L BOOM

A joke for those who got 80% of the way through Ulysses by James Joyce. The hero is Leopold Bloom, as many know, but his name is mispelled in the evening paper.

The best wrong interpretation was - a Mexican revolutionary.

Rapid motion through space elates one; so does notoriety; so does the possession of money.

Jeph:

What's NV mean? I don't get it.

I can't believe you put an ichthus on your car. I'm sure the cop giving you a speeding ticket, or someone seeing you blow by at speed will think that's a great witness!

I remain under cover and completely badgeless, thank you very much.

You got to love it. NV could mean envy. I guess that keeps the jesus fish in check or something. Or maybe its just short for Nevada, sin city usa and that keeps the jesus fish in check. Or maybe its not a jesus fish its Porsche's new fishster. No offense just playing with ya'

Hi,

MNBoxster <---- not happy following people with fishes on their cars, St. Christopher medals on their dash, or crucifixes hanging from their rearview mirrors as if they feel they need divine intervention to maintain control. Not dissing anyone's religious beliefs, just makes me very nervous - I mean suppose He's busy or on another call?...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

When I was looking for my car I came across a Boxster S with this plate.


It translates as:

Sup Ladies (as in What's up Ladies)

When I first picked mine CA had one type of plate that allowed 8 digits, but by the time I ordered it 3 weeks later they had removed them and I could only have 7, so I had to settle for this.
