Francis was a Hollywood actress who resented the turn her life had taken by the time she landed the role of Aunt Bee. She was wrong. You were wrong in not asking me your question directly and giving the weasels of the forum an opportunity to pretend they had something to offer.

The bartender immediately notices the underage weasel. "Sir, you look extremely young. I can't serve you even a single beer." "Oh c'mon. You can't just slide me one?" "Can't and will not serve to anyone under age." "Fine. Well what other things do you have?" "Well for non-alcoholics I have tap water and bottled water, I have coffee, and I have pop. Which would you like?" "Pop," goes the weasel. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I always noticed was that there were very few paved roads. Most of the filming of Andy and Barney driving showed them on dirt roads. Reminded me of some of the hills around LA that I spent some time exploring back in the 60's. BTW, NC roads in the 60's were mostly paved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunt Bee must have visited North Carolina on her own. They were filmed around LA so that also splains why they looked familiar to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
