Them's fine bird names!
Hi all...thanks for the suggestions for bird names for my baby bluebirds out back! Keep 'em comin'..I love the ideas! Sam in Knoxville, I agree...Winken, Blinken and Nod are good ones (them's fine bird names...) Thanks :) And, Kim in TX, yes, naming the chicks after Andy, Opie and Aunt Bee are also fine bird names! Thanks :) I happened to think of Mary Grace, after Thel's cousin, or even Karen, the other cousin that was a sharp shooter (not of birds, of course)..only CLAY pigeons! That is, if there are several females in the brood! If we are lucky enough to see the little ones as they take their first flight, I'll be sure and see how many there are and if we can identify males or females. Hopefully, I will be able to catch a glimpse of them very soon. They seem to be getting bigger each day, as they are chirping louder and louder as Dad Barney and Mom Thelma Lou make numerous trips to the house toting nice juicy worms or crunchy bugs in their beaks. And, after these little ones are raised, I think Barn should treat Thel to a nice dinner for two (no dutch treat) at Morelii's...steak sandwich time, with soup AND salad...after all, Thel has been such a good Mom. Or, perhaps they could even go to the Bluebird Diner!?! Wonder if bluebirds dine at the Bluebird Diner? I bet they do. Was the diner where Juanita worked called the Bluebird Diner? Did Thel ever dine there? I bet not. Until next time...the tale of Barney and Thelma Lou the Bluebird pair, along with the little Fifes, continues...in my back yardkeep the ideas comin', all.

TV LAND
Well, it appears that TV LAND is headed in a direction of only showing color programs. I do wish they could have a separate channel for only black and white shows.

comfortable in our small town skin
Hello Friends, From one small town to another...Mayberry to Greensburg, KS, we love you and hope you come back stronger than ever. If a small town's fortitude has ever been tested, this may be it. Here in Nebraska many of us love Mayberry and TAGS because it reflected (and still does) many of our own towns, people and behaviors. One of the story lines that often goes through the show is how the rural folks act in the big city, or how they react when the big city people came to Mayberry. It set up some wonderful comedy.but let me assure you there was a lot of truth to it!I recently read a couple of articles in NebraskaLife magazine that reminded me of Mayberry, and if you don't mind, I'll share from them. David Bristow is managing editor and had this to say: .just insert North Carolina, and Raleigh and so on.bet it reminds you of something Andy would say: Nebraskans spend way too much time worrying about what rest of the country thinks about us--and nowhere is this truer than in our two largest cities. To many urban Nebraskans, rural Nebraska is the geeky sibling that they probably love, but whom they avoid on the school yard so as not to lose status with the cool kids from California and New York. And that's the behavior of a true hick. Doesn't that remind you a little of Mayberry getting all gussied up because that big movie makin' company was comin to town? We tried to tell them--Didn't We Andy? --Mayor Pike Well that's enough for now.I'll think I'll slip down to the fillin' station for a bottle of pop.

seat scooting, freezers and birds
I seem to recall years ago in Dallas that by law you had to enter a vehicle on the side nearest the sidewalk. I figured it was to keep people from walking into traffic or getting their car doors knocked off. Maybe that's no longer the case now because of the bucket seats and more parking garages. Today I was looking over the freecycle digest and saw a wanted item post. It was from the Taylor Family and the item they were looking for was a small deep freezer. I had to laugh and figured that Aunt Bee refused to call the man again, and now the Taylor Family's meat is defrosting. Joan, I thought maybe Barn and Thel would name their kids after their good friends. How about Andy, Helen and Opie or Bee depending on if they were boys or girls? Kim - Wylie, TX - Don't pick lemons.

ben weaver
Can anyone tell me why TAGS used so many men to play Ben Weaver? On two of the episodes, Christmas Story and The Merchant of Mayberry he was played by Will Wright. But a few others was different. Also, did anyone else see Opie reach his arm into the lemonade pitcher? I'm sure a lot of watchful eyes caught that. I just did though. Keep on Watchin and have a Mayberry Kinda Day! Cheri, ILLINOIS watches TAGS all the time. Where did we get that phony ten dollar bill? ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
