Books
In the opening scene of Jailbreak, Barney is reading a book entitled Penitentiary. In other episodes, he reads The Art of Judo and The Art of Unarmed Self-Defense (they are actually the same book with different words pasted on the cover). In The Bazaar, Warren claims to have read all of the Perry Mason stories It took Edith Gibson three weeks to get through The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire BTW folks, Romeo and Juliet is not a book, it is a PLAY. Why every list of "the world's greatest books" includes Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet is something I will never understand. But I digress. In The Manhunt, Andy says that when it comes to fishing, Izaak Walton "wrote the book." This is a reference to The Complete Angler, first published in 1653 and remarkably, still in print today.

Books on TAGS
Don't forget Barney's copy of "Poems of Romance" by T. Johnathan Osgood". Don't know if we can count Aunt Bee's "Rose Poetry". That was probably just one selection out of Alice Endicott Stong's book.

Ammonia or freon ?
When Aunt Bea's refrigerator went out and she called Gomer ( instead of the man ), Gomer busted the line and all went running. Aunt Bea referred to ammonia . I recover freon at my job sometimes and know ammonia is POWERFUL stuff and would run too if there was a leak. I recover freon from all types of new and OLD OLD freezers and refrigerators. I often see freezers like the one in the episode in question. However I have never seen a floor freezer ( that plugs into an electric outlet ) that runs on ammonia. Ammonia freezers and refrigerators I see are the ones that go into campers and run off of propane. I dont think that was ammonia in Aunt Bea's freezer.Do you ?

Typo in "Three Wishes for Opie"
Was on tonight on METV. When Barney came into the courthouse reading a book, Andy asked him what it was he was reading. Barney told him it was a book "Psychic Phenomena" and handed it to Andy. When Andy had it, the camera was behind Andy and you could see over his right shoulder the first line of the book's title and it was spelled "PSYHIC". Did anyone else catch this typo??

Barney also used a book about judo and one about psychic phenomena. And he had that book of poetry he used to help Opie when Opie was in love with Helen.

In The Shoplifters episode, the little old lady that Barney accused of shoplifting said she always carried her Bible with her. Also, in A Wife for Andy, Andy was trying to read The Legend of Sleepy Hollow to Opie when all of the ladies started showing up at his house. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Floyd and Teddy Roosevelt
TAGS fans, Watched "Banjo Playing Deputy" last night. I had forgotten the portion where Andy and Floyd discuss Teddy Roosevelt's saying, "Speak softly and carry a big stick." I love when Floyd says something about how a big stick would be handy in a gang fight because you could just swing it around and you were bound to hit something. Andy looks so surprised at the line I almost wonder if it were an ad-lib on Howard McNear's part.

RE: Books mentioned
When Barney says, "sharper than a serpent's tooth" he's quoting Shakespear (King Lear Act 1, scene 4). Don "rose poetry" Good ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Bible and Books
TAGS fans, One mention of the Bible is in the hands/purse of the lady shoplifter. Also, Barney mentions having read all those "childish classics". He also reads "Spells, Omens, Charms and Portents to Ward Off Bad Luck" and the collected works of Buzz Fluhart. Andy reads "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" to Opie (though it doesn't seem to be the Washington Irving version of the story. And let's not forget that Goober reads more than fifteen books a month!

How about "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and Grimm's Fairy Tales"? I'm sure there are plenty more. Scooter ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
