Travelogue

feeds@yuku.com (Lin) — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 09:03:52 GMT

I thought as I'm thinking more about summer travel and open to any and all suggestions for now and the future, it might be an interesting topic to bandy about Floyd's whilst waitin' to get a haircut or ...something they call a facial

The Barber's Lesson

feeds@yuku.com (Kathryncac) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 22:28:46 GMT

I know we usually post inspirational messages at All Soul's Church, and you are welcome to repost this over there, but it just seemed appropriate for this forum.

Andy Taylor strolled into Floyd's barbershop to have his hair cut one day. As Floyd started getting the sheriff settled in the chair for his trim, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about many things and touched on various subjects like the...

Happy Father's Day!

feeds@yuku.com (Kathryncac) — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 14:25:33 GMT

I hope everyone is having a nice Father's Day. I want to thank Bear for the lovely Father's Day art she created for us. Andy and Opie do make a great example and image for Father's Day.

I think several of us are without our fathers, so my personal thoughts are always very nostalgic on Father's Day. Here are a few of my own Father's Day links. Feel free to share...

Nostalgia

feeds@yuku.com (Kim) — Mon, 11 May 2009 12:54:45 GMT
Today out of the blue I got a sudden stab of nostalgia wash over me. I've always liked old fashioned stuff, like TAGS and movies and antiques, etc. so I sorta feel like I live in nostalgia. Anyway, I had the wish in my heart that I could go to my Grandparent's old house and they'd be there. Too bad I couldn't have filmed them and rewatched happy times the way we can with TAGS.

Today is Odd Day!

A holiday many of us celebrate frequently, but today it's official so go out there and be odd!

In Honor Of Mothers Of All Kinds

feeds@yuku.com (Kim) — Tue, 05 May 2009 12:17:02 GMT
My mother taught me about the food groups: "If you put one foot outside that door, you're not getting any homemade bread."

My mother taught me contortions: "Have you seen the dirt on the back of your neck?"

My mother taught me to stand firm: "You'll sit there till all that spinach is finished."

My mother taught me about weather: "Looks as if a tornado swept through your room."

Sweet Romeena..duck soup.

feeds@yuku.com (Barber) — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 08:03:23 GMT
There isn't any sense in this but you will find Ernest T. Bass's sweet romeena as a passenger going onboard a flight utility spacecraft in the Twilight Zone episode 'To Serve Man'. Near the end of the show she is one of the fly-by-nighters waiting in line in front of the saucer to be weighed on the weighing scale along with her husband (who's doing all the talking). Poor Romeena along with the rest of the passengers is about to become an ingredient in the visiting...

Remembering America's Favorite Deputy - Don Knotts

Since tomorrow, February 24, is the anniversary of Don Knott's passing, I thought I would post this:

Current Events - General Discussions about Anything in the News

feeds@yuku.com (Kathryncac) — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 13:17:54 GMT
I thought we might want another thread to talk about things going on in the world today - good and bad. We have the City Council for Politics, which I think has been a good place for that, but if you read something or hear it on the news, this is the place to dish!

Mayberry Beautification

feeds@yuku.com (Kathryncac) — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 00:36:22 GMT
In that episode where the TV crew wants to shoot in Mayberry, and the townspeople go berserk trying to fix up the town, was there a committee or chairman or any official-sounding name? I am trying to think up a good title for Bear, who designs our holiday themes, and I wanted to try to take it from Mayberry. Any ideas? Even other programs from TAGS if there are any suitable expressions I can use...

Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day

feeds@yuku.com (Kim) — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 13:42:24 GMT
I almost missed another "holiday"! Today is bubble wrap appreciation day and with the stress we've been having lately, I think it would be a good idea if we got to poppin!

National Pie Day

I just found out today is National Pie Day! I'm so excited, I think I'll celebrate all weekend! Every grab a slice and join in!

Calvin Coolidge & the Mayberry Thermometer!

Floyd Lawson: You know, everyone complains about the weather but nobody does anything about it. Calvin Coolidge said that.

This is thread is for weather reports - let us know what the weather is like in your part of Mayberry today!

It is COLD in Nashville -- 19º right now, and it is supposed to get down as low as 2º tonight! Brrrrr! Not a good time to be w/o heat. Thank goodness for plug-in...

Floyd's Photo Wall

feeds@yuku.com (Kathryncac) — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 14:02:19 GMT
If you guys have ever been to Floyd's Barbershop in Mount Airy, you know that Russell Hiatt, the resident "Floyd" there, puts photos up all over his shop of the people who have come by to visit him. Kim suggested we post some photos in the Thanksgiving thread, but I just thought it might be fun if we had an "official" place to post photos -- like this thread! I also suggest you post some baby pictures and current pictures, holiday photos, etc. in your home on Main...

Hi there

My grandfather had a barber shop. Right outside of the CBC studios. I would watch and fell in love with Robert Goulet's gorgeous blue eyes....

Yummmmy man.

I like the new holiday feeling here in Mayberry, very festive!

Here's a picture of me and some of my cousins about 40 years ago. Can you guess which one I am?
