Mayberry moments/100th podcast
Just returned from Haiti where I was part of a group providing ministry and relief, and I had not one but two Mayberry moments. First, someone made a reference to a security guard being like Barney Fife with a bullet in his pocket (seems there are Barneys everywhere!) and second, I was sitting in a restaurant at a hotel in Jacmel and, lo and behold, I heard a Latin rendition of "Santa Lucia" playing in the background. That, of course, was the song Barney, then Gomer, then ultimately the trio sang in "The Song Festers." I imagine I was the only one in the place to make that connection, but it was nice to have that little touch of Mayberry. On another note, I'm honored Allan used the sound files I provided of Andy at the 2004 Mayberry Days on the big (and I do mean "big!") 100th episode of the "Two Chairs, No Waiting" podcast earlier this week, and even named me executive producer. I hated I couldn't tune in live, but I just listened to it online and really enjoyed it. If you haven't started listening to the podcast, now is a great time to do so. Allan does a great job with it every week. It'll be the best 15-20 minutes of your week! Have a great Mayberry day!

Dooley
His name must have been Tom Dooley. The song says, "Hang down your head Tom Dooley, hang down your head and cry. Hang down your head Tom Dooley. Poor boy you're about to die." Then again it could have been some kin to Tom Dooley."May the Spirit of Mayberry Be With You." Kenneth G.

Re: e bullet
At the end of the ebullet yesterday there two pictures. One is of a t shirt with a picture of Andy and w(hat) w(ould) d(o) and one of doug dillard's new album with him standing at the front of a blue pick up that had emmett's fix it shop on it. It was just neat. On another note: our chapter has been through the first two seasons and not found both doors open on the court house, yet. We go on to season three today. Also yesterday, barney was at his best helping andy escape the divorce proceedings with the darlin's with a white horse.

song
"...Tell me Dooley's first name. Ya know, that feller the Darling boys sang about." Tom? But I'm basing my answer on the Kingston Trio, not the Darlings. Martha Humphreys, the aged hippy Huntsville, AL ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

churches
I was watching the final season of the show and on the episode where someone leaves the church $500 I noticed the church had changed it's name. The pastor was the same, but when they were leaving the church after a meeting the name of the church was shown on the sign outside. It was no longer All Souls Church. Just an observation.

Gotten behind
I've gotten badly behind in reading my E mails; I've had a strange "compelshion" to finish my model railroad, which shows selected parts of my home town of Newport, Delaware in 1970. Even then, small towns everywhere had vestiges of Mayberry ways. Like how my Great Grandfather was still remembered for his tendency to punch somebody if the town baseball team (which had three of his sons on it at one time) lost. I'm afraid it was not a "boop" punch like Floyd's. Or how my Grandfather, as Coach, owned The Official Water Dipper that everybody used; no concern for catching diseases then! That old water dipper is still one of my proudest possessions. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Re: Dan's "mammon"
>>>Neil, what Regis said as the gold truck approached was "Worshippers of mammon." With mammon referring to wealth or money. Jesus refers to it in Acts 6:24 when he says "You cannot serve God and mammon." Personally, I've never had much mammon so I've not had much of a problem.<<< "I done seen a mammon once. Big ol' furry tusked critter... sorta' elephant like. Saw it over at the La Brea tar pits, all stuffed and propped up, right off of Will-Shire Boulevard."
