Without much fanfare, more of the license plates that I have seen out on the road around here: * GODSND * SYSADM * YELOBUS (On the back of a bright yellow Xterra)
While driving home last Friday it seems that everyone had come down with “A Case of the Stupids”: 1. A car that had slowed down and gotten in the exit lane suddenly decided that it was the wrong exit and swerved back into the driving lane. Without checking to make sure that I wasn’t already […]
As I have spent more time in driving in the Northeast, driving in and around Boston, MA has become easier (though probably a little more frightening). The unfortunate facts are that the [Rules for Driving in Boston][1] which are found on many humor sites are actually true. I will need to start keeping my own […]
Perhaps compensating for something else, “BGJNSN” was seen the other day. Perhaps also about ten years too late. Proving that somethings never change, “WMNRUL” was seen going 45 in a 55 down a two lane road. And the awards for knowing who would be looking at their plates go to “UFREAK” and “UDRULN”
One of the most interesting things that I note about the drivers in New England is that the speed at which they go is irrespective of the Speed Limit. There are many drivers who always go 70 mph on the highway. In the 65 mph zone. When it drops to 55 mph. Even through the […]
Some license plates are cute, like “WNEPOOH” (to go with TI2GR). )Or the one that says “THANKU”. “URWLCM” Some just make me questions what they were thinking. Like “WLDTHNG” on a Volvo. Or “RATFINK”. Even if your nickname was “AMNDUH”, why would you put it on a license plate? I am still waiting for the […]
I got to take off early on what seemed like the first day of spring (March 26th) and drive though the urban sprawl up to the beautiful city of Manchester, NH. It was a nice day and the license plates seemed to come out in support: “RHEMI”, “+MYGUY”, “RM2PLA”, “DETAILR”, “-TRIP-” and “DNTBGME”. (The last […]
These Bumper Stickers I saw a while back were poignant (though they may or may not express my particular political beliefs): * GWB: The President Quayle We Never Had * Like a re-run of a bad movie: A Bush, A War, A Recession
I couldn’t make out “GNFLYN” until I realized that the license plat cover mentioned Hang Gliding. And I want to know what “GOOD HUE” is doing on a silver car. Isn’t that close enough to white, which is almost not a color?
I am currently starting to look for links which I hope can explain the methods behind the madness which New Hampshire residents drive. As an example: I can only assume that the intersection leaving my apartment complex is different than every other one in that the left turn has right of way over the right […]
