My wish list is short for 2011: 1. That Joe Gritton would write some script for Floyd and Bert Miller to perform on the Podcast. 2. That Allan Newsome goes on the TV show Wipeout as Floyd Lawson. Sorry #2, I just had that image in my mind and can't shake it. -Bob

Ken, Several episodes shot at the filling station showed an ad that was masked over. At the top, it said, Treat yourself to the best and the part at the bottom that was covered reads, Chew Mail Pouch Tobacco. I'm trying to remember, was there a thermometer between the top and bottom of that

May I suggest a Rule #3 to our board? Thou shall not have discussions about TV Land that have nothing to do with TAGS The bandwidth we've wasted over the years discussing what we don't like about TV Land must be pretty large. I think it adds clutter to this bulletin board and should be
