What are you doing, Steve? Trying to make me feel old?!!?? ChittahChattah Quickies. Do you know about the CB radio fad from the 1970s? Yesterday I described the fad to two young designers - the lingo (linked here), the novelty song Convoy, the minor reappearance in the 90s as a way for Mexican families to call home. They knew nothing of any of this. . . [All This ChittahChattah] Oh, yes, I remember CB radio. Even had one in my old Volvo station wagon (My dad worked for  GE at the time, and they were practically  giving them away). Never really used it, though, found that I'd rather listen to music than people chattering away. 5:27:34 PM    Questions? Comments? Flames? []
