I was amazed by that dirty car art also. Some people can make art out of anything.<BR/><BR/>V - The Hummer license plate was pretty funny, I agree. I'll have to check out platenuts, that sounds awesome! I love vanity plates too. <BR/><BR/>Jules - So far nothing on my car. I'm not sure what I'm going to put on it...except a Texas Toll Tag will for sure be going on soon, so I don't have to stop at toll booths.<BR/><BR/>Crazy Cath - Thanks for coming over!

I have a small one on my bumper that says "Wage Peace." I like the idealism of it. But the most useful sticker I have is the parking sticker for my college, which has a strong criminal justice program. That has gotten me out of multiple tickets--since just about everyone around here who can pull me over either graduated from Unity or knows someone who does.
