50 mph minus 45 equals
Long time since I posted. Good to be back in Mayberry. Was watching the episode where the fun girls drove through Mayberry doing 50 mph ( as Andy said to Barney ) . Later Andy told Daphne she must have been doing 45. If I take the latter from the former and use a popular algorithm, I would bet by mid show they wouldn't have been found guilty of speeding at all ( which was in a 20 mph zone )! Also it must have took them at least a few minutes to catch up to them , but were they still in Mayberry ? Did Skippy and Daphne do a U turn on the road somewhere and end back in Mayberry or were they in another town where our fearless crime fighters had jurisdiction there too? Surely Mayberry wasn't big enough that the chase started and ended inside the limits of Mayberry. Don't remember Palmerton Café in Mayberry. Doesn't mean there wasn't one.

Miss Crump
Miss Crump. Paul, I was just wonder why he was still calling her Miss Crump and not Helen. By that episode Opie Ill Got Gain, it was 12 episodes since Andy decided to court Helen Crump. He did that in A Wife for Andy. His first date with Helen wasn't until A Date For Gomer, the nest episode after Opie's Ill Got Gain. Seems like a long time for Andy to finally ask Helen for a date after he decided to court her. Just saying.. That's ok too.

Alumni sightings
Watching an old movie on TCM. Ron Howard's pal Glenn Ford, Barney's fave actor, was married to Debbie Reynolds. Among the faces in the movie were Aunt Bee (Francis Bavier) who was married to "Goldbrick" Wheeler. Came in after it started so I don't know the name. Eva Gabor was also in the movie. Another that did not send. Sheesh! Sent from my iPad ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Where does Goober live?
A day or two ago on one of the Facebook groups, the subject of residences came up, which got me to thinking: do we ever see Goober's residence? I've been thinking and thinking (without a bucket) and I can't think of a single appearance, until Mayberry RFD. There's a funny scene where Sam and Mike visit Goober, and a Mike is impressed by Goober's fishing trophy (mounted taxidermy fish), but it turns out Goober didn't actually catch it, he found it floating in the lake, dead. Anyway, someone said Goober lived at the gas station, but I'm pretty sure that's incorrect. For example, the first time we ever hear about Goober is in Man in a Hurry, when Gomer and Mr. Tucker are at the filling station. Gomer gives Mr. Tucker Goober's phone number, which implies that Goober doesn't live right there in the station. Then later, in Mind Over Matter (the one where Goober is convinced he has been seriously injured) when Aunt Bee drives to the gas station, Goober tells her, "I've got to go home, I've got to lay down right away ... I'll just go to my place," but Aunt Bee insists, "there's no one there to take care of you." So if someone can think of any TAGS episode in which we see Goober's residence or in which Goober mentions where he lives, please refresh my memory, which sometimes gets a little rusty these days.

Goober's Residence
In Goober's New Gas Station episode of Mayberry RFD Goober is shown living in a boarding house right adjacent to the gas station. He hears Howard digging in his oil pit and he comes out of the house in his red pajamas. Gomer said he had a little place to live in the back of the gas station because when he was let go for being "insufficient" in his duties, he had to move out. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Re: Where does Goober live?
Yes, that's the first time we see Goober's residence... RFD episode "Goober's Brother" (season 2). He lives in Mrs. Lowdermilk's boarding house. We see the boarding house again later that season in "Goober's Niece." His visiting niece is put up in the room next to Goober's.

Drive in at Mayberry
Something I wish they would have had in Mayberry was a good old fashioned root beer stand or food drive in of some sort. Back in the 50's and 60's just about every town had at least one root beer stand or Dairy Queen or some such place. Just think of all the great episodes that could have been built around that place. Cute car hops for Barney to trouble check for. Andy, Barney, Thelma Lou, and Helen, sitting in the car eating with their orders all mixed up, Howard having a crush on one of the car hops. All kinds of possibilities. Maybe Lydia Crosswaite could have worked there too. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
