Floyd's first show
What TAGS was Howard McNear's first appearance? I was asked that this morning and could not come up with it. I know that Convicts at Large was the last appearance before his stroke. And, I know his last show, which is the color episode when Floyd wins the gas station prize. I have not had a chance to look at my DVD's to find the show. Anyone know? And, which number episode is it? "It's hot. Know what temperature it is? It's 92. It's hot." Bee in New Concord, OH Brenda J.

Mary McGoon
Being a fan of old time radio, I am aware that Mary McGoon was a regular on the Bob and Ray show. However I am not sure of any phrase that Bob and Ray used that Andy appropriated. The only one that comes to mind is "write if you get work". Speaking of old time radio, Andy was a big fan of radio. His early records play like a radio show. Don Knotts relates his first meeting with Andy in his book "Barney Fife And Other Characters I Have Known". Don says when he first met Andy, Andy asked Don "Do you appear on the Bobby Benson Radio show?" In fact Don did play the part of Windy Wales on the Bobby Benson show. That was an indication that Andy was a big fan of old time radio, being able to recognize Don just by his voice. Orville Hendricks - Peddling Butter and Eggs. Several times when I took butter and eggs to the Taylor household, Beatrice Taylor was listening to soap operas on the radio. She was so worried about Cynthia. _ The New Busy is not the old busy.

upcoming book
I ordered Andy Griffith's book online a couple of weeks ago. The anticipated release date was July 15th. I checked the status of my order this morning and it said the anticipated shipping date for my order would be July 19th. I am really looking forward to reading this book!! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Upcoming book
I just learned yesterday of the upcoming biography "I Appreciate It: My Life" with Andy Griffith and Jim Clark. Does anyone know the release date? And with Ron Howard writing the forward, there's only one word to describe this book - BIG ! I just hope the forward is really about Andy, and not Arnold's dad. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
