Amusing plates

I've seen both LOV HED and LUV HED on CA. plates.

Best I heard about was FKSTNFRD. I was told it belonged to a Berkley prof who swore it meant Frankenstein's Ford instead of F**K Stanford.

Best plate I've ever seen was back in the early 90's on rt95 in Milford CT. A red C4 Vette went by in the left lane, moving pretty good, long blonde hair streaming out the targa top/window. CT plate was "WET YET" RT

For your enjoyment ... I particularly recommend the "a$$ orgy" story at the bottom. Priceless.

I think people who complain about these things need to get a life.

You get the same thing with the naming of race horses ... there are a few horse owners who try very hard to get things past the Jockey Club, and then there's always some whiner who thinks it's inappropriate and demands a name-change. Some of the good recent names have been Isitingood, Tulsy Tsan (Nasty Slut backwards), Hoofhearted (say it out loud), Bodacious Tatas, and perhaps the best of all, Sofacanfast.
