CB Radio Call for Montgomery, AL. This comes from the monkeys on the island at Oak Park in Midtown. Once they had an escape. After the escape, the city was hailed as Monkeytown by all the truckers. This is around the same time that Birmingham was Smoke City before Iron City.
Toes on some peoples feet that are extremely long and narrow, sometimes with large bulky knuckles. Much like that of monkeys, who can actually use their feet like hands to pick things up.
Check out my boyfriends monkeytoes. He can spell his name with his feet.
The story is that truckers call Montgomery, AL "Monkey Town" because of a story about escaped monkeys from the local zoo. The story is that all the monkeys escaped and ran a muck through the city. This is not true. One monkey named Sonny did escape in 1955 and was captured a few days later. Also in 1955, five Rhesus monkeys escaped in Birmingham and they did run through town. Montgomery may be called Monkey Town based on that false story but that has not been proven.

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
