Vanity Plate of the Day – NAIMAN

NAIMANNAIMAN

This one was on the back of an Infinity SUV.  I could not see the driver.  I bring this up as I can think of two possible reasons for this plate.  One it could be someone’s name.  Secondly, it could be an Arabic word that is used after someone has a shave, haircut, shower, etc.  From what read it might loosely translate as “all cleaned up, looking good again.”

Vanity Plate for the Day – QD RX

QD RXQD-RX

This one was on the back of a Honda Accord.  QD is the medical abbreviation for every day.  And of course, RX is the abbreviation for a prescription. It was a young woman driving the vehicle so I am assuming a newly minted pharmacist.

Quote for the Day – Samuel Beckett

“Not one person in a hundred knows how to be silent and listen, no, nor even to conceive what such a thing means. Yet only then can you detect, beyond the fatuous clamour, the silence of which the universe is made.” ~~ from Molloy by Samuel Beckett

Vanity Plate for the Day – G8R-FAN

G8R-FANg8r fan

This one was on a Toyota Camry… Did not have a Florida tag, so I am guessing a transplant or they went to school at the University of Florida.   Of course that could be greater fan.  They are better than a lukewarm fan, and working on being the greatest fan???

Quote for the Day – Sinclair Lewis

“Carol herself was an uneasy and dodging agnostic.

When she ventured to Sunday School and heard the teachers droning that the genealogy of Shamsherai was a valuable ethical problem for children to think about; when she experimented with Wednesday prayer-meeting and listened to store-keeping elders giving their unvarying weekly testimony in primitive erotic symbols and such gory Chaldean phrases as “washed in the blood of the lamb” and “a vengeful God”; when Mrs. Bogart boasted that through his boyhood she had made Cy confess nightly upon the basis of the Ten Commandments; then Carol was dismayed to find the Christian religion, in America, in the twentieth century, as abnormal as Zoroastrianism—without the splendor. But when she went to church suppers and felt the friendliness, saw the gaiety with which the sisters served cold ham and scalloped potatoes; when Mrs. Champ Perry cried to her, on an afternoon call, “My dear, if you just knew how happy it makes you to come into abiding grace,” then Carol found the humanness behind the sanguinary and alien theology.” ~~ From Main Street by Sinclair Lewis.
