I'm so old I Remember when:

[kikiruru]

Did any of you watch the Andy Griffith Show? I came across it a few months ago and liked it a lot - but I’ve only watched a few episodes.

Deputy Barney Fife was hysterical

Absolutely! And a friend had a cockatiel who would whistle. The theme song when the show came on

 

[Ponypoor]

I remember
Prank calls
Calling the grocery store and asking something like “do y’all have any pigs feet?” When they said yes we would say something like “you better watch out here they come running!” And laughing while we would hang up the phone

Or this one with plumbers “is your water running?” If so you better go catch it!

Ya we were naughty kids.

Ya we were naughty kids.

I heard that one "is your fridge running."

Of course there's always the perennial "Do you have Prince Albert in a can? Better let him out!"

HUGE Andy Griffith Show fan here. HUGE. We have a 24/7 Andy Griffith Show channel and play it all the time. Even went to "Mayberry" Mount Airy NC on vacation last year

Anyone remember Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings? It’s a British-Canadian show maybe not in the US?

Oh! I must have seen that as a kid because I recognized the theme song immediately. I wonder if I saw it in Ireland or if it was maybe on PBS in the U.S.?

No matter how often we watch it, my cockatiel has never learned the song. He whistles all the time, just never "The Fishin Hole"

Oh no! There is something wrong with his ears! No seriously, he was a cute kid.

I don't know. It's been a really long time since I blew bubbles. I suspect they are plastic now.

For dyeing Easter eggs, not blowing bubbles.
