PERSONALIZED PLATES

Never had them before, but my wife had started calling our new car the ‘Silver Bullet’ without even knowing it had anything to do with OSU football. So when she suggested personalized plates I jumped at the chance. Had a heck of a time finding a permutation that was still available (even tried using AG). I also discovered that somebody actually has the license plate OH8CH.

In any case, the next time you are taligating somebody going 35 in a 65 check to see if it is the SIVER BLT. If I hear a horn honking I'll know it is someone from the planet.

But my real question (and driver for this thread) is – does anybody else have personalized plates? OSU themed?


PRIUSES (or is it Pri’i?)

The SIVR BLT is a Prius. The wife bought it while spending a few months with her sister in California. Blew away all my preconceptions about hybrids. Great ride, plenty of room (when I am in the back there is about 18” from my knees to the seat back), and it has plenty of pickup. When you are cruising with the gas engine and kick it the electric engine chimes in and you add another 30 odd HP. I have actually become a fan of passing on two lane roads again.

My biggest concern is the way the Smart Key works. I never have to take it out of my pocket. Just push the Power button and the car starts. Grab the door handle and as long as the key is in my pocket it unlocks. Really a great concept. Problem is that you could (and trust me I will) start the car, go back in the house for something you forgot, lay the key on the counter, drive 200 miles, turn off the car and find yourself stranded.

Funny looking I admit, but I am having a ball driving this car. Encourage anyone who is thinking about hybrids to give it a look.

Oh, and when we drove back from San Diego to CBus (mostly cruising around 80), we spent $161 on gas.


PENGUINS

Since I was on a role with the P’s thought I would keep it going. Cute little buggers, don’t you think? They are my grandsons favorite animal. Granted, ‘March of the Penguins’ was waaay overrated, but it’s not like they were doing the marketing. They just did their little wobbly thing and collected a slice of the profits. Can’t blame the penguins for having a good agent.

BTW, did you know there are 17 different kinds of penguins? There, just in case you aren’t interested in a hybrid you still learned something from this thread.


POONTANG

I figured as much. Did you even read ANY other part of this post before jumping down here?

Well, did you? If not you missed a lot of cool stuff about Penguins and Priuses.

Anyhow, as long as you’re here I might as well post the lyrics to “Oh Mister Mitchell”

Oh, oh, Mr. Mitchell, I'm crazy about your sweet poontang.
Oh, oh, Mr. Mitchell, I'll tell the world that it's a wang.
I like your (gooey parfait - ?) and your apple pie,
But when I get your poontang you will hear me cry:
Oh, oh, Mr. Mitchell, I'm crazy about your sweet poontang
Mr. Mitchell owned a sweet confectionery stand
Way down south in Loosiana.
Mr. Mitchell always had his pies and cake on hand
Served in a pleasing manner.
Miss Lindy Lou she tasted his brand new confection
Mr Mitchell called his sweet poontang.
And when Miss Lindy Lou with it made good connection
This is what she yelled before the gang.
Oh, oh, Mr. Mitchell, I'm crazy about your sweet poontang.
Oh, oh, Mr. Mitchell, it's got me going with a bang
Your cherry pie is juicy, so is your jelly roll
But when you give me poontang I just lose control
Oh, oh, Mr. Mitchell, I'm crazy about your sweet poontang
Give me lots of poontang
Please don't make me plead
Can't you see you've really got just what I need?
Oh, oh, Mr. Michell, I'm wild about your sweet poontang!
 
I read about the SIVER BLT (or SIVR BLT, there's a conflict), the trip to San Diego, the 17 kinds of penguins, POONTANG, and still noticed that the 'T' was missing from 'Mitchell' in the last line.

Anyway, those are the 'Observations from my La-Z-Boy'. :wink2:

SIVER BLT sounds great but it makes me hungry for both football and sammiches.

I fell in love with the Prius after one test drive. You're right, it really doesn't drive or feel anything like you would expect.

As for the smart key, I *think* it won't let you put it in drive if the key's not in the car. It definitely knows, because it beeps at you when you leave the car running and go somewhere with the key.

Personalized plates: Gay. You get a pass, however, if it is tOSU related.

Priuses: Also appear gay, but I've never been in one, only laughed at them from way up in my gas-guzzling Yukon. Guess the joke is on me.

Penguins: Any animal that has to dress up everywhere it goes can't be trusted. Plus, ever since I saw the second Batman movie, I'm convinced there are rogue penguins who try to steal orphans. They're sneaky little bastards.

Poontang: I'm married, no idea what you're talking about.
