    I suspect it happened this way..
    "I just saw Ann Cobb come over the Bridge like the devil himself was after her"!
    "Which Bridge?"

    There's a train bridge in my town that some hero from the past spray painted "Chucky Bigballs" on. It's the Chucky Bigballs bridge now.

    Because it definitely is going to originate with someone who saw Ann cross the bridge, did a chore, looked up and Ann was crossing the bridge the other way, and then told said person that she had gone into town, and they couldn't believe it because their perception of time was off.

    This is another story my mother and I got a chuckle out of. I feel sorry for poor Ann Cobb though as she was vilified for riding her horse fast.....

    When I was growing up in California, we had a cinder block wall (that was somebody's back fence). It was tradition to put your used chewing gum on....'the gum wall.' It was also bad luck to be pushed into the gum wall.

    Amazing. As always. The stark contrast between our big brain's capacity for logic and our brain's equal capacity for paranoid, animalistic thinking is also amazing. Thank you for telling the kind of stories no one else is.

    Mix together religion, misogyny, and then throw in a pinch of uneducated doofiness, and you get 'Murica.
