License Plates

A while back I was writing about quirks on my blog and stated that I probably didn't have any. My very disrespectful...I mean "WONDERFUL" children, mentioned a couple and I guess I do have one that I didn't think of at the time. Whenever I am driving or riding around and see a license plate with 3 letters on the right, I interpret the letters to stand for something, and in my mind it just automatically forms a phrase. These are not personalized plates....just the regular state issued ones. For instance:

This one stands for "Wayne underestimates Joan". Wayne had a different interpretation but it is not worth mentioning.

And this one is "Large Giant Attacks"..... A good newspaper headline.


I do it all the time without really thinking about it consciously. It's easy in Utah because most of the license plates have the 3 letter ending. Colett used to have the license plate YVV. I called it the Yarro vrooom vrooom car and I could always find it in the parking lot amongst the other 100 black suburbans. We also have a VDC in our family so it's easy to find too. Just look for the car that means very darn cute.

Now I have YOU thinking about it don't I? Nevada and Minnesota and a few other states also use the 3 letter endings on their plates.

What would you interpret these letters to mean? Leave a comment and let me know.
