>>>It certainly has been quiet on the Digest for the past few days so I
thought I would attempt to generate some discussion with the following
question. "If you could go back to Mayberry in the 60's and go on a date
with anyone from Mayberry, who would you choose and where would you go?"
Well, my choice would be Millie Swanson. I have always had a weakness for
cute blondes. I would of course pick her up in my 1966 Chevy convertible.
I would definitely not take her anyplace expensive on a first date. I
would choose something simple yet fun so we could really get to know one
another. I would definitely not take her to a movie. On a first date,
that is the worse place to go because you do not get a chance to interact
and find out anything about each other. All you do is sit for several
hours and watch the screen. So I would probably invite Millie to go on a
nice picnic to Meyer's Lake. Nothing fancy, just some weenies to roast,
some potato salad, baked beans, lemonade, and something for dessert. We
could have a relaxing lunch where we could really talk about our likes and
dislikes. We could take a nice walk along the lake and perhaps skip some
stones and take a ride in a canoe if one were available. After the picnic
I would take Millie to Finnegan Flats to see Indian Rock and perhaps watch
some crows. If there was still time I would stop at Morelli's for pizza.
Then a nice slow drive home with the top down. I would walk her to the
door and tell her how much I enjoyed squiring her around for the day. Then
perhaps a nice gentle kiss on the cheek and I would be on my way. Probably
not the most exciting date by today's standards, but we must remember that
Mayberry is a quiet, simple place in a very different time. Now this of
course is all depending on whether or not Millie would even accept a date
with me.<<< - - - "Ken, you sly ol' dog you! Saving the duckpond for the second
date!" - For me, I'd ask out Lucy Matthews. Where we'd go? Prolly for
starters, up to Mt Pilot and to a chinese restaurant where we get parasols in
our rice dinners.
