Well, I was watching my Gomer dvds again today and had a deja vu moment. One of the episodes was about Sgt. Carter saving Gomer's life and Gomer driving him crazy doing things for him! Even more than this, they used the EXACT same scenario that Andy used on the TAGS episode on this same topic

That mean boy and Opie played a joke on Goober so he thought his dog could talk. That joke wasn't funny - it was rather mean-spirited, but I guess there was a good lesson in that episode. Lisa ___ WBMUTBB mailing
