Loved the art of Peter Max.

We got a great big convo truckin across the USA. Yikes CB's. When was the last time you saw anyone with a CB?
In addition to “Keep On Truckin'”, anyone remember some of the other Robert Crumb "underground" creations...

Oh yes. Wasn't Fritz (the movie) banned in several cities?

Yeah, Singapore. But they also banned Monty Python's Life of Brian
We had these on the farm, in all the vehicles, and in the houses. I can't quite remember all the call signs, but my grandparents house was Base 1, grandpa's pickup Mobile 1, we were Base 2/mobile 2, my uncle, Base 3/mobile 3. It was not unusual to hear, WRXK99, (I think this is right!) Base 2 to Base 1...Base 1...can we come over Grandma?
Good memories.
The last time I saw someone with a CB was in the 80s.
I imagine the only people who have them now probably live with their Grandmother, have no friends and smell of urine.
Oh, now there was a politically incorrect magazine. I still remember the fake ad.
I remember Legg's pantyhose came in these huge egg containers. My mother had a collection of those eggs and would break them out during Easter. The deal was if one got one those eggs, it came with money inside. Candy kind of paled in comparison with getting the Legg's eggs.
We used to ride around for hours with our skirts tucked into our undies!
I remember when shops didn't open on the weekends...I miss that!

Well this is rather intriguing. Please do tell more of this odd tradition.
Where we lived was hot so we would wear a skirt on our bikes, hard to pedal in a skirt so we would tuck them up into our undies, that way we could ride and not get our skirt caught in the spokes...does that make sense lolWell this is rather intriguing. Please do tell more of this odd tradition.
Okay that makes sense. For a minute there I thought it was some odd teenage Thelma and Louise convertible cruising down the highway type thing.

When I was a little girl, I begged begged my mom to take me to see Fritz the Cat. advertisements were on TV for it, and I thought it was a Disney movie. No one ever told me why they wouldn't take me.
Zoom to present day. By now I knew that Fritz was a naughty movie, but still hadn't see it until I got Netflix! First disc I ordered from them was Fritz the Cat so I could see what was so bad.
Uh yeah. Mom was right in not taking me.
Oh, my son LOVED the Toys R Us Christmas wish catalog. He was so serious, taking his time, hours and hours. Slowly he would circle ...maybe ten items. And eventually narrow his choices to two or three.
I miss that.
Peace.
