9. Her mom, sister, and niece all had birthdays this past week
So Friday we are taking them out for dinner. Since you mentioned this is a nearly routine Friday thing, I see no reason why we can't do it soon. :bounce:

6. When we moved to SC in 1987, my son's plate was 3 letters and 666.
You can't believe how many of his friends told him to throw it away and get another one! He didn't, and there were no problems!

There are lots of people who are extremely intimidated by those numbers!

14. I am amused by superstition
I just hope some fundie creep doesn't key me, or worse. Otherwise, I enjoy the number. :evilgrin:

7. I'm no fundie but ... I'd turn those babies back in
When I go to a store and my total purchases come out to $6.66, I always buy something else. I'm far from a fundamentalist but I want to cover all my bases just in case ...

12. Hahahahaa!
I am an atheist who scoffs at such notions. I am amused that numerology holds such sway over people.

Besides, biblical scholarship lately says the number may have been translated wrong, and it is actually 616. Too late to go back and change those purchases, eh?

File a complaint with Herr Governator
Tell him that Satan has taken posession of your car ever since you put the new plates on, that your car only drives in reverse now, and that your average gas mileage is 6.66 MPH.

See if he sends you a voucher for a new car :evilgrin:

15. They're vanity plates, aren't they?
It's something like "SATAN 666", right? :evilgrin:

18. Nope
I despise vanity plates (too cutesy and precious). This is my father Satan welcoming me home. :evilgrin:

24. My one nitpick with the palm tree one
I like it, except the sun looks like a rust spot from a distance, lol. I do like the whale one, but since I didn't request it, I am happy with this one. :bounce:

27. I actually
drive my car on the east coast so it's my subtle way of being "look I'm from California, we have palm trees!".. ;)

Congrats on your move, btw, ZombyWoof! :)

19. I was there maybe 90 minutes tops
2 visits. Had to get my smog check, and that alone was an ordeal of a wait. But yes, well worth the wait. :evilgrin:

21. You should take to parking in a Pentecostal Church parking lot
I'm sure no one would ever try to hurt your car.

26. Depends on the condition of the car
What happens if one of the holy rollers tosses strychnine on the paint?

30. I agree
But it makes fundies nervous. Anything to play with their fears brings me amusement.
