vanity plate
« on: February 11, 2010, 01:30:00 AM »
...that's what they're called in the States...license plates on your car with whatever you want, if it's not already taken. Well, I've always had them - just one of the silly indulgences I allow myself. I had STVI RAY for a while; somebody stole the front plate, so I had to get something else. The car that got crunched in my wreck had MKGTR on the plate (got it off a notation on Chuck's mixer on the vid included in the Shangri-La CD). I've come up with some for my next vehicle, which I'm hoping to get in a month or so. If anybody has any other suggestions, I'm open. But I'm interested to see what people think of my choices. I'm only allowed 6 characters:

            TELE RD
            KNOFLR
            ALBION (my current favorite; "Sure as the sunrise, that's what they say about the Albion")
            GTLCKY
            MKGTR2
Whaddaya thnk?

Wow, I do like these, guys. Keep 'em coming. Arthur's right, though - I can only use 6 characters! Iowa is limited - California can have, I think, up to 8.

I bought a brand spanking new car today. 2010 plate, which i'll be driving out of the show room on Mar 1st ;D
I've been looking at personal plates for a while now, but all are too expensive.
I was on a site yesterday and saw one that was for sale for
And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles.

Sell the new car, buy an old used clunker and then you can afford the vanity plate.  ;)
