Good question Ken If I remember correctly Mayor Stoner had a pocket watch that he watched very closely..was it when he expected the prisoner back?? Goober must not have had a clock because he was late minding the courthouse (I'll be there) Now Peggy was quite upset when Andy was late for a date, and she got mud splashed all over her. Clarence Earp counted on there being some kind of Time-keeping for his Duel with Andy at "High Noon" There were a few less pocket watches in town when the Guest of Honor, Mr Moody, was loose. Wasn't the bank safe set to open at a certain time? Gomer seemed oblivious to time when he was telling his Burdy Blush story..but when he was a candidate for the choir, he knew his scedule by heart and rattled it off for Mr. Masters. I'll keep the bucket on..these are time refernces..but true "not alot of clocks". The Untrained Voice you don't want a clock in Church, because then noone will be clock watching when the sermon is as dry as dust. _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
