>I did not see one of my favorites
Hey Bee, You know how that bucket can slip occaionally, especially if it's been
on someone else's head first.....just add to the list as you see fit and one
day you too can be quoted in Barney's Book of The Month Learning Club.
And speaking of coincidences like Opie's troup number 44 and the raffle number
44 - I've often wondered why there are so many people with the same names. In a
small town like Mayberry you'd assume you might run into more than one Mary (as
in the two nurses - one with a last name, one without) but the stranger names
are what throws me off: i.e. Malcolm (Tucker and Merriweather) and Juanita
(Beasley and Pike). Just how many Malcolms and Juanitas can there be in one
town? There was Nate Pike (Opie's philosophy friend we never see) and Mayor
Pike. What about the Romonas (Romona/Romeena Wiley - was she related to Mrs.
Wiley?) and Romona (without the tears that bespeak the heartache) at the
Reunion? There was also Ellen Brown and Dave Browne (I know - with an E), there
was Grisby and Frisby (close but very similar), Karen (Opie's girl friend) and
Karen (Thelma Lou's cousin), Andy's uncle Ollie and his cousin Ollie (Oliver
Gossage). How about others? These things are just sitting and congitating
under my bucket.
For those of you looking for Mayberry business names - Jim Clark's book "The
Andy Griffith Show" has a great Phone Directory of people and businesses. Has
anyone mentioned Jack's Bar and Grill as seen in Ernest T. joins the Army
episode when Barney breaks the glass pane for the courthouse? A bar in a dry
town! Wonder what causes that.
