jail keys

Remember when cousin Virgil came to town and filed down the set of
jail keys?
That could explain the whereabouts of one set of keys.

I would most likely be arrested for buying preserves from the
Morrison sisters.  You know with their rehabilitation not being
complete, their preserves would probably be illegal.

extra

2010-10-10 Thread nita kuhns
I believe the extra Joseph Glenn asked about is Tom Jacobs.  He is Danny
Thomas' older brother. The way I
understand it, and I have reliable sources, I called Sarah and she said
Juanita over at the diner told her the man
that is usually with Nice Dress Nellie, sitting and standing with her at
public gatherings, dancing with her at the
class reunion, is Tom Jacobs.  Now, when he is holding the ladder for Otis,
he has a hat on, and I think it completely
changes his appearance, might be 2 different men, the other man being bald
and all.  Sarah also told me that
Nice Dress Nellie had appeared in some of the earlier Bob Newhart show.  I
haven't actually seen her in any of these
Bob Newhart shows yet.

I am still in the camp to identify Mr Schwump and Nice Dress Nellie.  They
need to finally be honored and recognized.

If you go to YouTube and type in schwump quickie, you will see Mr Schwump
in a small segment of  the 1945 Christmas
in Connecticut.

Hope y'all have a blessed day!

class of 1945

2010-10-07 Thread nita kuhns
I'm thinking Nice Dress Nellie is portrayed as being around Barney and
Andy's age.  She was at the reunion for the class of 1945.
She must have been a member of that class also.   She had on the cutest,
little pair of shoes, with about a 4 inch heel, and didn't
miss a beat, just kept on gliding around that dance floor.  I am glad she
never had to dance with Gomer or Goober.

One thing no one has mentioned is a billboard on a main highway in Calif
asking about Mr Schwump and Nice Dress Nellie's identity.
And if all fails, we can call Matlock!

Mr Schwump/Nice Dress Nellie

2010-09-30 Thread nita kuhns
I think launching an all out campaign to identify Mr Schwump and also Nice
Dress Nellie is a great idea.
What better way to spread a message, than the internet? Once a message gets
out on the internet, it spreads
like wildfire.  Someone could post pictures and write up an
explanation/story about what we are trying to accomplish.
 (It is hard to believe, but some people don't take an interest in TAGS
happenings), so an explantation would be needed.
 Each TAGS fan forwards the email and so on until it has circled the country
several times.  You know how many times you
get the same email over and over?  Mr Schwump and Nice Dress Nellie deserve
the recognition and respect
by being identified for who they really were.  And too, don't forget
facebook as a means for spreading our
message.
And for writing the story, who better than Ken Anderson has a way with words
and can put a good story together?
I will do my part by forwarding, forwarding and then forwarding the email
message:)

Christmas episode

2009-12-24 Thread nita kuhns
I would love to have had more TAGS Christmas episodes.  I have been
rolling over in my mind what I would have wanted in a Christmas
episode.  Maybe Andy telling The Night Before Christmas story or
better yet, reading or telling the Christmas story in Luke 2:1-20 in a
way that only Andy could do.  In trying to decide which of Andy’s
girlfriends would be in this episode, if it was Karen, Thelma Lou’s
cousin from Arkansas, she could win a Turkey for their Christmas meal
at the Turkey Shoot.  Peggy, the nurse wasn’t an option, because most
of us nurses have to work on Christmas. Helen would be one of my 2
options, so that they could have a Christmas program at school, with
Helen directing her classroom in what their roles would be.  Arnold,
Johnny Paul and Leon could have been the 3 wise men, with Opie playing
Joseph and Mary Scobie playing Mary and Andylina Walsh playing Baby
Jesus. And of course, the Darlings would have to come into town to
make for a festive celebration.  There could be a parade with the
Mayberry band leading it and Gomer and Goober would be driving Wally’s
service truck in the parade. A nativity scene at the old oak tree,
where the towns people at one time were going to cut down for the
Hollywood producer.  The Mayberry choir would be singing carols along
the streets in Mayberry and in order to eliminate Barney from the
singing, he would be playing Santa Claus and practicing his HO HO HO.
I haven’t actually got a story line, but y’all are so good at this,
please help me pull this story together.
Hope y’all have a Blessed Christmas

I watched the original sponsor spots and had forgotten all about them

In addition to the scene of Ben Weaver standing on the crate outside the
jail singing  Away in a Manger,  on the first episode where Aunt Bea is
leaving and Opie goes running out to the truck and cries and says he doesn't
want Aunt Bea to leave.  Opie asks Andy what will she do? She doesn't know
how to do anything, can't fish or play ball etc.  Those are the 2 scenes
that can always make me puddle up and cry.

Andy and Flora

2009-02-16 Thread nita kuhns
I read and cant remember in detail about Andy as a child fell off a
rope/swing back in his day of Mt. Airy. He landed flat on his back. He did
permanent damage to his back. What exactly happened IN his back I dont know.
But I was watching him in the episode where Flora has eyes for Andy and not
Goober. Their out in the woods. Flora supposedly hurts her ankle. Andy pics
her up and then bends over AGAIN with HER in his arms the 2cd time to pick
up his shotgun. Flora is a stocky gal if you remember. Evidently Andy has a
pretty good back.


It is a good thing Andy carried Flora out of those woods, because she was a
very busy girl.  She went on to being Goober's girl, then she came back
to the class reunion as Nettie Albright and proclaimed her love for Barney.

medical issues in Mayberry

2009-02-07 Thread nita kuhns
Well, that got me to thinking - even without the bucket. What?medical
issues?have there been in Mayberry?

I remember Andy telling someone to take down the Disease signs, but were
they actually sick?

Here's the medical issues I can remember:
1. Willis Cundiff - kicked in the head by a mule
2. Tillie - long teeth
3. Opie - tonsilitis
4. Goober - psychosomatic bank pain
5. Otis - alcoholism - but he knew enough to enjoy it
6. Clara Johnson - back injury trying to clean up bacon grease
7. Barney - low blood pressure
8. Sara - sprained ankle? ( whatever it was Andy told her to soak it in hot
water)
9. Virgil - ADD
10. Andy - black eye ( but he got his girl back)


Miss Emma (?) took to her sick bed, when Ellie Walker, the new lady druggist
wouldn't give her her pill that she always paid a dime for.  Miss Emma
didn't have a prescription.  Then she did develop a severe stomach ache
after eating all the food everyone brought to her while she was laid up.

Also, when the new doctor came to Mayberry, and Andy was jealous because he
thought the new doctor was trying to court Ellie Walker, the lady druggist.
Barney went to the doctor under the pretense of wanting a physical.  See
#7.   The blood pressure reading probably wasn't accurate though, because
the new doctor put the cuff on upside down.
