Zandin:
I just can't understand the Angus hate on this forum right now. She asked him questions, he had a plan, one that DID include her. He knew she didn't want to move to the city, so he didn't even ask. Faye immediately gets aggressive, and then refuses to talk when he tries to take it seriously. Sorry, but dream career obviously wins over the girl you've been seeing for a couple months. especially if she isn't supportive. I know the forum has had over a decade to get to know Faye, but to defend her here is ridiculous when she is obviously the one with issues she refuses to deal with. I'm gonna be really disappointed in Jeph if he only plays the "Angus is an ass" card.

It's just silly and upbeat and wholesome. Totally what I'd be whistling as I strode down Main St. NoHo after making first kisses with a gal I fancy.

Trivia: It actually has a name. "The Fishin' Hole."

And words. 


--- Quote from: http://www.lyricsondemand.com/tvthemes/theandygriffithshowlyrics.html ---Well, now, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at The Fishin' Hole,
We may not get a bite all day, but don't you rush away.

What a great place to rest your bones and mighty fine for skippin' stones,
You'll feel fresh as a lemonade, a-settin' in the shade.

Whether it's hot, whether it's cool, oh what a spot for whistlin' like a fool.

What a fine day to take a stroll and wander by The Fishin' Hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

We'll have no need to call the roll when we get to The Fishin' Hole,
There'll be you, me, and Old Dog Trey, to doodle time away.

If we don't hook a perch or bass, we'll cool our toes in dewy grass,
Or else pull up a weed to chaw, and maybe set and jaw.

Hangin' around, takin' our ease, watchin' that hound a-scratchin' at his fleas.

Come on, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at The Fishin' Hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

--- Quote from: BenRG on 20 Oct 2014, 08:56 ---Well, it's more his "I've got a girl and I'm happy" walk, more than anything else. Either way,  I really want to know what happened between the pancake breakfast and Marten entering Coffee of Doom some time after 5pm!

--- End quote ---

It's not after 5 yet, that's when Faye gets off work. 
--- End quote ---

Incorrect, Faye's shift today started at 5pm. Agreed that she's still on the clock but it's late afternoon/early evening right now. Marten has likely spent the entire day with Claire, unless she had work and he was on his day off. I'm thinking it's the former, given the walk.

Carl-E:
Ooops... I'm gonna blame it on old(er) age...

Andy Griffith was an early "country" star before getting into TV and movies, this is off one of his records.  The TV theme was taken from the whistling breaks in the middle and end of the song.

I don't think it's as simple as Krald puts it, but I think you're maybe oversimplifying too. Sure, it's not WRONG to date someone a friend used to date, but I think it's reasonable to say that by doing so, you're basically saying "I'm willing to risk your comfort and our friendship in order to be with this person." It basically prioritizes the romantic relationship over the friendship one.

But there are so many factors. How long were they together? How serious was it? What was the nature of the breakup? Who dumped whom? Is your friend basically over it and getting back out there, or drowning him/herself in whisky and listening to The Cure every night?

All i was stating was it was pretty douchy for her to leap on dora the moment she was free, mostly since it was a Dora freak out break up, not  hey this just isnt working out, despite marten saying it was a joint decision it really was not. Never said she couldn't date her, just let the poor guy who got kicked out of the relationship not see one of his friends all over his ex within like, weeks.

That's pretty much how Dora/Marten got started, no? As soon as the path was clear, she jumped on it
