Blush & Keevy (Keezy?) Hazleton who had that big hit about Texarcana &
Mthen sang Aunt Bee & Clara's Mayberry song. Then there was Bobby Fleet

Andy told Barn that he hadn't called him 'Chief' since..........
Andy: "Wait a minute! What's playing at theatre..... Glenn Ford and
G-Men"
My question is did the movie theatre where G-Men was playing have a
name?

Appendectomy of Opie
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I had the pleasure to meet William Christopher this past Saturday at the
Chiller Theatre Expo at the Sheraton Meadowlands in East Rutherford, New
Jersey.
He portrayed Mr. Heathcote, the I.R.S. agent, in the TAGS episode 'Aunt Bee on
T.V.' ("I love my job." )He later appeared as Dr. Peterson in 'A New Doctor in
Town.' He also has the distinction of being witness to the tonsilectomy and
appendectomy of Ronny Howard. Ronny's character had his appendix removed in
M*A*S*H.
William was also a semi-regular on 'Gomer Pyle USMC' as Private Lester
Hummel. Lastly, he had a small part in 'The Shakiest Gun in the West.'

One of the first things I do when I get up every morning is to read the digest.
You folks just crack me up! I was reading the most recent digest and all the
references to Elvis and the time Andy talked about "that fellow on tv that was
shakin'..... it sounded like somebody was beating his dog!" That one just
cracks me up. There were so many truly hilarious lines on TAGS and you all
bring them to my mind with your posts to the digest. I just sit here and laugh
til my family starts looking at me funny but I don't care because you all make
my day and I thank you.

I found an approximately 93-piece Blue Willow China set at a collectibles
store. I think they're asking $295 for the set.
Anyone interested can email me for the name, address and phone number.
A Mayberry moment to brighten my day.

HI Neighbors...
I am not blessed with Tv land so I am drooling over the fact that you
have it.
I was wondering... What are the lines in the theme song
Take down your fishing pole and meet me at the fishing hole we may not get a
bite all day....
Could somone please tell me what issue we had the directions for the wav
sounds?
"Water and air are free we do make a charge for the gas though.."
May God bless and be with you all....

To my knowledge, Elvis wasn't mentioned by name, but Andy did remind Jim
Lindsey about that feller that they see on tv now and again a-shakin &
a-singin. Jim was a lot better picker.
Goober,however, did mention the 'Beagles' once when Opie joined the 'Sound
Connection'.

