Not on topic but the most suitable thread to post in... A Letter from an Arkansas mother to her Arkansas son: Dear Willie, I’m writing this real slow cause I know you can’t read very fast. We don’t live where we did when you left. Your daddy read in the paper that most accidents happen within twenty miles of home, so we moved. I won’t be able to send you the address because the last Arkansas family that lived here took the numbers off the house with them for their next house so they wouldn’t have to Change their address. This place has a washing machine. The first day I put four shirts in, pulled the chain and I ain’t seen them since. It only rained twice this week. Three days the first time and four days the second time. You know the coat you wanted me to send you? Well, Aunt Sue said it would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on it, so we cut them off and put them in the pockets. We got a letter from the funeral home today. They said if we don’t make the last payment on Grandma’s funeral bill, up she comes again. Your sister had a baby this morning. ain’t heard whether it’s a boy or girl, so I don’t know if you’re a uncle or an Aunt. Three of your friends went off the bridge in a pick-up. One was driving, the other two were in the back. The driver got out. He rolled the window down and swam to safety. The other two drowned. They couldn’t get the tailgate down. There’s not much news this time, nothing much has happened. With love. From mama.
