kross921 Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 Wow! Its a trip to even discuss about it.My first one was in 87 or 88 and cell phone those days were so huge you can knock someone out and damn thing still works.What about when the Motorola express came out and you can leave a message or code where to meet. Let see if I remember a few:1: 17 31707 1 (If u read it upside down supposed to read I love u)2: 1 177155 17: I miss u3: 90 2 .....( Go to whateva st. u usually hangout)4: 911 ( everyone knows .. stupid emergency but if you had a girlfriend every phone call she would make is an emergency..lol)forgot the rest... wow seriously, what memories...
