We're home! Y'all need to go on the Mayberry Cruise with us!

Well, almost. Jan and I are waiting in the Seattle airport on our flight to get back to WBMTUBB home base but I thought I would check in with your guys. I loved our Alaskan cruise but I missed my daily does of Mayberry here on the internet. Lucky for me, several folks that go with us on the Ma

Frank Cady

I spoke with Mr. Cady about 20 years when he moved to the Charbonneau golf community. He was a friendly, pleasant man to talk with who told me he turned down an offer to portray Mayberry's chief imbiber, but was glad to later do an episode with "Otis." Mr. Cady didn't want a lot of publicity; he sa

Another Mayberry moment

i am reading "The Presidents Club," an insightful look at the bond formed by former and current presidents. As I watched "Andy" episodes lately, it made me think of President Jimmy Carter, a southern man who has long served the nation and the world. Andy's intelligence, gentle humor and wacky frien

I'm no Howard Sprague

I did a comedy presentation at a local church Wednesday. Had a great turn out. Although I live in a small  town about the size of Mayberry I didn't opt to use any of Howard Sprague's ideas. A person could get sued today telling jokes about their neighbors. So I have a fictitious farm community f

RE: What's with Opie's shirt?

Back in the day it wasn't uncommon for a boy to have two pairs of pants and two shirts 1 set for play and 1 for dress, when school started back after summer plays clothes were passed down, dress clothes became play clothes and you got a new set of dress clothes. Very common in those days for a

Single Sightings

I have observed a few things in Mayberry that were shown only one time. In the episode "Mayberry Goes Hollywood", the Mayor tries to cut down the old oak tree. But that episode was the only time the old oak tree was ever seen. Same with the horse trough that Briscoe uses to fill his rad

RE: Digest Submissions

I don't know what is happening with my email responses. For about a year now when I respond the Digest blends my sentences together. For example: I copy a line from someone's post, preceed it with the usual bracket >, then hit return about 5 times leaving plenty of empty lines between the post
