Default Uh Breaker 1-9 this here is Rubber Duck, you got a copy on me Pig Pen?

So I watched 'Convoy' for the first time today. I bloody loved it. A great feel-good movie, that's so cheesy, its actually cool.

And heh, Ernest Borgnine as a bent cop. That seemed totally ridiculous after all the episodes of Airwolf I've watched

And it was one of the first times I've ever seen Kris Kristofferson young.

I've never seen the movie. Liked the song, though.

Ha ha when I first heard the song I thought it was about well WWII convoys, I was a kid (albeit a nerdy one who knew about WWII) and had also heard Johnny Horton's song about the Bismarck.

You missed out on the golden age of CB Radio KP. Granted you were still a dream back then.

Well you now seen the movie what next? A fleet of trucks coming down the M1 to give Gordon Brown a ear full, go for kid.

Man, Convoy brings up some old memories. Corny, but good mindless fun.
