A long time ago a woman here in NY crashed the DMV computer with a "Circular Reference".

Her first license was Jane Doe

married, it changed to Jane Smith

divorced and married again, Jane Jones

divorced and married again, Jane Black

divorced and REMARRIED her first husband!

DMV had to shut it down and reboot.

don't remember how they rectified the CR.

How much you want to bet that the money grubbing police/municipal government forces her to pay these tickets.

Oh I get it now.

Not that I got the joke to begin with, like all the other smarties around here...I didn't...but now realize that Muttly's Annual Sun-Spot-Induced X-Ray Vision made him see it frontways backward....so vision must have travelled around the Earth and saw Lic. Plate from the other side...

...pretty cool.

One of my coworkers has:

3W 69

He claims it means something if you read it from left to right and upside down.
