RE: Wild Hogs
>>Has any body seen "Wild Hogs" yet. Some very direct Mayberry references (not too bad) and a repeat of a Barney stunt >>involving glass. Joe, I saw Wild Hogs this weekend. I grinned from ear to ear when Tim Allen spoke of Mayberry and Aunt Bee!!! Didn't think about the glass breaking being a Barney stunt, but now that you mention it..I totally agree.

some updates
We had some special guests in our shop this weekend Kenneth "Otis" Junkin, and Jeff "Howard" Branch! They made it so fun here, and we were so excited to see them and to have them in our shop! We also attended the Surry County Arts Ball on St. Patricks Day, and we were THRILLED to see Betty Lynn there. She is doing great, and said that she is still unpacking. She also exclaimed that she LOVES her view of the mountains!!! We just wanted to update you on her since she hasnt gotten 'out and about' too much since being here in Mt. Airy. We also made a 'pit stop' on our way to Myrtle Beach... we stopped in Siler City. We got to see the place where "Aunt Bee" lived after TAGS, and her beautiful grave site. We have some pictures of that trip, and of our exciting weekend on our website, under the "Events" page. So please check those out! http://www.mayberryonmain.com Hope all is well. Thanks for your continuing support of us! and "Everything is OK in Myberry!"

WALLYS
Hi Gang, My oil change center (plus another in town) use the pit method for oil changing. Only difference is back then they didn't have Penzoil :) Glad to see some discussion about Wally's. A few weeks ago I posted about the older gas stations like Wally's and a link to a site full of pics that brought back memories hopefully to a few. No one commented so I assumed there was no interest, but even so, actions speak louder than words, RIGHT? You may recall the interior bay of Wally's shown in the episode where the Gomer allowed the Hanson brothers to park their car in there while Wally was gone, one stayed hidden in the trunk and robbed the place at nite.

Andy's autograph
Andy rarely signs anything and most of what he has signed is studio publicity shots and there are a lot of forgery's around. The safest would probably be a cancelled check. I beleive that a expert on Andy's signature has some information on e-bays website. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Yes, Sharon,
In 1953 I worked in a Grease Pitt much like the one in Mayberry . 35
cents an hour . I was "in charge" of it . It involved cleaning and saving the
"Bulk oil" to resale .
This was rural Fayetteville Georgia during the Korean war .
It was the only way I knew of to change oil . It was recycled, and every
Oil change we would have to grease the ball joints {The undercarriage} , fill
the Differential and transmission with the most terrible smelling grease ever
made . For all this I got to carry a grease rag in my back pocket . That was
something for a 14 year old .
I'd almost forgotten that innocent time . Thanks for bringing it up .
Ben and Sarah
Fayetteville Ga.

Greetings fellow fans, I am interested in seeing the Moore & Moore's "Find Me a Man Like Goober" music video. For those of us stuck in a "Mayberry wanna-be" hick town and can't go to the Video Release Party, when will it be on TV? Is there going to be a premier TV showing? Please let us know, we would like to see it. We would rather be there with ya'll, but will have to settle.
