I just thought of another one. Someone mentioned her game show appearance,
but the reason she was in LA in the first place was because a glamorous actress
was portraying her in a movie!

Hi All!
I too have said that Alan Jackson should have said TAGS reruns instead
of Lucy. You bring up a great point though in that he might have been trying to
refer more to NYC where Lucy took place. I too am a huge fan of his & he
sings a lot about simpler (kind of Mayberry) times. Wish we could go back in
time
when life just seemed better...Well we can in our hearts& spirit. Last night
was fabulous on TV Land....Wish they'd show blocks of shows like that more
often...I'd sure love a TAGS week-end on TV land...they used to do that but
haven't in a while...Everyone Enjoy the day!!!

Subject: My HomeTown
Being in municipal government, I often have my finger on the pulse of Town
business. Lately, the Town has undertaken a search for an official "Town Song."
It was all I could do to hold back from suggesting: "My Hometown, it's the
greatest place I know,"....etc... However, I was unsure of the status of any
copyright that may exist in favor of Clara and Aunt Bee so I thought the better
of it.....

I would also love to see Warren at Mayberry Days. While I agree with
everyone else, noone would ever replace "Fearless Fife", I think Warren was
very funny and a great addition at just the right time.
So who would we send our request for Warren at Mayberry Days to?

Re: I, too, would love to see Jack Burns come to Mayberry Days in Mt.
Airy!
What a great idea! And aren't you the clever one for thinking of it?
Why don't we invite him? It would probably do his spirit good.
Now, who should do the inviting? I think the leader of our little
group should be the one. After all, he's got some pull around Mayberry.

After watching Andy and Peggy singing a duet last nite I began wondering how
many different ladies Andy sang with. Didn't he sing with his date, Mary? It
seems to me that Helen never sang. Anyone remember some others and did Helen
ever sing on the show?

Subject: getting used to the color episode
I was born in 1946 and raised in Southern California and let me tell
you a short story about another time in my life that I was ignorant.
Every Saturday, most of the kids of my age went to the theater for the
matinee. Besides the newsreel and cartoon and serials and coming
attractions, we usually watched a Three Stooges short. In the shorts
that we watched, Shemp was the third stooge. It was not until the local
television stations started playing the Three Stooges that my generation
found out there was a Curly. Since the shorts were not rerun during
the matinees, we saw the current Three Stooges which only featured
Shemp, no Curly. Even though my generation was used to Shemp, it was no
time before we
accepted Curly as the third stooge, also. So when I read letters about
the replacement of Barney with Warren, I remember back to the time that
Curly became my other
third stooge and how I adjusted because I had been naive. The idea of
Mayberry is
often times naive and that is what we appreciate in TAGS. I learned a
lesson back then and today enjoy the Three Stooges no matter who the
third stooge is. It seems we have changed to a critical bunch when we
start complaining about what we cherish and fing-
er pointing at something that we should sit back and enjoy. Be it black
and white or color, Barney or, no Barney, Warren or no Warren, Floyd or
no Floyd, Ellie or no Ellie, this is still the Mayberry we love to visit
when we get the chance.

If you really want your stone fireplace to look good, get a print of "The
Angelus"
from Weaver's Department Store. That'll be the cherry on top of the sundae.
Another good song that remembers Mayberry is by a group called Rascal Flatts.
It's entitled "I Miss Mayberry". You can picture Mayberry and the people by
just listening to it.
Have a Mayberry kind of day.

YEAH!!!! My granddaughter finally got to see my all time favorite TAGS
episode on TVLAND last night! Wish they had shown the birdman episode
immediately after "Opie's Charity". Then she would have a crush on Opie for
sure!

A tie between Ozzie Nelson and Ozzie Osbourne as a top10 favorite tv dad?
What's with that? I like some of Ozzy O's music, but to rank him as a top10 TV
dad? And my favorite tv dad (not favorite tv show, but tv dad): Ward Cleaver
was #8, behind Fred Sanford and Archie Bunker? Curious.....curious......Even
though he's my #2 choice, I was glad to see Andy win it all.
And as far as Warren Ferguson goes, to me he was one of the few bright spots of
the episodes post #159. Maybe it's because I liked his Burns/Schreiber schtick
he did for years. I always enjoyed him.

Here's an update about the Mayberry Cast Reunion in Nashville this weekend at
Gaylord Opryland Resort.
They have decided to offer the Autograph Session, beginning at 1 p.m. on
Saturday, as a separate ticket for $27.31 (including tax). You can order it in
advance by calling 1-888-999-OPRY.
You can also call that same number to order tickets to Aunt Bee's Blue Ribbon
Dinner and Cast Reunion Show on Friday ($65.00, plus tax and gratuity) or
hotel room packages that include all of the above, two nights at the Gaylord
Opryland Resort, one breakfast, and a Grand Ole Opry ticket for the Saturday
night
Opry, which includes a Mayberry Tribute.
My guess is that tickets to the Autograph Session will also be available at
Guest Services at the hotel on Friday and Saturday, if tickets still remain at
that time.

I agree with the post yesterday concerning Alan Jackson's song about
9-11.....Whenever I hear it on the radio, and I find myself singing along with
the song, I have always substituted the line "Andy Griffith Show reruns"
instead of "I Love Lucy reruns."

Dear Jay,
I haven't ever really thought about Alan Jackson's choice of television show
that he used in his song "Where Were You?" Maybe it was because "I Love Lucy"
was such a tremendous comedy and the decade of the fifties were, to many
people, an innocent period of life. I honestly can not say how innocent of a
decade it was, as I was born in 1966. The sixties introduced our nation to
Viet Nam, Woodstock, riots in California and New Jersey, and of course, the
assassinations of John F. and Bobby Kennedy, as well as Martin Luther King.
I'll have to go looking through my old cassette tapes to find out the name of
the album. But, the Bellamy Brothers recorded a great song called, "The Andy
Griffith Show." It was recorded, if I remember correctly, in the late 80s.
In the song, they talk about AIDS, terrorism (before it came to American
soil), and greediness of the era. Their escape would be The Andy Griffith
Show. They mention practically every character from the show at some point in
the song. The final chorus sums it up the best:
"The Andy Griffith Show,
the biggest hassle there was makin' moonshine.
They sat swingin' on the front porch,
with an easy mind.
Oh, and maybe it wasn't real,
but when this old world blows.
I hope I end up on The Andy Griffith Show.
I wish life was like The Andy Griffith Show."

Knowing how the writers used to put stuff in the stories that were real from
their own experiences, I wonder if the cold drinks at Wally's were out of
somebody's memory? Anybody ever seen a real Huckleberry Smash or Nectarine
Crush?
I was always surprised they never pulled a Nehi out of that cooler. Or at
least a Cheerwine!
