New Mayberry community

I did apply for membership, but now I'm wondering if they play cards and serve root beer! Don't want to get myself black balled! Peggy ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Barney's Purchase of the Motorcycle

I oftened wondered how Barney paid for that cycle too! I concluded that he told them to bill the sheriff's department - that way he could have returned it if Andy really got upset. Peggy ( who spent a lot of time under the bucket for this answer) Malfeasance Number 3#!

Opie's toys

I know he did want the chemistry set that makes bombs that smell like rotten eggs. The one Johnny Paul Jason had didn't do that. I think it came in a blue box. Peggy But Johnny Paul Jason ain't married! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com

Keepsakes

I always wanted Aunt Bee's Blue Willow china - and I finally got some. Reminds me of Mayberry every time I use the cups and saucers and dishes and serving bowls. It was pretty expensive though - maybe Aunt Bee inherited hers. Peggy It's not only the materialistic things that makes a person

Ken's duds

Ken - As Andy said to Barney - That outfit isn't exactly what you call inconspiciuous! Peggy To each his own, fella! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

A little bit conservative, are you?

All this negative talk about Facebook made me think of Barney getting frosted over the post office introducing stamp machines. Andy said, You don't like things to change, do you? and when Barney admitted that he didn't Andy said, a little bit conservative, are you? The spirit of Mayberry is

Name calling

I can think of a few! Barney called Gomer a whole bunch of names: Nutsy, Boob, dumb, third wheel I think Barn called Opie a pest Andy said the preacher was dry as dust Someone called Sue Grigsby a blonde right out of a bottle. I believe Andy and Barn agreed that God made two sexes - men and

Mistake

Well, remember the only lawyer in town took up selling aluminum siding, so maybe Andy just told them to send whatever they thought it was worth! Peggy I'll pass up these brilliant barristers of yours and be my own council! ___ WBMUTBB mailing

TAGS Quotes in Everyday Life

Favorite Quotes

Just what CAN you do with a grown woman? Oh you sillies, I can't do anything! Mother likes me to get plenty of oranges during flu season. I think it's pretty childish of Helen to tell Thelma Lou she's acting like a child. You know Andy didn't really care anything about that girl!

Fashion in Mayberry

I remember a few episodes where what someone was wearing - or not wearing - came up in conversation. Andy telling Helen to wear the green dress she looks so good in. Aunt Bee telling Opie to put a shirt on and not come to the table like a naked savage. Of course, Barney and the old salt and

Thelma Lou's last name

I think her last name was Gossage - just like her cousin Mary Grace who was probably the daughter of Thelma Lou's father's brother! Peggy I can't take any credit for it, my mind just works that way! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com

Meanderings from Peggy

To Orville - I don't think there was the sensitivity to physically-challenged people in the 60s as there is now. Notice that poor old Willis Cundiff was never even shown and when Goober was disabled they basically made the point that it was all in his head. I guess in this way our society has

It's preying on my mind...

Just recently moved and do not have cable yet, so I have been watching lots of TAG dvds and have some questions for trained noticers - or just those with an opinion. 1. Barney gets a check from Consolidated Oxidation for 27 cents. Why is his personal mail coming to the courthouse? 2. When

Materialism in Mayberry

I don't know, Ken - some possessions have brought a lot of joy to our Mayberry folks. For instance: 1. Barney's Andre Kostelanz marchers 2. Gomer and all his matchin' thangs 3. Aunt Bee's bed jacket 4. The magnets used on the map (instead of the pins that the ladies group tends to take) 5.

Andy's Book

Does anyone know why Andy's upcoming book has been postponed indefinitely? Is Andy okay? I've called Sarah to ask her, but she doesn't talk much about people. Peggy Gossiping is very rude! ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com

So Barney was right!

