The Holidays and a Platex glove
I want to wish each and everyone of you here at the message board a most blessed Holiday Season! You all play such an important part in bringing Mayberry to me. I used to feel so alone out there always wishing there was really a Mayberry and so much wanting to step back in time and live there. This past year, I found the message board and found all of you. All of you are so awesome! So kind and always helpful. Just like Mayberry. Allen, thank you to you and your family for the wonderful Christmas card. I looked back over the others you sent out over the years and they are all awesome. Some even brought tears to my eyes. As far as the latex glove story goes. All the talk about Snails Worms lately reminded me of a funny memory. Me and my children had conquered the fear of putting a worm on a hook, but not the fear of touching the fish to take it off the hook if we did catch one. So, one beautiful summer day we wanted to go fishing, but we had this dilema...my husband was at work, so we had no one to to handle the caught fish for us. Finally, my son Josh, now 20, then 12 or 13, says I can take the fish off the hook if you can figure out a way for me not to have to touch it. I turned on my thinking cap and thought of those yellow, platex gloves I use to do dishes. I was out of them, so my two boys went to the store and bought a pack of two, so off we went to the lake. There were several others there fishing as well, so we found our spot and started to bait hooks and get them in the water. We usually didn't have much luck catching anything, but of course today was quite the opposite. It's like the fish were under the water watching us fools and wanted to have some fun with us. It's like they were jumping on our hooks. Every time one of us caught a fish, we'd yell for Josh to Get the Gloves! He couldn't get them on fast enough, soon there was another fish, and then another, and then yet another. It never failed, he'd just take them off and we were yelling for the gloves again. We all got laughing so hard that our stomachs just hurt. The other people around the lake had quite a show that day, as we could hear others laughing at us. It was a wonderful day for all of us that day and we still share many laughs over it yet today. All it takes is someone saying Josh, get the gloves! Ben, this is the first time I seen the Night Before Christmas in Mayberry Poem. It was very well done, thank you for that. Well, I had better let someone else get a word in, I just wanted to share.

Still Learnin'
Good Mayberry mornin' everyone. As a member still learnin' I appreciate so much what all of you bring to our Mayberry Group. Y'all are welcome to come sit on my porch anytime and share a lemonaide. Allen, I hope you had a wonderful Birthday! Ken, I loved your Christmas List..very fitting ideas. Harry, your additions to that list are as well wonderful. I do have a few questions for anyone who may know the answers. I am still in the process of collecting all of the shows seasons and have almost all of them. I notice that there are several DVD's out there that also have episodes on them as well. Sometimes they are called Volumes or the Best Of. Are these additional episodes or if I have the complete 8 seasons, will I already have them? I don't want to miss any. Also, are there any extra shows or movies that were done after the original series was over? And what about Mayberry RFD? I can't find those at all. I was also wondering if the name of Andy's wife has ever been mentioned and if so, what is it? Come and sit on my porch, there is always room.

Out of the Loop
Hello and I hope everyone is having a Mayberry kinda' day! I have been a bit out of the loop lately with what's been going on in Mayberry, but am back full time now to check in on everyone. I just got done listening to my first Two Chairs no Waiting and enjoyed it very much. I would like to put a great big THANK YOU out there to everyone who is involved with that and to all that have been a part of this message board for so many years. It is wonderful to come to a place where everyone shares so many of the feelings of Mayberry. I am a bit curious about what's going on with all the cow and mosaic talk. :-)Can I be filled in on that? Also, does anyone know if the name of Andy's wife has ever been mentioned on the show and if so, what is it? Happy Holidays to all, Lisa ~ Aunt Bea in Iowa ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Re: Digest Problems
I too was not receiving the digest and got the bounce message and had no idea what it meant. I did send Allen and e-mail and he was kind enough to respond to it. He explained that it was a problem that many of us were having and reminded me that I could keep up by reading the archives and that the problem was being worked on. I have been receiving the digest again and am so thrilled. I really missed all of you co-fans and feel at home again on Andy's front porch. I would really like to thank Allen for all his help in getting this problem fixed. It is very much appreciated and enjoyed by so many. Have a Mayberry kinda' Day All !!

Hello Everyone, I too have been fortunate enough to get a copy of the Make Room for Daddy's DVD that has the Pilot of TAGS on it. I personally love it and thought it looked real good. I am wondering something though. I believe it was around last week when there were links on here to some U-tube clips of the show and the one I loved was one of Andy having a talk with the gentleman who rented the lady (can't think of her name at the moment, but now she is our dear Aunt Bee) the suit that her husband got burried in, so he continued to charge her daily for the suit rental and that's why she was unable to pay her taxes for two years. I was disappointed that that clip was not in the pilot. So where is it? Does anyone know? Nice visiting on the porch a bit, Aunt Bea in Iowa ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
