    You don't remember the episode, early in the series (maybe even the very first episode?),where she came to live with Andy and Opie? She wasn't from Mayberry. She moved there to help take care of Andy and Opie, because Opie's Ma, whom we never met, had died. Took Opie a bit to warm up to her, but by the end of that episode, she had won him over. Good Lord, I just realized something. I REALLY need a life! How do I remember all this meaningless stuff?

    Ya been into the old Bob's Best a little early today, Beekeep? On second thought, maybe there is something more subliminal going on here! Now, mind you, I'm NOT a trained psychiatrist (although I have seen some episodes of Frazier!), but perhaps ........... maybe there is a side of you that, well, ........No, we probably shouldn't go there, should we?
