Let go and let God

is a popular Xtian saying, meaning: Let God handle it.

There needs to be a joke about Saruman, Greenpeace and “Save the Ents” but darned if I’m the one funny enough to make it up.

That is cool! According to the CA DMV, the plate is still out, so looks like someone has it.

On the way home tonight I saw:

And I kept looking to see if it was a “wa” in a stupid font, but no, it really said “yonder.”

Is there a joke I’m missing, or did someone just screw up?

A coworker of mine in Seattle also has that plate - black Porsche 911.

I have a small blue lapel ‘button’ from the Tolkien craze in the 60’s that says:

“Frodo gave his finger for you.”

Apologies for the slight hijack, but you may be interested to know that I saw a car in Springfield the other day, with Illinois plates. The license plate said “LEGOLAS”.
