It's Ashcroft's fault, of course.

You mean Jenny? Her number is 867-5309.
To: John Jorsett
Sounds kind of like the Long Distance phone scam where a LD company would register itself under the names "Anyone", "I dont care", You Pick", etc.
That way, when setting up a new phone line and the operator asks "Who would you like as your LD carrier?" Ta Da! a new customer.

The 867-5309 number was for sale on Ebay a few months ago.

Could be worse. Ever get Dancing Queen by ABBA stuck in your head??? The radio kept playing it as part of a Broadway show commercial.

I heard a cute term for that, and it has stuck with me.
A tune that gets stuck in your head and you can't stop singing it even though you hate it is called an "ear worm".

Could be worse. Ever get Dancing Queen by ABBA stuck in your head???It can ALWAYS be worse. Someone could whisper Culture Club's "do you really want to love me" in your ear at work and it will take you weeks to get even.

I remember the story a few years back like this. In this state you were given three slots to pick your plate, but he only had two ideas, so he wrote on the third space "no plate" and sure enough, he go NO PLATE and started getting tickets in the mail.
To: John Jorsett
That is GOOD!!
Of course this is coming to a man who married a woman named 'No Name Jones'! True!!

My favorite was one from California a number of years ago: UPURZ2. DMV was too stupid to decipher it before issuing it, tried to steal it back, owner refused to cough it up - can't remember if Big Stupid Government managed to grab it back or not.

There have been cases of men being pursued by the state for child support even when DNA evidence shows they're not the father.
I wouldn't be surprised if an overzealous state's attorney general wages a media campaign to force him to pay the tickets.

When I bought a Saab, I wanted the vanity plate "SNAAB". Someone already has it.

I read a few years ago (it seemed to come from a legitimate source, but I won't vouch for it) about a guy who got the license plate "UKFA UYA" and explained it was an acronym for his organization, United Kids For A United Young America.
Read it in pig latin.
