Slickwoods
In episode Goodbye Dolly when Aunt Bee is looking over Dolly she says if Opie had this look he would go right to bed. Aspirin, hot bath and 4 slickwoods." I was wondering what is she referring to when she says slickwoods? Thanks Jed Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
RE: What Rafe said.
Hi All, I can put this one to rest... I have watched the scene in question with closed caption on and it shows in wording Rafe saying "Well, that's me" not what it could sound like. Mayberry is a clean place...the only language that you will hear will come from the hawks that Andy talks to. Haha.

Anniversary
My wife and I are celebrating our 39th anniversary tomorrow. I was trying to think of something special to get her. I thought about a mink coat like Emmett, but decided that was too extravagant. Looked at the bed jackets but there was nothing in blue. Even considered a new septic tank, but we are on the city water/sewer system so that wouldn't work. I finally decided that for our 39th anniversary I am going to take her to Ireland. Then on our 50th I plan to go back and get her.

Hats and Nip it requests
Well Hey, we have been a little side-tracked so I wanted to ask this question one more time. My question to ponder today is about Ladies hats...and it has nothing to do with Frank Myers' berries either. In the color episode that Aunt Bee runs against Howard for town council, the show opens with Aunt Bee's Garden Club Meeting. The camera angle in the opening scene pans all the hats 0n their heads that are made of beautiful and colorful flowers. This seemed odd to me, to be at a meeting in a home, and the women were all adorned with these fancy hats. There was not hardly a bare head in the house. Even Nice Dress Nellie had her hat on. You would have thought it was Easter Sunday and the scene was of church..so tell me..was this common place for ladies to get all dolled up and fixed up for a Garden Club meeting at someone's home? I think they even had on their little white gloves. Of course, being I guy, I thought they should be wearing some pruning gloves in case they wanted to do any real gardening, Check it out..the colors really made full use of the new color capabilities of that day. Maybe Weavers just had a big sale and they all went as a group to buy one. Now me, I wear a ball cap a lot, but we don't see many of those in Mayberry until "the Baseball game". I need one of those big white wide-brimmed jobs that Joe Hamilton and Mayor Pike, and all those guys around town wear. Noting says Town Loafer like a big white hat. --- We have heard about enough about that tomato, but I'm not going to stifle anyone who wants to comment. Like Victor said before he went on to write two back-to-back Posts about it :-) "Ok folks let's not get bogged down on this subject." What would Barney say? I don't want to talk about. I don't want to talk aboutWell I might as well tell you. You're going to figure it out anyway..Thelma Lou and I had a big fight. We're finished.

TV guide
Can anyone supply a link to a still picture of the Andy and Opie TV guide that is seen in Walker's Drug Store in "The New Doctor?"

Garden Club
Joe, I actually looked up some garden clubs and there were (in this day and age) some ladies in hats. One even had an elegant fan! So I can just imagine how important the garden club was in Mayberry. It gave the ladies all an excuse to wear flowery hats and white gloves. I can picture them having tea and little crustless sandwiches. Talking about their daffodils, and the pine trees on Pine Street. One thing I've always admired about the citizens of Mayberry was they had gatherings. They went to lectures, club meetings, luncheons, house parties, band concerts, dances, boiled dinners. Anyway, sounds fun to me.

slickwoods and anniversary
To Jed: As for "4 slickwoods", I think Aunt Bee is actually saying "forced liquids". Ken-congratulations on your Anniversary!! As for a present for your wife, how about seeing if you can get a hold of Newton Monroe and see if he has anything left in the trunk of his car. Or do you 'spose he's out of the selling business and still painting these days? Have a Mayberry kind of day everyone!!! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Re: We don't all know this.
replying to your comment, what does county drawn mean ?? That is a new one on me. Do you mean a country draw ? I heard what Rafe said and think he drew out w e ee l l, Thats me. I thought the same thing but I know that they would never le the H word go out on the air in the 60's Heck, back then they could not say pregnant on TV. It was referred to "as being with child" or "one on the way" or "one in the oven" Alot has changed over the years, some good and some bad. That is why we all appreciate the Good moral family values and friendships of days gone by. With that said it brings me to another thing. I do not text and will not read a text message. That is so unpersonal. That is another story for another day. I am going down to Wally's and get a bottle pop.

Re: Donuts all around
I guess I owe Tom a donut as I did not distinguish between live tv and sit com recorded tv when I made my offer of a wager.? Fair enough - Tom - enjoy a donut with my compliments.? ? I will also happily pay Victor a donut for throwing in his two cents worth in my "defense" as it were.??In fact, why doesn't everyone in our Mayberry community grab a donut?- treat yourself better today!
