No photo, unfortunately, but I had a report of a Chevy Blazer with the plate 1HOT1 and a bumper sticker that said Virginia Firefighter. That's a wonderful car for a firefighter to drive!

It's WorldCon

WorldCon is being held in Denver this year. Here are the geeky plates I've seen:



BOBA FET - The meaning comes through clearly.




FIAWOL - Fandom is a way of life.



FILK (New Hampshire) - SF/F music



FILK (Virginia) - Not just listened to in NH




VAMPIRE - Frankly, I'm not sure blatant advertising is a good way to avoid getting staked...

Who are you related to?

EDITHMOM - Did Edith push you to get the plate?



AUNTSO - Sophie? Or Aunt So What?



UNCLPETE - Guess you've got siblings then.



UNCLELEO - Wonder if you're related to PETE?



AUNTEEM - Auntie EM - if this is your real name, I'm sorry, but I can't hear this name without thinking about the Wizard of Oz.

I bought this car ....

4 PHIL - He's a lucky guy.


If you check out the larger picture, you'll see:


4MAGGIO

and



4MAGGIO2 - Maggio's a lucky duck.




4MIBOYZ - And they're grateful, I hope!

Random names and initals

It's that time again...time for the "My ego is so small I had to put my name on my car" game:



AMYNGRLS - D'you suppose the girls are her kids, her relatives, or random females she knows?



AMYNMIKE - Hope the relationship lasts, guys!



BOBKAT 4 - The cynical part of me wonders if this is the fourth marriage.



BRITANI - I bet she draws a heart over the final I.


This guy's got it bad:


AMIR 1 - In case you missed the plate and the decals, this guy's name is AMIR.

I only made it from A-C today! Names on plates: a popular category.

More photos from my trip

RAMZ&I - I'm betting Ramz is a dog's name.



TILL - Your name, or are you looking for one to steal from?



TR BLU - True blue? But a bad speller?



VRNON37 - Where are your other 36 trucks?



VS SA - I have no idea.



IM USA - But since you've got the plate, none of the rest of us can be!



MEOW44 - Another pet lover. Why 44 meows?



NAKOSY - No idea again. A name?



ONEOIL - This was on a firefighter's truck. He asked me why I was photographing it, so I told him. He was about to change plates, though, so he's probably got something new by now.



OSHUNS - I like the tagline "Keep the lights shining". But again with the spelling issues, guys. And wouldn't this be hysterical if it was on the plate for a landlocked state?

Still on vacation, now in DC/Virginia

FN4SUN - Frankly, I'd expect to see this on a Florida plate.



MY2TRS - My tutors?




IAM4GVN - I am forgiven for buying a bug? But they're cute!



ALOHA VA - Either entering or leaving the state.



1PENFAN - So why aren't you living in PA?



CAT PSSR - I really, really don't want to guess.....



CELT BUG - If it's Celtic, shouldn't it be green?



GAZPACH - ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo




HALCYON - either a kingfisher, or a peaceful, golden age. I sure hope it's the kingfisher meaning, cuz I'd have to disagree with the other!



[HEART] LOBSTR - Apparently you do!

On vacation in Georgia

Seen in or around Atlanta, GA:

JOY2SNG - Someone in Georgia likes to belt it out.



AURATIO - Sounds like Horatio to me - or an aura? I don't know.



SMADSN - No idea what this is supposed to mean.

YLAYUP - Play up?

RD2 - Clearly someone who likes to ride bicycles.



FREEDOM - Georgia doesn't require front plates so people have fake plates on the front. This is one of them.



ALASKA - Another fake front plate.

ESR - Sports reference?



KENYA 92 - Someone went to Kenya in 1992? Or came to the US from Kenya in 1992?

RUSH 2 - Where are you rushing to? Or did you like Rush Hour 2?



YAMUNA 2 - Your money too?



WYNTER7 - Seventh winter of your life?

SCHMIDY - Going for Schmitty, maybe?
