Maggie & The Dilllards
I had the great experience this past weekend of getting to meet Maggie Peterson and Rodney and Doug Dillard. They held a concert/comedy show in Smithfield NC. They were very entertaining, and Rodney made up for all the talking he missed out on while on TAGS. I had the opportunity to speak to them one on one and let me tell you they are some of the nicest people I have ever met. It was almost like getting together with family you haven't seen in a long time. What was really refreshing to see was how they interacted with all of their fan base, they were very patient with everyone. I don't believe that anyone that wanted to see them was left out. And Maggie is so personable, and when I asked her to take picture with me, she replied, only if you let me hug you ! The first picture didn't turn out so well and she was gracious enough to offer another, although I have admit, the hug she gave me was worth a second helping. She was just great. And that Rodney is some story teller, he and Doug were so incredible together. I laughed so hard at some of there experiences they shared. It was a great night for all of us. A special thanks to my son James, who gave me these tickets last Christmas, I love you son ! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Real Mayberry Moment
Had to send this to all my friends at the bulletin board - I know that you will 'preciate it the most! My husband and I spent time in Mt. Airy this past weekend. The Chuck Wagon Gang (an old fashioned quartet that we both grew up listening to) was giving a benefit concert at the Mt. Airy High School auditorium last Saturday night and we traveled from our home in Gaston, SC (right outside of Columbia) to attend. We arrived early so we could stroll downtown for a while and if any of you have a chance to visit there aside from Mayberry Days please take advantage of it because you can really get that small town feeling when the crowds aren't quite so large. We followed our usual routine of buying souvenirs and then went to Main Oak Emporium to see the memorabilia collection. Every time, I see things I didn't notice before. This time it was the newspaper article about the time Andy appeared with Elvis Pressley. I didn't have time to read it all and have not been able to locate it online so if any of you know how I can get a copy of it I would be forever grateful! The real Mayberry Moment came right after this. I decided to go back to a new store called Opie's Candy Store. I got T-shirts and candy for my grandchildren and when I went to pay I saw a sign that said they didn't take debit or credit cards. I told the proprietor that I would have to get my husband before I could check out because he had all our cash. The proprietor said, "Do you have a check?" "Yes", I replied, "but it's out of state." He said, "Is it good?" I said "Yes, it is." He said, "That's good enough for me." He not only took my check on my word alone but all he checked was that my signature matched my driver's license! Can't find that kind of trust around my neck of the woods! Just one more reason to believe that Mayberry still exists! Sorry this is so long but I thought you might enjoy reliving my Mayberry Moment with me! PS- My favorite quote is "Act like somebody!"

Recycling Elixir Bottles -
California redemption value on Colonel Harvey Indian Elixir bottles is .04 cents each! I always do my part to keep the Earth green by recycling all my empty elixir bottles regularly. Just last week, I took a load of empties to the recycler while whistling "Toot Toot Tootsie", and I'll be danged if no less than 15 folks down there weren't whistlin' the same tune! Just goes to show you, that at $1.00 a bottle, Colonel Harvey's Indian Elixir is popular from coast to coast! (Aunt Bee says, "I'll take two!!") A.Acevedo - MPk. _ Exercise your brain!

Barney's Poem
Perhaps a second poem about Barney should be written that goes: There once was deputy named Fife, He was afraid to get himself a wife,. His tongue was all tied and he was all knots inside, cause he never proposed to a girl in his life. Kenneth G.

Quotes
I like it when Andy says Hallelujah, although a bit jaded, after Barn's uvula declaration. Puts me in mind of holiday time at the post office; the clerk told me they were just about out of the religious stamps-they're the most popular and I sang out "Hallelujah!" He looked a bit startled but all others present just grinned and nodded. Warmed my heart, it did.

QUOTES GALORE
Hi Gang, Well the quote thread is a fun one for sure. A few of my fav's from key characters Barney in Pickle Story -- the line about kerosene cucumbers. Something like "I don't know how I can face the future, knowing there's 12 quarts of these kerosene cucumbers in it. Andy my hearts just not in it.." Andy replies "It's not your heart we need, just your stomach.." Andy, especially in earlier episodes would often say "that's an OUTSTANDING idea" And one of my very favorites is when they are holding the rummage sale for the scolby house fund. Rafe hollister is holding a gadget and pumping its handle, buys it and asks Andy what it is. Andy doesn't know and ole Rafe says "I don't know either but I always wanted one..."

RE: Favorite Quotes II
I thought of a couple more of my favorite quotes: 1. Briscoe - "I ain't about to be beat to death with no spoon!!!" 2. Ernest T - "I can't hear your a-men-i-nees!" 3. Gomer - "If she's locked in the ON position, she's gonna run on you." 4. Gomer - "Hi, live saver man." 5. Barney (as a woman) - "I want to put one dollar on the horsie's nose".

It's The Best Salt I've Ever Tasted!
Attention: Mayberry Shoppers This week's special at the Dime Store--two pound packages of salt for 10 cents a package, either the plain kind or the kind with iodide added, a necessary nutrient. Quantities limited to ten packages. That means that for about one dollar you can buy (depending on the amount of salt you and your family use) enough salt to last for a year, maybe more. It's a deal Newton Monroe couldn't resist. And it's good salt! Laura Lee Hobbs, Dime Store Clerk and Gold Truck Watcher Extraordinaire "I'm ept." AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Mayberry Quotes
Like most of you, I could sit here all day and think of great lines from TAGS. Some of my favorites have already been mentioned, here are some others: (They may not be exact) "Andy, If you flew a quail through this room, every woman in here would point" "I'm sorry Barney, I'll try to be more considerate next time I attack you." Andy: "A worm" Barney: "No, it's vicsious, a killer" Andy: "A mad worm" Briscoe: "Miss Bea, you kisses are sweet and highly valuable. But to be perfectly honest, they just ain't worth the pain." Barney: "I gotta a uvuela, you gotta uvuela, they gotta uvuela, all God's chillin' gotta uvuela." And I believe they poem Barney accused Opie of writing on the sidewalk was: There once was a deputy named Fife Who carried a gun and a knife The gun was all dusty The knife was all rusty Cause he never caught a crook in his life. I'll stop now, but as I said before, I could sit here and enjoy doing this all day. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Barney Poem and favorite quote
I like the Barney poem too. I believe it went: There once was a deputy named Fife, who had both a gun and a knife, but the gun was all dusty and the knife was all rusty, cause he never caught a crook in his life. I like when Andy was saying that Opie couldn't be the boy who wrote it because, he hasn't learned how to write yet. The one scene and quote that gets me every time is when Andy opens the door and Briscoe is standing there. Andy says, "this is a surprise" and when Briscoe dead pans, "ain't it" I crack up. I also like when Barney is going to show Ernest T how to enter a room and when he knocks on the door Ernest T says, "I wonder who that could be." Kim - Wylie, TX - Now that's room service!

Favorite quotes and then some
There are many, and a number have been quoted here.but I'm partial to these, and many more: "My mother was the same way" "Bless her heart" "Maybe you ought to go church more often" "I got a hobbyit's drinkin'" "that's fast on water" On another subject, what do you suppose was the security issue at the Mayberry County Courthouse/Jail facility that prompted the addition of the locking bar in the gun case? Near as I can tell, its not there until Season 4, Citizen's Arrest episode. Might be fun to speculate on what would have prompted the added security! ThanksLove ya all.
