Out of state plates
« on: February 25, 2020, 05:59:05 PM »
Coming home from buying a new drum key, lost my original 30 year old one  :cry , I had to stop in front of local car rental place on corner for a red light and happen to glance at the out of state plates.
A little bell rang in the back of my coconut {or maybe a timbale triplet}, after seeing plates from Texas, New Jersey and Virginia.
Anything come to your mind?  :headscratch:


anything?   ;)




USS Texas, BB-35
USS New Jersey, BB-62
USS West Virginia, BB-48]

 :lol  That's what rang my bell.

Virginia ≠ West Virginia.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Probably illegals that just got their new driving licenses.

Hopefully they'll vote Republican after they illegally register to vote.

Obviously they will vote for those who support their criminal activity.

It sucks having plates from a state that only has a rear plate and driving in a state that requires both.

So many times, I've been pulled over after a cop's eagle eye has spotted that I have no front plate.

He drives past, pulls a U-turn, and then sees the florida plate.    Now that he's invested the time in turning around, he will surely pull you over.

I fixed that by buying a vanity plate for the front that is obviously a florida tag.

I use this one and haven't been pulled over for a year now when it happened once a month before.

Single plate for Delaware too so get a lot of the same. I double down on the silliness. Low digit tags are a thing here. I inherited a 4 digit. Here we can display a cool antique plain Jane black and white tag. So I had to get one. To everyone else it looks like a fake tag. Prob is a lot of them ARE fake! You have to get that tag from the DMV and they only allow certain numbers to be used. No glamor plates. Still see a lot of b/w oddball tags.

No, that's June 20th. The day when we were accepted into the Union as the 35th state. Montani Semper Liberi, friendo.
