Surely, Paul Potts will get an “Michigander” Opera award for that. His name will live on as the greatest operatic disser of all time.

Hey abb (who continues to keep us up on the Duke news) — My sources up here tell me that the deal that was supposed to be announced at 5 this evening was postponed until tomorrow morning because Kwame didn’t have his tooth brush with him. Ms. Worthy wanted to put him behind bars tonight.

The Free Press is saying that the deal will be announced tomorrow at 9 if Kwame agrees to jail time and that’s what’s being negotiated now.

(during his talk to Opie and the town boys, Barney accidentally locks himself in the cell; the boys leave)
Andy: Well, got yourself a little incarcerated, didn’t you?
Barney: (annoyed) Get the key.
Andy: No more carefree hours; no more doin’ what you want to when you want to; no more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
Barney: Get the key.
Andy: I tell you what we’ll do in your case, though. If you’re good – if you’re VERY good – we’ll toss some peanuts in your cell and you can jump up and down on ‘em and make your own peanut butter.
Barney: Are you gonna get the key.
Andy: Hmm?
Barney: Open this door!
Andy: Oh, you figure you’ve paid your debt to society. Oh, alright, we’ll, uh, we’ll let you out. (opens cell) Alright, you can go. But remember: it is definitely NO FUN when that iron door clangs shut on you.
Barney: (irritated; storms out) You belong in the funny papers, you know that. Get you a wig and a dress and you’re another Emmy Schmaltz! (edit)

abb, how you thought of Mayberry at a time like this is a sign -— well, I don’t know what it’s a sign of, but it’s gotta be something.
