Grr. Danged rubberneckers.
And danged comment spammers, too. Came in this morning expecting the usual 4 or 5 overnight comments, and had nearly 40, all spam. Does this really work, spam people? I mean, I understand the volume idea--if only .001% of the 50,000,000 messages you send out get a bite, that's pretty good. But isn't there an easier, more pleasant way to steal from people?
Anyway, in a minute, I am going to say some more bad things, this time about the fair citizens of Ohio. Or rather, their license plates.

Once you start with Ohio, you simply must continue with, oh, say Michigan. Or Missouri. And how about Wisconsin? And *shudder* Canada. Tennessee, even, much as I hate to say it.
Mark my words, there'll be no end to it.
Posted by: James, LOPM at September 9, 2005 09:59 AMTennessee's plate makes it really hard to read the middle two letters, but at least we don't have a happy smiley sun face like Kentucky.
Alaska's old yellow plate with the Dipper on it and Arizona's old maroon plate with a saguaro are my favorites. I hate that states have to go changing their plates all the time. Hmph.

Spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spammity spam, wonderful spam.
You may now continue.

Posted by: Terry Oglesby at September 9, 2005 10:54 AMIf I had some of you guys' Photoshop skills, I'd simply create a license plate that shows a can of SPAM on it--thus combining two major issues into one. It could be a plate for, oh, who knows? DC?
Posted by: Stan at September 9, 2005 11:22 AMWell, Stan, you could start with this.
Or for those who are opposed, this.
Posted by: Terry Oglesby at September 9, 2005 11:36 AMHey Terry, those tags are pretty cool. I'd pick the SPAM H8R one myself. I might have known someone would have already thought of that.
Posted by: Stan at September 9, 2005 11:51 AMOh, come now, Stan--it's only chopped pork shoulder and ham. It's very tasty and nutritious! And it even comes with gelatin!
