Who cares. I hate Twitter and dont do Facebook. I tried Twitter and think its ridiculous. But then I am old and not cool so there you go. I will stick with blogging whether I have one reader or two. Its allows me to unwind and better than a therapist.Lillynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-27056256871402257842011-09-03T12:59:12.296-05:002011-09-03T12:59:12.296-05:00No CB radio, for me!

FB is great for keeping in touch with friends and family, but I don't think it's an adequate replacement for a good old-fashioned blog.Jenehttp://theoriginalbean.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-40008574484668753722011-09-03T11:57:23.269-05:002011-09-03T11:57:23.269-05:00That's a good point.

But as you said, more FB or whatever will use up more online time.<br />thankslislemanhttp://afcsoac.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-78470324337534719242011-09-03T11:48:13.897-05:002011-09-03T11:48:13.897-05:00No CB memories here but your post made me laugh (a...No CB memories here but your post made me laugh (again).

We took two cars, my husband driving our old Ford 350 truck, sons in the back seat and my close friend and I driving our SUV w/ the dog in the back. My friend had been a DJ for years and he would talk to my husband in all these funny dialects, trucker talk and the like. I like to sing (terribly) and I picked up the speaker and started singing in my opera voice. We heard a voice come over the radio,<br /><br />"What the hell was THAT?"<br /><br />Those truckers did not know what they were listening to.CaliforniaGirl500http://www.womenofcertainage.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-5927660911971329132011-09-01T21:10:23.291-05:002011-09-01T21:10:23.291-05:00This post made me think of my Uncle who recently p...This post made me think of my Uncle who recently passed away. He was very into CB radio and he loved talking to his CB buddies. His death still breaks my heart because he was such an amazing guy. He adored me and always had nice things to say. He thought the world of my kids.
