Opie

For whatever reason, I stopped to watch Andy Griffith the other day...I think it was because the scene was one where Andy was scolding Opie for holding back money from the offering to buy something for his little girlfriend..."and you go to your room and think about this and don't expect any dessert and..." And after Aunt Bee scolded Andy, he invites Opie to the dinner table. Andy apologizes to Opie for being so harsh..."I suppose every now and then you can use your money to buy a girl flowers or popcorn at the movies...but" Opie says "no, Pa, I planned to buy her a new coat...her old one is getting old, she said her Pa didn't have the money for a new one." Made me smile.
