Wow!! That's as bad as someone leaving a message on your answering machine or voicemail.

If you have to use a walkie-talkie, at least use walkie-talkie talk. " It's over.The Eagle Has Crashed." or somesuch.

Delta Lima Tango, come in, over.

I read you Able Leader, over.

The old bird has flown, repeat, the old bird has flown, over.

Roger, Able Leader. Will return to base ETA fourteen hundred hours, over.

Roger, Delta Lima Tango, over and out.

Indeed. Folks do move through this world in their own unique ways, do they not?

Technology has dehumanized us in a way, if you really think about it. That said, I don't care if it's your 93 year old aunt or your neighbor's parakeet; that's not something you communicate over a walkie-talkie.

I'm with Andrea. That was just plain creepy. But Joe's right; that could have been much more entertaining with a little Airplane dialogue thrown in: "It's over, over." "Roger, Roger. What's our vector, Victor?"

That is weird. I also wonder if store employees with the headsets (GAP, etc.) have strange conversations about customers.

That is weird!

And I really am not a fan of those things. The other day, this woman was blocking the entire egg section as she chatted away with a man as to if he wanted the large BROWN eggs or WHITE eggs. Who gives a shit - move it!
