It just dawned on me why Mayberry was so peaceful and quiet....nobody was married. Here are the single people that come to mind: Andy, Aunt Bea, Barney, Floyd, Howard, Goober, Gomer, Sam, Ernest T Bass, the Darlin family, Helen, Thelma Lou, Clara...
In fact, the only one married was Otis and he stayed drunk. Is there a lesson to be learned from this?
