Nothing came close to Jim singing "Back Home In Indiana" at the Indy 500.

Jim was a funny funny man! Him and Don Knotts were priceless together.

I'm always moved by his rendition of The Impossible Dream.

Godspeed Jim. You touched so many people.

That episode where the Marines are onboard ship, and they're all moaning in their racks from puking seasickness; all except Gomer, who's running around the compartment with a giant garlic cucumber pickle on a stick offering it to everyone in turn, saying "Grandma Pyle says garlic is an herb, and herbs is generally very good for ye ..."

I still use Grandma Pyle's trick of sprinkling just a little sugar on bacon while it's frying, to crisp it up ....

RIP, Jim.

I love the Andy Griffith Show. I still watch it on Netflix. I do some work as a court-appointed defense lawyer in a small town. The prosecutor, judge, and I work out unusual deals all the time just like they would do in Mayberry R.F.D. We get it done the old way, not like in the big city or country courts... I just wish I could sing like Jim.
