I found a news story about some reporter who tracked her down. That is how the question came up in my mind. When I was a kid I had no idea what they threw off the bridge, I just knew it was something bad. Now as an adult, I can understand it a little better. There are a few possibilities. I still think it is a wonderful song. She was sort of rapping, before rapping became a big deal. :)

Is it just me, or is the forum very slow today?

What was thrown off the bridge has been speculated about since the song came out: Ode to Billie Joe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Another interesting article: The Story Behind Bobbie Gentry's "Ode to Billie Joe"

She has pretty much disappeared for the last 35 years.

Good morning. :)

    I'm just wondering if there has been any taste shifts.
    I haven't ordered Shadow since the last bottle which I suspect wasn't Shadow was dry , bitter , and had a distinct maple aroma to it . It wasn't Huntsman ,don't know what it was , The HA was normal but as I said it's been a year since I ordered HA and longer than that on the Shadow . I remember Papaw had a similar experience with Shadow though .

    I remember that. Was wondering if that was a one off or is it still different. I'm recommending the two based on what I remember of them which was before you and Pops discovered a change.

    It was slow for me last night and most of today. Right now it seems to be faster. *knock on wood*

    I would have no problem ordering HA or recommending it but I'm leery of Shadow since then .

    the wifey decided to change the master password on the account ( phones, pads, hotspots) and forgot to tell me...
    but ...now everything is back to "normal"... :)

    Sounds pretty normal to me. Just remember, you are the one who never pays any attention to her. Or she told you and you forgot.
    I kinda have an idea of how that whole marriage thing works.

    Good Morning Army from Charlotte NC. Waiting to get unloaded, then it's homeward bound.

    Have a Safe and Blessed Day :)

    Mamaw can get your attention easily just by cooking. I can see why you love her cooking because when you're out on the road eating Beenie Weenies out of a can you're on the opposite end of the cuisine scale.

    Waking up for nap, driving all night for two successive nights can make you do things like that. Getting ready to set Mamaw's car up on ramps and do an oil change before she goes for annual inspection. That Taurus is 12 years old and has 160,000 + miles on it. She has gotten her monies worth, that's for sure.
