I’ve gotten a few days behind in reading my email, but let me answer a few 
questions from earlier this week. 
A: When Barney is talking to a girl on the phone and he says to her, “you wear 
your uniform, I’ll wear my uniform,” he is talking to Juanita, not Thelma Lou. 
I can’t at this moment recall which episode this is. 
2: Gomer does say that Barney has been “out with waitresses and even a 
registered nurse,” but this is no reason to conclude that Thelma Lou is a nurse 
or a waitress. Barney may have dated any number of girls that we never saw. 
We are never told what Thelma Lou does for a living. The only clue comes in the 
episode Man in the Middle, when Barney asks her “how’s everything at the 
office?” and she replies “I dropped everything at the office to come over and 
find out ...• and that’s when Helen comes in, and Thelma Lou says (twice) “I 
have to get back to the office.”  And she is never seen in any kind of uniform 
either. She is likely a secretary or receptionist but we just don’t know for 
sure.
c: Andy accidentally calls Goober “Gomer” in the episode Goober’s Contest. It 
happens on the sidewalk outside the courthouse right after Goober tells Floyd 
there is no $200 prize. Goober asks “What am I gonna do?” and Andy answers, “I 
don’t know Gomer, I just don’t know.”
