Class of 25, 26, 27 is 3 years. Easy enough at least in my era to have knocked off a bunch of your general ed prereqs in a year at junior college then transfer to the big school for 3 full years and you graduate.
I understand that nowadays at many schools it’s nearly impossible to graduate with a “4 year” degree in less than 5 or 6 years due to crowding. You could do the work in 4 years if you could get into all the classes on time. But you can’t get into all the classes you need in the semesters you need them, so they slide to next semester. Eventually after 5 or 6 diligent years you can graduate.
Saw a fun one today. Generic ragged family van / beachmobile. The plate background was one of the ocean / eco wildlife / fishing booster plates. It read FINS2RT.
Yes that is possible, I just thought it odd that one was in the Future. Of course usually when the kid is the University there is the Proud parent of a < insert university + mascot here >, and the bumper sticker was only the stylized V of the Cavaliers
Saw one tonight that I’d seen around before but had failed to post. Memory is like that.
It was dark so sorta hard to tell, but a nice late model SUV; maybe an ID.4? Standard FL plate reads DOM. The windows were tinted so I couldn’t tell if the driver was some old dude named Dominic, or a woman who earns her living with a leather outfit, spiky boots, and a whip.
Saw SLVRBK 8 this morning when the driver ran a red light in front of me. Are gorillas color-blind and can’t tell the difference between a red and greed light?
Scored three (well, two and a half) on my morning peregrination:
A California plate with NIKITHA. A pretty name.
A Ford Expedition I spotted while we were both waiting at a traffic light and they were a little far away at a bad angle for me to read accurately. It looked like it said ASS BDY. I was figuring it belonged to some totally hot yoga instructor babe quite proud of her configuration.
Once the light changed I was able to jockey for a better view. It was an ordinary series plate: AS5 8DY. The 40-something guy driving it was no athlete of any kind. Might be world class at 12oz curls though. Color me soo disappointed.
MR⎵⎵NSA on a snazzy Audi sedan. If he’s a spy, he’s got an interesting take on camouflage. Maybe he’s Mister No Strings Attached; all about love 'em and leave 'em or FBW-only.
JSPADA4. Jay Espada? Or J for José or Jesus or Jamie or …
OVRSTKR on a pickup truck. Overstocker, as in somebody who deals in odd lots & closeouts? Oversticker as in he’s proud to have overpaid for his truck? Or maybe he’s proud of being a car salesman so good he routinely gets people to buy for over sticker?
CUBA⎵GAL drives a nice X3.
HAHAGAZ on a Tesla Model Y
OBRIANS on a gussied up Jeep.
TAURUS on a SUV. Not on a Taurus. When was the last time any of us saw a Taurus?
We know Jesus owned and operated a Plymouth, because he drove the money changers out of the temple in a Fury (Matthew 21).
It’s believed he also drove a Honda, as did his dad, though Jesus preferred not to call attention to his own vehicle in this case: “For I speak not of my own Accord, but of my father’s” (John 12).
I wasn’t aware that he had a VW bug too. Maybe just for Sundays!
when I passed them.
