Another Andy / Barney reference
In this week's episode of Better Call Saul, a character named Mike is hauled in for questioning (what kinda questioning? We'll figure out some), so he calls in his lawyer, Jimmy. Jimmy shows up at the police station in his "Matlock" suit, and the dialogue goes like this: Jimmy: James McGill, here to see my client. Detective: You look like Matlock. Jimmy: No, I look like a young Paul Newman dressed as Matlock. (The detective takes him into the interrogation room) Detective: (indicates Mike) Say hello to Barney Fife. Jimmy: Wrong show, but thanks for playing. Paul Mulik ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Alumni Sighting
Just caught the last few minutes of MASH on MeTV. Who should appear but Opie himself, playing a soldier who had his appendix removed. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Sing
Ken, when you were singing at the manure spreaders convention, did they give you a special microphone that picks up sound rl good? I wanted to become a member of that organization, but Jack Egbert blackballed me. Cheryl Marietta, GA (Jack Egbert was NO prize!)

Another Thing that Doesn't Make Sense
I just recently came across another Thing that Doesn't Make Sense that has been the source of puzzlement for years. In the episode "Opie's Most Unforgettable Character" Andy, Howard and Goober are seen sitting and talking in front of the courthouse. At 11:40 Andy says "Well, I guess I've done a little living in my time!" at which Goober is shown as a close-up and is heard to mumble "You can say that again..." As he is saying this his mouth is shown to be slightly open with absolutely no sign of movement of mouth or lips, as though he were now a practicing ventriloquist! Anyone else ever catch this??

Citizens Array-est, Citizens Array-est!
I had a bit of a Mayberry moment last night. My wife and I were having supper at a restaurant last night, when a trooper with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol U-turned his way into a parking spot next to the street in front of the building. I heard two or three patrons saying, "Citizens arrest!" When he walked inside the restaurant, one lady told him she wanted his ticket book so she could write him a ticket. I didn't hear, but I'm almost certain he called her "Nutsy" under his breath. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Characters playing characters trivia
Here is a new trivia challenge for your potential amusement: name an instance when a CHARACTER (not an actor) in Mayberry is seen playing another character in Mayberry. Let me clarify this. I do not mean when an ACTOR played more than one role, for example Jack Dodson first appeared as insurance man Ed Jenkins and then later played Howard Sprague. I mean when a Mayberry CHARACTER played a character. Here is an example: in The Pageant, we see Aunt Bee playing Lady Mayberry. Get it? Go!

Ken's solo
Ken, you always were known as the kind of guy who spreads it on thicker than anybody else. Paul Mulik >>>I will have you know that back when I was a young guy I actually sang a solo >>>of Santa Lucia at the opening of the Clark County Annual Manure Spreaders >>>Convention. I understand people are still talking about it. -- Ken Anderson ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Convention
I want all of you to note how I restrained myself and did not say anything about how appropriate it was for Ken Anderson to be going to a Manure Spreaders Convention. dan --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
