I remember my sibs saying that someone was a "clepto" if they took something that wasn't theirs and "let's get booking" when they needed to am-scray. If I had time to think of a few more, I would add them here, but I have make like a tree and leave. :)Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17852330284939615587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-60051617922113669172011-03-04T19:14:05.908-05:002011-03-04T19:14:05.908-05:00I was a new mom in the 70s, but I remember (almost...I was a new mom in the 70s, but I remember (almost) all of the expressions you used.

I also remember CB radios, my brother got one and we had a blast listening to reports of "Smokies" (police speed traps). An earlier form of Social Media perhaps?<br /><br />I also love 70's music, the Sirius 70's station is the first button on my car radio! I remember 8 tracks, streaking (never saw it and never participated, just heard reports) and platform shoes. <br /><br />My favorite word from the 70's? Funky!

I think we all relate to the music when we were 10, which is why I love listening to the '50's of 5 on Sirius satellite radio.KBeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02749986838867446338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-1768665234496445352011-03-04T16:31:38.637-05:002011-03-04T16:31:38.637-05:00I'm so glad you joined in today!

My new van came with a 3-month XM subscription and I discovered there's a '70s station.
