Andy Griffith on TVLAND
When I was watching the TV guide channel last night, did my eyes deceive me or did I see that TAGS was back in the 9:00 PM time slot?

Hey From Mayberry Days and the Mayberry Motor Inn
Folks, The first day of Mayberry Days has come and gone and it was a great start to a Mayberry weekend. Today started with the Annual Golf tourny and this evenings awards show. It was a wonderful day here in Mayberry with the weather being perfect for a day of golf. The evenings show went well and I'm not the best judge to say how well it went but I know I had a great time. The best thing for me is that the Mayberry Motor Inn (http://www.MayberryMotorInn.com) now has highspeed Internet access so I can stay in just a little better contact when I'm here in Mayberry. Be sure to stay here if you ever are in Mt. Airy. Alma and LP (the owners) are THE best. I don't know how many reports I can file but I'm looking forward to the rest of the weekend. If you're coming to down, be sure to say "hey" to Floyd. --Allan Newsome ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Andy's Hip
Folks, Let me set this straight for everybody. Andy had his hip replaced and he is currently back home (in California not NC) healing up from this major surgery. He is doing well. All those reports on the Internet and in papers are just wrong. I have very good sources. :) --Allan Newsome ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Re: Trained noticers
Ok you trained noticers...while we are compiling our Nellie "Schwump" list, I have one more question. In the episode with Keevy Hazelton, was that Jackie Joseph(aka Ernest T.'s beloved Rowenna) dancing behind Keevy when he was singing the "rock" version of My Hometown? The one with the dark hair sure looked like her...

Nellie
>>>OK, when the girls all come to Andy's house the first time In a "A wife for >>>Andy" (#92 I think) is she the last lady in the door..or the third from the >>>last?<<< Our "Nellie" is the third from the last in that scene. I had to pull out my DVD to check on that. I think I may have been the one to say that she had dark hair. By that, I simply meant that she wasn't a blond. Now that I look at her again, her hair is apparently a rather light to medium shade of brown. (Of course, with black and white, it's hard to know what color it really is. Thelma Lou was actually a redhead, but you can't tell in black and white!) Also, I believe she's a little older than I was thinking -- probably somewhere past forty. She is an attractive woman, though.

Mayberry Days
I envy all of you who are headed to Mt Airy. I'll make it one day. I'm not too far away, but they always schedule Mayberry Days on the same day as a Va. Tech home football game and I just can't miss the Hokies at home. Have lots of fun and say "Hey" to everyone from all of the Hokie fans.

Andy Griffith's injury
Hi Everyone, Mary Grace, I read that Mr. Griffith took a bad fall at his home and broke his hip. I read that they put a rod in his hip. He was about to undergo hip replacement surgery. They are not sure when he will have his surgery now. I called TV Land and thanked them for putting TAGS back on at 9 pm :O) Silvia from California, who wishes she was in Mayberry - Get your own web address for just $1.99/1st yr. We'll help. Yahoo!

Andy and Oxford American
The "Oxford American" (http://www.oxfordamericanmag.com/) bills itself as "The southern magazine of good writing." I quite agree. Once a year, they focus on music of the south, and the issue includes a CD. The songs are usually great ones, but not are not necessarily widely know. One of the tracks on this year's is Andy Griffith's "Mama Guitar" from "A Face in the Crowd." Also, the last page (right before the back cover) consists of a full-page picture of "Andy Griffith on a lonesome road, two miles west of Piggott, Arkansas 1956)." The play on words was not lost on me.

Andy & The Center for the Study of the American South
I just received the most recent newsletter from the Center for the Study of the American South (affiliated with the University of North Carolina). There's a nice story about Andy Griffith donating his papers to the Southern Historical Collection. The article can be seen at http://www.unc.edu/depts/csas/archives_resources/griffith.html There's a great picture of Andy from "A Face in the Crowd" that doesn't show up on the web link. There's also a link to the catalog listings at http://www.lib.unc.edu/mss/inv/g/Griffith,Andy.html Don Good "Andy Griffith is a North Carolina treasure and a national folk hero." ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Jack-O-Lantern Patterns
Several years ago, somewhere on someone's TAGS website, there were 3 or 4 Jack-O-Lantern TAGS patterns. One was of Barney, one was of Floyd, I think one was of Opie and maybe one of Goober. I can't remember exactly. Do these still patterns exist somewhere that I could once again download the images? I carved all of these years ago and they were great fun, especially when the little kids came to the door and their parents recognized the images. Anyway when I carved these in natural pumpkins, they obviously have a very short shelf life, but now they are making artificial carve-able pumpkins. So I want to re-carve them to keep for years to come. If anyone still has access to these patterns, would you please let me know where I can get them again.

I know
I actually know who the mystery lady is (known to some as Nice Dress Nellie) that everyone has been asking about in the last several digests. She is Mr. Schwamp's sister. dan ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Mystery Lady--clearing things up
OK I watched "Andy Saves Barney's Morale" and I know who Nellie is. I believe she is the third from last bachelorette who enters Andy's house in "A wife for Andy". What confused me was someone's comment that her hair is dark. I would say its more like a like a light brunette. She is the one I mentioned is in a picture on page 27 of the coffee table book "Mayberry Memories", where she is shown coming out of a cell. In an ironic twist, I am excited to tell you that she is in at least two episodes with Mr. Schwamp. In "Aunt Bee Takes A Job" she is the one who walks up with Mr. Schwamp to investigate the accident after Andy shoots out the tire. In "Otis the Artist" She is the one that Mr. Schwamp is shown speaking to!! Is there a connection there So our "Nellie" List so far: Andy Saves Barney's Morale #16 A Wife for Andy #92 Aunt Bee Takes a Job #171 Otis the Artist #175 Politics Begins at Home #200 ?? (Aunt Bee runs for Council) She is NOT the Lady giggling with the man behind Barney as Andy us talking about the Microphone in Barney and the Choir. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
