short answer is that that was my CB handle when CBs were big.

requires a long answer.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>My Dad's CB handle
was/is Coldwater Kid. He was born and raised in the Arizona desert in
a town called Coldwater which later changed its name to Avondale. I
thought it was a COOL handle. And his call sign was/is KDL2083. When
I was 9 to 13 years old in the 70s, he was a volunteer fireman/rescue squad
up in the mountains in central Arizona and got called a lot: day and
night. His CB was always tuned to channel 9 unless he was just wanting to
chat with one of his friends. I loved it when calls would come in and
there was a lot of action. I tried to memorize all of the 10 codes
they used, but I once made a mistake talking to one of my dad's partners that I
thought was VERY handsome and I was SO embarrassed. I can still feel the
heat on my neck when I think about it. I used the wrong 10
code and could have DIED right then and there. So whenever I think
about CBs, it is always bittersweet. I can't use the word
squelch in a sentence without remembering it was (for me anyway) a CB
knob.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>So... did you think this e-mail was
going to be all about me? NO WAY!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>1. Why is the B capitalized
and nothing else?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>2. Why was/is greenBubble
your CB handle?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>3. What were your call
letters/numbers?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>4. Do you still own your CB
radio?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>5. What is your real
name? (first only, please!)</FONT></DIV>