Subject: Elvis--what could have been...
Date: Mon, 26 Apr 2004 16:46:18 -0400
This is a take-off of the Elvis question. A couple years ago there was a
guy in our club here (may still be) who was a Blues singer.. So I made-up a
Scene and a Song that could have happened on our favorite show---if one of
the writers had been a blues fan. Since this thing doesn't produce sound.
You have to imagine the guitar sounds which I crudely made with words
.....the Scene
Barney is in the quiet courthouse at night. He's manning the jail
because they're expecting a prisoner from the state police. Andy had a
commitment at school because Opie was in a school play.
Barney's thoughts....
(I gotta let the guy go to the school program. He's a family man, ya
know. His place is there with the boy. I had plans to go to Thelma
Lou's tonight, but duty calls. Here I am, lawman Fife, just makin'
another sacrifice for the people. It's my job...I'm the brave civil
servant, keepin the peace, controllin'' the riff-raff, maintainin' the
American way)
As Barney guides a broom slowly around the room the only sound is from
the staticy radio in the back room playing some music. Barely audible but
persistent is the rhythm of a "Blues" song. Barney looks around to see
that the door is closed, he straightens up, holds the broom now as if it's
a microphone stand, makes a masculine mischievous sneer on his face,
and picks up the beat of the music.
(ya gotta git the Blues sound in your head now for this to work)
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum (Barney starts to sing)
I got da Blues
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
The Lone-ly Dep-u-ty Blues
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Yah, I got da blues
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Cause I'd ruther be at Thelma Lou's ....
(chorus)
I'm a woman-lovin' de-pu-ty, a one woman-man
I ain't no Casanova, But I do the best I can
Yes I'm a woman-lovin' de-pu-ty, a one wo-man-guy
And when I am without her, I'm so loney...... I could cry
(Barney does a little dance step with the broom, his head bobs as the
guitar plays, he pulls that top strand of hair down between his eyes,
dips the microphone (broom) and starts again this time deeper voice)
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I'm stuck here at the jail
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I don't hold nooo grudge
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
But I should be watchin TV with my lady...
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Holdin hands and Eatin' cashew fudge,
cause, I'm a woman-lovin' de-put-y, a one woman-man
I ain't no Frank Sinatra, But I do the best I can
Yes I'm a woman-lovin' de-put-y, a one wo-man-guy
And when I am without her, I'm so loney..... I could cry
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Whatever it takes to please her...
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Yah, She knows that I'll do-it
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I even put up my dukes once...
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
To take on Big Ole Jeff Pru-itt,
cause, I'm a woman-lovin' dep-u-ty, a one woman-man
I ain't no Frank Sinatra, But I do the best I can
Yes I'm a woman-lovin' dep-u-ty, a one wo-man-guy
And when I am without her, I'm so loney...... I could cry
(Barney's hair is all messed up now, he is scooting across the room
in big strides as he spins around the broom, flails his head back
and continues)
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Now Andy's got Miss Crump
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
When she ain't-a teachin'
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Miss Rosemary was my first girl in town
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
When I'd walk her every Sun--day to Preachin'
Even then, I was a woman-lovin' dep-u-ty, a one woman-man
I ain't no dark Rock Hudson, But I do the best I can
Yes I'm a woman-lovin' dep-u-ty, a one wo-man-guy
And when I am without her, I'm so loney...... I could cry
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Now if I was in the dark with Thelma Lou
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Oh, Nothing could be finer
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Her smootches can't be beat
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Unless, its Jua-nit-a at the Diner
but I gotta be a woman-lovin' dep-u-ty, a one woman-man
I ain't no Franky Avalon, But do the best I can
Yes I'm a woman-lovin' dep-u-ty, a one wo-man-guy
And when I am without her, I'm so loney...... I could cry
(are ya swayin yet ladies, guys are you pattin your feet to the beat?)
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I'm so tired of waitin'
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Here for the State Po-lice
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I could be wearin my salt-pepper
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
givin my little lady a cozy squeeze
(unbeknownst to Barney, Otis has been sleepin in his cell the whole time
He has now awaken, pulled the key off the hook and let himself out
he stands behind Barney mimicking his moves and begins to sing the
chorus with him. Barney is startled by Otis breath and his singing
as Otis intones the chorus)
He's a woman-lovin' dep-ed-y a one woman-man
He can't sing worth a lick, but he tries the best he can(laughs)
Oh I'm a bottle-lovin' happy guy, a drunk oh yes I am
The only thing I have for My lady.. is a leg of lamb
Barney frowns and takes back over the song as Otis staggers a happy
little dance
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I got da Blues
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
The Lonely De-pu-ty blues
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
Instead of dancin' here with Otis
Bouiwgh Bouiwgh pum pum
I shoulda been at Thelma Lou's
A key in the lock is heard and Andy burst into the courthouse with two
state policeman and a prisoner.
Andy: Whatcha Doin Barn?
Barney: Oh just sweepin up (he resumes sweeping with the broom)
Andy: Officer Malloy here said he knocked on the door but nobody
answered..He said all they could hear was loud music and they
could see some Fred Astaire prancing around the room. (he laughs)
They had to come down to the schoolhouse to get me to let them in.
Barney: Well I had the radio a little too loud, but I was just sweepin,
Sorry I didn't here you fellas. (he turns to the prisoner)
Welcome to the ROCK This is a maximum security prison!
You will listen to, and obey all rules (Andy interrupts)
Andy: You must been sweepin up a storm..Your hair is all mussed up
and I bleve your breakin' a sweat there Barn.
Barney looks at the prisoner...it's no lady this time...its a young man
a boyish Elvis Presley. Andy signs the papers and walks out with the
state police while Otis returns to his nap. The prisoner talks to Barney
from his cell.
Elvis: Hey Deputy, I heard some of that singin' (Barney drops his head)
Did you write that yourself?
Barney: Well, (sniffs, stands up straight) I guess I did put a few
words together to pass the time.
Elvis: Hey I'm a singer and I thought that was pretty good.
Could you help me write a song?
Barney: Well...if you insist (he runs over to the desk and grabs the
typewriter, then grabs the key to go in the cell.)
Elvis: I always wanted to write a song about a little County Jailhouse
like this...what did you call this place?
Barney: The Rock, It's uh the jailhouse, the Rock
Elvis Hey I like that, Jail House Rock.
Fade out ..Fishin Hole whistlin
So there ya go...Elvis could have been on Andy and the rest would have been
history
The Untrained Voice--singing the Lowdown Deputy Blues
I think my friend David Browning should perform this some day!

Well we now know what Malcom Merriweather (Bernard Fox) did during the war.
I saw him guest starring on McHales Navy today as a british navy screwup
called Sedrick on temporary assignment to McHale.
So I guess he put in his time for the Brits in WW2 just like Andy and Barn did
for the US.
