW I missed this earlier, but could someone fill me in on TV
Land's Top Ten episodes. What were they? I missed the last go round of
this, and now I see it's coming up again on Wednesday! I'm teaching a
graduate class that evening and will like miss a lot of it. The "Bullet in
the Pocket Gang" here in Kirksville puts "Man in a Hurry" in the number one
spot. After that, there is a bit more disagreement. Hey to
everyone, Mark from Missouri

I had to laugh out loud when I read Kim's confession that she bought the DVD's
and didn't have a player. I did the same thing at Dollar Tree, but I have to
admit that I also bought 7 others. How can you go wrong for a buck unless DVD
players are obsolete before I get around to buying one!
I also own a 67 Lincoln like Mr. Foster's. It has the suicide doors. I
understand they were called that because it was suicide to open them up while
driving. Maybe just folklore, but it makes sense. My garage looks like
Wally's since I also own a '63 squad car.
They both have 8 cylinders, you know!

I am thining out my Mayberry Collection and I wanted to let everyone know
about an item that I now have on Ebay. It is a 45rpm record with a picture
sleeve of I WISH WERE A FISH sung by Arthur Godfrey. On the picture sleeve
is a photo of Arthur Godfrey, DON KNOTTS and the Limpet fish. This item was
never for sale to the public and could only be ordered by MOVIE THEATERS to
promote the then new release of THE INCREDIBLE MR LIMPET. In my 15 years of
collecting Don Knotts memorabilia, this is only the second one that I have
ever seen and it's near mint. Just thought you might like to know. Here's
a web address for this particular item:

I might be gettin' my britches hung on my own pitch fork or I may be
pickin' my peaches before their fuzzed up good. But I was wondering
whether the lady from up north somewhere, that was either going to close
her shop or let her Mother run things, actually went to Mayberry Days.
And if she did go, what did she think of the festivities.
Like I said I may be butting in where I don't belong. But, you know us
men. Show us a shoe salesman and we'll think he's a talent scout for
one of those New York City TV shows.

I was just watching an episode of COMBAT (a 1960's WW2 series) and the whole
episode was filmed at the Franklin Canyon Reservoir, the same place that the
Myers Lake scenes were filmed. There was even a scene that the Germans were
walking down the path that Andy and Opie walk down in the opening scene of
TAGS. I didn't realize that Mayberry was part of the Western Front!
