There used to be little shiny red Honda in the neighborhood with the plate “MMMRICE”. I saw “HISLOSS” on a big ol’ black Yukon truck the other day. Yikes, guess _that_ divorce wasn’t so amicable, huh? ---

I knew a blonde woman who had “AUILOX” on her plates. That took a while to figure out. ---

> [@postcards](#): > > June bug… > > As for the others, I’m interested, too. _Jaune_ is French for ‘yellow’. 🙂 YDD 348 and JUH 899 just look like normal plates to me. Are you in an area that uses a different default arrangement of letters and numbers? ---

Cute 🙂 > > Go ahead and explain these please: > SPQR ## > JAUNE on a yellow Bug. > AZ38KR > YDD 348 > JUH 899 > MRTH MBL I can definitely explain “JAUNE,” since it means yellow in French. (Like how jaundice turns your skin yellow.) SPQR might be Senatus Populusque Romanus, the Senate and People of Rome, but I doubt that since there are really no numbers that go with that phrase. . . . And that’s all I got. ---
