She.Is.Hot.In.The.Ass
It's the perfect personalized license plate for the Francophile. It's no longer available in California. But maybe you can still get it in your state. Get it past the censors by telling them it's the initials of your grandchildren, all except for that méchant little Marcel Duchamp.
P.S. There's an ass theme on my blog today (with some entries more subtle than others), and I hope you'll take the time to appreciate that fact. To be honest, it just happened that way, and then I ran with it. Of course, in a perfect world, I'd have the patience to wait and post it all on a Wednesday, but the donkey pun below is probably way beyond my groaner allotment as it goes.
Favorite personalized plates, both spotted in the first month in California, and both promising that the Golden State was really prepared to deliver the goods in terms of dream fulfillment and liberty--
An stylish blonde in a sporty Mercedes: LOXOAU
And a smirky guy in a Corvair: H8NADR

Actually, my favorite I saw on the road was an 80s model jag with a bunch of Indians in it (wearing turbans) and the plate GURU2.

When I was in grad school (the first time!) in Milwaukee there was a gay guy that lived in the apartment above me. First time I saw his license plate I thought he was just another Pollock, advertising what I thought was probably his last name -- "eye-use-key" was how I pronounced it. There were lots of Pollocks in Milwaukee.
Then someone pointed out to me that, no, that's not his last name he's advertising, look more closely: IUSEKY
Ick.

Amy, are you going to explain it to the idiots among us (i.e., me)?
rebecca at December 28, 2004 12:41 AM
Ah hah! You did not click on the link. All explained there. The initials, when spoken in French (pronounced as French alphabet letters), are Elle (she) a (has) chaud (hot) au (in the) cul (ass)!

Oh, PS the French sometimes use "had" or "make" or "made" where we'd use "do" or "is." Vous faites vos devoirs. You do your homework. Etcetera.

A hot ass is made.

Eric agrees: Ass Day was instructive and ennobling for everyone!
So when's 'tits' day? Sometime in February, ain't it?
Shush, Lena.
> You do your homework. Etcetera.
Amy, would you give a rat's ass for fois gras if you weren't from Detroit?
Cridland at December 29, 2004 2:50 AM
I thought there was a tits day a while back. August, maybe. For me, it's always tits day -- especially because with my size, I'll be paying off these bras for the rest of my life.

Yeah but does growing up in Motor City make you want to get back to your roots on the continent, or are you just trying to get away from Bob Segar and Kool & the Gang?
Cridland at December 29, 2004 2:56 PM
No, it makes me want to stay away from the Motor City. I do, however, love Kool and The Gang and all such music; then again, I like Julie Andrews, so you can hate me for that, first.
