You have to check the batteries; it's already midnight!

Today I was enlightened with the funniest/sadest story in my neighborhood. It seems that around noon (EST/EDT) my neighbor named Buddy was outside mowing when he had the "call of nature". Like many men he found a bush nearby...and proceeded to his business. Things were going as normal until his cat "Spots" decided to jump and swipe/bite his "business"....poor fellow is in the hospital now. Bad enough he was injured but he is now the laughing stock of the nurses there and most of the neighbor

I just priced personalized plates here in Virginia. It will be cheaper to change my name to JAF-9418.

Here it's simple, you can't personalize so much. As with all plates for countries within the European Union, a blue strip on the left shows a shortened country code in white text (D for Deutschland = Germany) and the Flag of Europe (12 golden stars forming a circle on a blue background). That is always followed by city/region prefix code, no exceptions there. Then one or two letters, followed by one to four numbers.

The best I could do to get a personalized plate would be to move to Karlsruhe with city prefix KA, then pay a nominal (under €100) fee to get letters RI in the middle, followed with 4 numbers i.e my birthyear.

For those who might be interested of this: this example plate (image from wikipedia) is from a car whos owner lives in Saarbrücken. If he moves for instance here in Leipzig, he has four weeks time to change the local plates with city prefix L.

Oh I know...I kept it as clean as possible

Anybody out there have the number for AA help line? And I don't mean American Airlines or The Automobile Association, I mean the real thing. I'm on my second bottle of Laphroaig here and seemingly unwilling to stop enjoying it...

When the cat's away...
