Ode to Billy Joe.

That was it.


That was the first thing I though of, but quickly discounted it, because I thought it had to do with the movie...... or is that Billy Jack!?!?!


Quite embarrised to see my name as a thread heading EEK!!!!

See.... that was about some young kung fu guy...... in my head.... he would have no reason to jump offa bridge. Time to put the drawers back in the file cabnets again I guess


So..... are you saying the when someone startes posting on the GB, they should feel silly and see thier name practicly up in lights?
 
And here's the REAL question.... Is it egotistical to subscribe to a thread that has your own name on it?

If you make an impression, someone will inevitably make a spotlight thread for you. Since I'm just not that friendly AND I have to go to fucking bed, it wont' be me. But someone will - be warned.

You must be an oldish fart too, if you remember all this stuff.
 
Ode to Billy Joe always reminds me of that Ted Kennedy incident on Chappaquidick. Must be the bridge.

Depends on what you mean by oldish. I have things in my head that most people a decade older that me wouldn't know about.

Great! Now on top of everything else, I gotta track down this song, so I know what the hell everyone's talking about.
 
It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and we walked back to the house to eat
And mama hollered at the back door "y'all remember to wipe your feet"
And then she said she got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
Today Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

Papa said to mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas
"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense, pass the biscuits, please"
"There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow"
Mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge
And now Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

And brother said he recollected when he and Tom and Billy Joe
Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show
And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night?
"I'll have another piece of apple pie, you know it just don't seem right"
"I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge"
"And now you tell me Billy Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"

Mama said to me "Child, what's happened to your appetite?"
"I've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way"
"He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge"
"And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge"

A year has come 'n' gone since we heard the news 'bout Billy Joe
Brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store in Tupelo
There was a virus going 'round, papa caught it and he died last Spring
And now mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything
And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge

Spotlight thread? Do I have to sing, or dance? Eeeeekk All over the place!

Bed? How silly..... I have to be up in four hours, but you don't see me wimping out, do you?

Well.... wait 2 minutes and you will see it :D
