Despite the fact that I am into cycling and I'm very tacky about it (my mountain bike has a custom eye-searing, hot pink paint job with a glitter top coat), I thought I could let my novelty bicycle license plates see the recycling bucket.
Let's check these out.
I have never been to Nebraska, Missouri, Wyoming (I think the "Big Shot" is Wyoming, I already threw it out so I can't remember) or Arkansas. I do not know where these came from, nor do I have any particular attachment to Nebraska, Missouri, Wyoming or Arkansas. Also, I'm sorry for Arkansas that theirs is "Hog Wild". That seems unfortunate somehow.
I set the California plate aside because it seemed festive, but I chucked the others. Also, I have the firm memory and pride of being the D.A.R.E Essay contest winner for my class to keep forever so I don't need this license plate. That's sarcasm in case any of you were thinking for a minute there that I was being honest. I already showed you the clothespin. I am beyond thinking I was cool.
Although I'm struggling with the Violence part of the D.A.R.E. plate. I know it stands for Drug Abuse Resistance Education (hello, essay contest winner), but now it says violence too? Shouldn't it be D.V.A.R.E.? I guess that's not catchy enough. I remember even at 12 I thought it was lame and something like an after school special. It was even taught by Officer Quimby. Whose last name is Quimby other than the guy from Inspector Gadget?
