While I followed the link to see psychic phenomena misspelled, and didn't see 
THAT, what I did see was even better.  I found I can watch Andy Griffith on my 
cell!  Now, for ME that is BIG BIG news.

Two Chairs No Waiting 131: Opie the Man

2011-04-15 Thread Allan Newsome
***Two Chairs No Waiting 131: Opie the Man***

This episode you’ll hear just a bit more about the Pine Ridge, AR
connection to the people of Mayberry.  Did you know that Gomer’s
grandpa is from the home town of “Lum and Abner?”  That’s right!
Gomer’s Grandpa, Sergeant Otis Pyle, is a very close relative of Abner
Peabody.

Next we’ll hear some feedback from a fellow listener before we get
into the actual topic of our show.

Finally we’ll get into the meat of the show.  We all know what a
wonderful son Andy Taylor has and we’ll take a few minutes to be
reminded.  I know we’ll all agree that Opie is a man.

Three Point Two

2011-04-15 Thread chuck talley
I agree that the 3.2 may have been Otis's blood level count for a long time. 
But remember that most things worked out for the best in Mayberry. Otis 
eventually got sober and became an entreprenur (business innovator) by opening 
his own business - Otis's Ice Cream Mobile Delivery Vehicle - and he had the 
license to drive the truck. - The Gollywobbler

Count ISTVANDELEKY (or whatever)

You know, every time I hear that name pronounced, I hear  it as "COUNTESS", not 
COUNT.  Strange, isn't it?

Otis and beer

2011-04-15 Thread Harry Brewbaker
Didn't Skippy once say that there was a place over near Yancey that served 
beer.  Maybe that's where Otis got his.  He also could have gone all the way to 
Raleigh.  That's where Andy had a glass while dining with Peggy.

re: Word usage and spelling

Not to put too fine a point on it, but "prey" can stand alone as a verb. e.g., 
"The lion will prey on the gazelle."

Yes, you are correct and no, you are not hurting anyone's feelings. I stated 
that PREY is a noun, however, it does turn into a verb when you add ING.

3.2 percent and my response

2011-04-15 Thread Holland Shoaf

Thanks to all who wrote in about what 3.2 is. I assumed it was just that. 
Alcohol.
I was more interested in Otis's 3.2 drinking days. Evidently he started out 
with the mild stuff ( though still intoxicating ) and worked his way into the 
illegal moonshine ring. I could dig deeper and asked where he bought his beer 
back in his younger days if he was just that .. a beer drinker in Mayberry . 
Obviously he was a resident of Mayberry ( and Mayberry was a dry town/county ) 
since his first offense was in Mayberry. Wait  maybe the report Andy read 
was just that, his first offense in Mayberry at that time. Otis may have lived 
elsewhere and then once he moved into Mayberry found the spirits their were 
just as lively as Count Istavantaleky ( spelling ? ).
 
 
 
ps. I did not know that the book of Psychic Phenomona was missprinted on the 
book that Andy held in the episode of Opies 3 Wishes-

3.2

2011-04-15 Thread Mike Haviland
I always thought 3.2 was in reference to Otis's  blood alcohol. I think it's 
due to the fallout that has affected the milk suppy. Keep a good thought. Mike
