It's a tacky kind of air freshener sold at the Mini-Mart.

I wondered the same thing about 7 years ago. They are air fresheners that can be purchased in many stores. Ugly, yes. Ethnic, usually.

It means the driver/car owner is descended from royalty.

I first started seeing those about 15 years ago. I took them to be a sign of African royalty. Don't ask me why.

I was wondering how much longer Hank Williams Jr. had on his Monday Night Football contract. Who will take his place after he dies? Maybe Toby Keith. That would be awesome.

It is a mind control device.

Why do people have a little crown in their car?

To have one for the road, of course!

Because a big crown would obstruct their vision too much.

It is probably an Urban Myth, but I heard that one of the biggest manufacturers of those crowns is run by a Grand Wizard of the KKK.

What's with this spate of "antibacterial" soaps on the market?

Do you mean to tell me the soaps I've been using all these years are not antibacterial?

Even more odd: People who drive and lean their necks way over to the right so their heads are in front of the rear-view mirrors in the middle of the car all the time. It looks like an act of vanity, but perhaps there's more to it than that.

But what annoys me more than the crowns is the yellow "Baby on Board" signs that the Yuppies put on the rear windows of their Volvos and Lexus's. As if one would be more inclined to smash their cars into the back of them otherwise.

Anyway, why is it that TV weathermen feel they have to be "buddy-buddy" with the news readers on the set. Why the scripted banter back and forth? It's lame and it should be stopped immediately.

Maybe they couldn't afford a REAL Crown Victoria, and this is a close as it gets.

>>Why do people have a little crown in their car?<<

The crown isn't the thing. It's the crystals in the crown and their orientation to celestial stuff. It's always changing and requires complex on-the-fly calculations, which is why you often see these cars weaving.

The kleenex box with the gold trim means something too -- I think it means you're a diplomat's driver or something.