I wonder if they also have a car on display in the courtroom! PALMYRA, Pa. -- Palmyra police cited eight drivers on speeding charges Tuesday. Officers targeted a 25 mph zone from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. The speeds recorded ranged 35 to 40 mph. The effort was part of the department's participation

Singing in Color and Black White

The color song was their Alma Mater - Mayberry Union High! The BW was Sinners Lose All Their Guilty Stains and Spread a Little Sunshine for a while before Ben Weaver came storming in. Of course there was also the song they sang to Otis so he would think he died, One Vacant Chair. Peggy

Gustav Ken

H Gustav? Does our Ken have gypsy blood in him? He does seem to know a lot - maybe he has a big radio in his house! Does it rain a lot in Eau Claire? Or - could he be related to old Hugo Hopflash who shined the backs of his shoes? Oh no! Do you suppose he could be a foreign spy or

Quiet Sam - How did Barney get there?

Excellent observation - someone had the bucket on! There ISN'T a way that Barney could have gotten there - unless this happened around the time he had his motorcycle. Unless he borrowed Gomer's truck, but it seems like Gomer would have come along. Otis didn't have a car at the time and Floyd

Andy all fired up!

I believe that in the episode where Aunt Bee unwittingly worked for the counterfitters, as they were trying to get away, Andy grabbed Barney's gun and shot out their back tire. I also remember Andy threatening Gomer when he found a car in the courthouse, that he was going to take a gun off

History as a Hobby

Ken, I already knew about the Emancipation Proclamation - and I'm really surprised that you think I didn't know about it. However, I'm a little fuzzy on the Monroe Doctrine - didn't Calvin Coolidge write that? I also struggle a little with the Preamble to the Constitution - I just can't get

Salt on Watermelon

I grew up in Southern VA and was raised putting salt on watermelon. It wasn't until years later, when I became a Yankee, that I noticed people putting sugar on it instead. Just like the sugar they put in cornbread - yuk! I still use salt on watermelon and do not like supersweet cornbread!

Prisoner of Love - different perspective

I really think that Andy felt a connection to the prisoner beyond just the physical. I think he was headed back to talk to her to find out if she really was a jewel thief - he was always very fair-minded and maybe wanted to hear her side of the story. The fact that she seemed to enjoy the

Fishing Hole Soundtract and Knot Tieing Class

Thelma Lou's last name and Helen's leg hairs

Could Thelma Lou's last name be Gossage - like her cousin? Helen wore skirts and dresses (especially that green one that Andy liked) all the time. The chances of her having leg hair sufficient to pop through nylons is pretty slim. Now if we were talking about Jeff Pruitt's friend Bertha, that

Mr. Schwump's Soul Mate

I think the last we saw of Mr.Schwump was when he attended Mrs. Wiley's party (where Ernest T. was mistaken for someone from Back Bay, Boston). Since he availed himself of every social opportunity, he must have eventually found his soul mate. (I think he had a wild streak in him!) I'm

Violating copywright laws constitutes a clear case of falsifying, in my opinion. It's almost as bad as the government conducting business through a slot machine but not quite as bad as impersonating an officer of the law. Peggy That just frosted me!

I picture Sarah as a real skinny older lady who wears a different color shirtwaist to work every day. (maybe the pinch of snuff she takes occaisonally is an appetite supressant). Juanita, I think of as a blonde (right out of a bottle) with a little too much eye makeup - and not a lot

Severe Weather in Mayberry

I can only think of a few times when the weather really impacted the folks in Mayberry - can you think of more? 1 - When the storms were so severe that Barney agreed to go get them dogs! 2 - When it was so hot that Opie came to breakfast a naked savage - without a shirt 3 - When the drought

Mary Grace in Hooterville

Maybe Gomer gave her the boost she needed to pursue her dream of being a carpenter. OR - maybe she hooked up with the guy with the drinking problem and developed one herself and then gave up and became Ralph the carpenter. OR - maybe Ralph is Mary Grace's?black sheep?sister - you know, kind

TO instead of AT

There was a time when Jas ( for Jason? ) was teasing Barney about a hit and run - and when Barney got all excited and asked where - he said, Out to the baseball field! I always thought that was odd since I was raised in the South and never heard that before. Peggy Nobody pays attention

