This weekends episodes-questions...

[(Ted) Theodoric of York]

Barney was making fun of Opie and his friend getting the squidgets
after visiting the rimshaw place. Have you ever heard this term used
before? Also when Barney and Gomer enter the Rimshaw house Gomer says
Age before beauty. What does this mean? How could a competent
teacher as Miss Crump make such an error when she transcribed the
grades onto Opie's report card?
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

I'm thinking you're asking this with tongue in cheek, as it's a saying that's 
been around for more than 100 years! Meaning that an older person should be 
given precedence over a younger, who's presumed to be more beautiful. 

 How could a competent teacher as Miss Crump make such an error when she 
 transcribed the grades onto Opie's report card?

Not only that, but the question that occurs to me every time I watch that 
episode is why she calls Opie up in front of the entire class before class 
starts to inform him of her dreadful mistake. I mean, good grief, a little 
privacy would have been called for, in my opinion.
