I don't get on here very often and I don't claim to be a top notch "Trained Noticer."But what I discovered yesterday may be the mother lode of Notices.I was watching my DVD episode of "The Jinx"...where Barney claims Henry Bennettwill ruin the fishing contest if he goes with Andy and Barney. In the episode barneyrecites three supposedly good luck chants. "Come fish come, come fish come, Sam's at the gate with a frosted cake, Come fish come" "Fly away buzzard, fly away crow, way down south where the winds don't blowRub your nose and give two winks, and save us from this awful jinx" "Wink'um Pink'um, nodamus rex, protect us all from the man with the hex." Now knowing Barney he wasn't superstitious, just cautious. But I think if we reallystudy these chants we can see it wasn't Henry Bennett being a jinx but barney's chantsthat sunk Andy's boat. Notice the first chant it has 13 four letter word...13=an unlucky numberNotice the second chant it also has 13 four letter words...13=an unlucky numberNotice the third chant it has 13 words...13= an unlucky number So it wasn't the jinx of Henry Bennett that sunk Andy's boat it was the three (un)luckychants by Barney Fife. I just thought you ought to know.... Vic Friskey _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
