State Route 138 Spur is a very short route, about one-half mile in length, in Jonesboro that connects S.R. 138 with U.S. 19, U.S. 41, S.R. 3, and S.R. 54 (Tara Boulevard). Until the early 1990s, it was part of S.R. 138 proper, which ran through downtown Jonesboro at the time. Around that time, a new bypass was built around the north side of the city. It initially received the designation 138 Spur; however, once the bypass was completed, the 138 and 138 Spur designations were swapped and the new 138 Spur truncated to Tara Boulevard on the west side of Jonesboro. Some street signs on the northern bypass, now the S.R. 138 mainline, still anachronistically refer to the road as "Spur 138".

“One does not realize the historical sensation as a re-experiencing, but as an understanding that is closely related to the understanding of music, or rather of the world by means of music.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
