The World's Ugliest License Plate Is Back ......
Actually, this is Number 2802 ... I fell asleep at the wheel this morning, and didn't check the post count - not that it matters much. The saying goes that everything old becomes new again. Why that may apply to bell bottoms, lava lamps and Rat Pack, Poker and cigars, it doesn't always mean that the coming back of something old is a good thing - like Herpes.
Case in Point. Many moons ago, New York State had the ugliest license plates around. Orange-Gold, with Blue lettering, it stuck out like a sore thumb, and policemen were the only ones who liked them, because it made reading your tag to give you a ticket easier. So, about 20 years ago, the went to white plates with the Empire State Building on it, then white with a blue trim on top. No one had any complaints, because white is a neutral color, and it matched almost any color car. Problem was, it now looked like South Carolina's current tag (minus the inexplicable Sedona Sunset), which looks like Michigan's tag, which looks like Illinois' tag.....you get the idea.
So, what do you do? You bring back the Ugly. Yep, they're back, and no one is happy about it. The picture above isn't a fair description of it's gaudiness, because Joe's Roush Mustang is the only color that actually does match it. Picture this on a black car, or a red car or green. It truly is abhorrent. It's like you escaped the monster in your childhood closet, and 30 years later, it jumps back out at you. On a side note, we may be coming back to SC fulltime just to avoid having to register the Avalon here - maybe when it cools off a bit.

Frankly, you my dear friend and skeptic do NOT have good taste, well, like most of the people living in this gentrified-infested, technologically warped modern-day world where people are so damn lazy and FAT! The Empire Gold plates...it is about time that we went back to the way things were in the good old 1970s where people were free, dressed much better, and when people only thought about having fun and not so overly anal about money, like nowadays. Long live bellbottoms and platform shoes, which happily abound my closet because that is all I wear. And as long as you keep hating, you will be condemned to repeat the past. For me, I am soooo happy that we are going back to the 70s, and if I had it my way, I would bring back Alexander's, Gimbels, May's, graffitti on the trains, rotary pay phones, and porono theaters along Times Square, as well as the beautiful color-coded street signs. So dig THAT to your grave bra! Peace out...
Dear President Carter,
As I can only think that you are the sole person who thought everything was better then, I'll assume it's you. Maybe you're Steve Miller. Anyway, I don't think everything from the 70's sucked - but the license plates were one of them. Working in the auto business for 11 years, I hear complaints from customers all the time who just spent $40-100,000+ , then have to attach a tag that doesn't match, unless your car is blue..
I did find the comment that my hating will condemn me to repeat the past, which is directly the opposite of the true statement that those who don't learn from the past... But I like your nostalgic side!
