A third Floyd?

Please stop me if this has been covered before, but I thought I saw a fellow in a barber's smock sitting out in front of Floyd's who was neither our beloved Howard Mcnair, nor the first Floyd (who's name escapes me) in the the episode where Opie was sweet on Thelma Lou, did anyone else notice if

things don't make sense

2015-03-13 Thread Bruce Nail
forgot which episode this was, but the building accross the street from the Mayberry hotel had a sign painted in the window that read something like, Hotel, Bar and Restaurant. this struck me as odd for several reasons. first and foremost; a bar? I thought Mayberry was dry. secondly, hotel

Musings on why some things don't make sense

One thought on the some of the things not making sense, at least in terms of distance/time such as:the darling's distance from town (yet still being in the same county); Mt. Pilot's distance, and all the little Two-track roads leading in and out of Mayberry I think would make sense 30 years

Mayberry County Map

2015-03-01 Thread Bruce Nail
Is there a higher resolution copy of the Mayberry County map that's on the Imayberry page? ideally I'd like one that's suitable for framing, but for right now I'm trying to pin down various locations in the area, specifically the Darling property and the Robert E Lee Natural Bridge. *I doubt

Just finished the Darlings are coming when I noticed two things: first, the building directly behind the David Mendlebright Memorial Horse Trough has a nice set of double doors with heavy duty plate and door knobs, yet the door is secured with a padlock. What I figure is that ths was a complete

Whose Likeness would go up on Mt Mayberry

2015-02-24 Thread Bruce Nail
I was doing a little cyber doodling today and decided i would emblazon our venerable Mt. Rushmore with the Likenesses of four worthy Mayberryites. Before I share who got my vote, I thought I'd put it out to the collective on whom you feel belongs up there, and why. I'll say that, in trying to

In regards to things not making sense, and Opie's baseball fabrication. it seems these are common themes on the show. Malcolm pretending to get drunk so he'd be fired all to bring Aunt Bea back into action. and how about Andy and Ellie's fabrication of a burglar to boost Barney's morale. I've

Sand Pebbles Veterans on TAGS

Just finished watching the Sand Pebbles and was surprised at the number of TAGS alum! Of course Gavin McCloud was an obvious stand out, but I also spotted Barney Phillips [Eddie Brooke] (though I didn't know his name until I looked him up.) I'm ashamed to say that there were three more I found on

In response to Paul's Hymn posting, did anyone mention Man in a Hurry where Andy is singing Church in the Wildwood? I thought I read somewhere that was supposed to be Andy's favorite hymn. always enjoyed that song, and especially Andy's version on the front porch.

where is Route 6 and CP Chickey?

last night while watching Barney at check point Chickey I was surprised to see just how substantial Route 6 (IIRC) was. I''m used to those lonely stretches of dirt road where most of the out of town driving takes place but Rt 6 looks like it's off the 40 acre lot. is CP Chickey on the other