Average Looking in Mayberry

I think the funniest part of Barn's assessment of the women at the Wiley party is the fact that - I hate to say it - Barn isn't the best looking guy in Mayberry! Part of what makes him so funny is that he is blind to his own mistakes and shortcomings, but is ruthless in his criticism of

PETA and Aunt Bee

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Aunt Bee throw a pot out the window, presumably to hit a cat. I think that was out of character because she wasn't a cruel person ( except when she suggested decapitating Barney ) and she wouldn't waste a nice clay pot that way. I guess all the stress of

Andy's Hand

Hey - maybe Andy got called out to the Boone place again and Jenny threw a chicken at him and the beak injured his hand. Maybe he was back at the Tip Top and Skippy's friend Al?got into it with?him again. Maybe Andy and Barn were doing another pickle switch and he cut himself on a jar.

Andy's Hand

I have an idea of what really happened to Andy's hand. I think he and Barn went to visit Cousin Virgil at his new place and somehow Virgil knocked over something that fell on Andy's hand. Makes sense to me! Peggy Nothin' I like better than a good crab joke!

Events Not Shown

1. Charlene having her baby - and when they decided to name her Andalina! 2. Andy giving his Valedictorian address 3. Barney and the supposed wild times living at the Y in Raleigh 4. Aunt Bee in a beauty contest when she was younger 5. Barney and his mother on that bus trip to Raleigh 6.

Extravagances in Mayberry

Well, let's see: 1 - The Andre Costelanes special cymbols special ordered by Barn on the hope that he would get a spot in the town band - that was rather extravagant! 2 - Aunt Bee spending her whole paycheck when she worked at the printers. 3 - The blonde wig - a real extravagance considering

Economic Advice from Barn

If there was ever a person who could offer advice for our economic hardships today, it would be Barn. Can you think of all the cost cutting measures that Barn employed to watch his pennies pretty close? Here's some I thought of: 1. Not having the salad AND the shrimp cocktail at Morelli's. 2.

Opie alone? Where is the dump anyway?

Hey! I just watched the episode where Andy and Barney and Aunt Bee end up at the dump trying to find the second page of gossip from Opie's newsletter. Since I'm pretty sure Opie said goodnight and went to bed, does that mean that Aunt Bee left him alone to go to the dump? And since she didn't

There was the time that me and Andy and Barn and Thelma Lou went out to Finnegan Flats - I think that's what it was called - and skipped rocks and waded in the lake. Barney was a little shy at first about baring his feet in front of me and Thelma Lou, but Andy told him both of us had brothers!

Ryan O'Neill and Spinstering it

Yes, I was married to Ryan but that was before I moved to Mayberry and graduated from nursing school. I try to keep that quiet so as not to intimidate potential suitors even more than my new car does already. Hey, Mrs. Anderson - did you leave your heels right in the middle of the livingroom

Lydia

I believe that Thelma Lou commented that Lydia worked in Mt Pilot - not lived there. When Goober was dating her and bringing her candy, wasn't her house - site of their half hour date - in Mayberry? Peggy Goober, you're on a date - you're not taking medicine!

Mayberry Expressions

MIssing Person Alert

During the episode where Briscoe kidnaps Aunt Bee, she recites her beautiful rose poetry. I believe Andy coaxes her into it, by recalling that she and Aint Florence used to do a recitation in duet. Well, who and where is Aint Florence? We know Aint Nora but what has happened to Florence? No

Wow, Ken! It looks like your father definitely did not believe in mollycoddling! I have even more regard for you now since you had to overcome incredible odds just to survive! ( kind of like the Mayberry band) Peggy You're my son and I'm proud of you just for that!

No anachronisms in Mayberry

I know that there were still party lines in the 60s - my grandmother in Virginia had one. You had to listen for your specific ring. When you made a call you did not need seven digits. Also - side shows like Colonel Harvey are all over the place - have you been to New York City lately? Peggy
