My only personalized license plate was for a Pontiac Trans Am.
It read QUIEN-S
Most people would pull up next to me and look at me quizzically. The few people who got it would laugh with a knowing look.

That goes back to the idiotic practice of keeping the registration decals directly on the plates themselves. People would get clear plastic covers for their plates to try to protect the decals. If you're old enough, you might remember consumer reporter Herb Dennenberg, who had a segment calling out people who did that (for making it harder for police to read the plates, etc.) while completely missing the reason for using the covers.

Reply to Jawn Morgan is doubling down. by liog2step
So a relative who's a retired lawyer told me that Morgan's firm has a national advertising budget of approximately $31 million per year.
Let that figure sink in as you think about all the absurd billboards and television ads that he has across the country.

Fatal Attraction ripped off the premise.

A lot of people don’t remember that Dick Clark started his career as the host of an afternoon dance show called American Bandstand that originated in Philadelphia.

Hedley Lamarr: Meeting adjourned. Oh, I am sorry, sir, I didn't mean to overstep my bounds. You say that. Governor Lepetomane: What? Hedley Lamarr: "Meeting is adjourned". Governor Lepetomane: It is? Hedley Lamarr: No, you say that, Governor. Governor Lepetomane: What? Hedley Lamarr: "Meeting is adjourned". Governor Lepetomane: It is? Hedley Lamarr: [sighs, then gives the governor a paddleball] Here, play around with this for awhile. Governor Lepetomane: Thank you, Hedy. Hedley Lamarr: No, it's Hedley! Governor Lepetomane: It is?

Paul Harvey references are indeed Old School. I’m old enough to remember when he was still broadcasting on the radio.

Ava Gardner would like a word.
She was so gorgeous that Frank SINATRA almost committed suicide over her.
