Y3A I NO - I'm pretty sure the last part is "I know" but what is Y3A?

Googling Y3A gets me the Yomega Yo-Yo Association - If that's what you were trying to say, I'm quite surprised!

INNDEED - You own the deed to an inn?

Somehow I don't think that's the message you were trying for. :)  But why put "indeed" on a plate?

IBOTOXU - Saw this in the parking lot of a medical building recently.

I've been to that building several times recently and I'm willing to bet if I checked the building directory there's a plastic surgeon there. I'd say it's effective advertising for his or her business but there's no address on the car.

ACTR2BE - Actors aren't supposed to be modest, so I guess your advertisement is fitting

I'd expect to see bumper stickers on your car of all the plays or shows you've been in.

SWELL 1 - I'm glad you think you're swell but I also think swell jumped the shark in the 1940s...so you're just showing your age!

I suppose you could also be saying that you don't get seasick...

SECRET - I feel like this is a plate for a driver who is a very incompetent spy.

Make sure you don't share it with anyone!

4 MEE - Perhaps I should have gotten the car in the picture as well

I presume it was a fancy car if you're so proud that you bought it.

CUT2STYL - I'm getting a haircut brought to me today

Since I've been feeling like a shaggy sheepdog this is very exciting! Again, though, I think this plate would be better advertising if you had your business address on your car.

GOT TLNT - I've got talent

But what is it? Are you good at music? Can you draw? Are you a wizard?

CHARMSS - On bracelets, or you're advertising your own?

Because one seems juvenile and the other seems sleazy....

RUBADUB - From B. in Virginia, I'd never known there were so many versions of the nursery rhyme until I just looked online.

Rub-a-dub-dub,
Three men in a tub,
How does the ending go?

Reader submissions

Because it's always comforting to know someone out there is reading your blog, Sundays will be reader submission day.

I received a couple of plates from B down in Virginia. I like to think that these are people advertising for their hobbies, although I suppose the second could be a career as well:
