So they are okay, and not what I would consider 'vanity plates'.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10121410794715290579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-78606051910302126022010-05-02T19:26:08.274-04:002010-05-02T19:26:08.274-04:00I have had vanity tags for a long time. original r...I have had vanity tags for a long time. original reason was to spot my husbands white van on the road. We worked together.It was a big help (do you know how many white vans there are?)<br />Then I started getting ones with my animals names on them (my favorite is the lighthouse ones). My cat was named "Bruce" but could only get "Brucie"! Had people pass me and yell "fagot"? No, I'm not!<br />The funniest was on a trip with my husband along near Boston. The toll collector said "Are you Brucie"? My construction "he man" said xllzy!<br />(not writing what he said, imagine) then from the back seat my two big black just groomed St. Poodles stuck their heads out the drivers window. Told my husband to just give up! :)Deloresnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-78455310930833917822010-04-24T11:36:14.556-04:002010-04-24T11:36:14.556-04:00Anon - sorry.

You're right - road trips back then were worlds away from the pampered trips today with all the audio/visual technology at our fingertips.<br /><br />I have to admit, I have a Margaritaville tag design that is also personalized -C Life.

I understand that some are for various causes, but those that aren't still cost extra every year. No thanks, I pay enough taxes to Richmond and Washington. I don't want them to waste more of my money on their bad legislation. [stepping off my soapbox]<br />BTW, your vote was too late. Mark insisted on instant gratification, and the votes occurred at work. He lost. ;-) You know how graciously I accepted the win.
