Does anybody know this guy?

The other day in downtown Fort Wayne IN, I saw a late model red Accord with Ohio plates. The plate numer? 5W20 OIL. I nearly drove over the curb laughing.

Hey nice, but for the watery grade. I wonder if I can get one that says "10w40 OIL."

That's gotta be a BITOG or NORIA member....

I once saw a car with the plate number "4X4X8". It was an Accord. (A Cord of wood is 4 feet x 4 feet x 8 feet)(A Face Cord is 18 inches x 4 feet x 8 feet).

Very clever. I wood never have figured that one out.

Perhaps we've found obbop?

Whatever happened to obbop? I've been wondering that for quite some time. Loved his posts.

 

[handyman]

obbop has gone posting world wide. Just Goggle "obbop" and you can see what the old coot is up to.

 

[Gary Allan]

Coot Global, huh?

Back to license plates. How about this:

"LOVE OIL"

Now that would be a great plate!

"Other non-legal definitions of firewood volume include standing cord, kitchen cord, running cord, face cord, fencing cord, and country cord. A face cord many times is defined as 1/3 of a full cord. It is therefore typically a pile of stacked wood with logs (split or unsplit) 16 inches in length x 4 feet high x 8 feet long.

According to the Weights and Measures Act in Canada, the only true definable cord is a full cord and all other fractions thereof."

I'll add to that, a "tourist cord" sold at ski lodges and the bundle of firewood sold roadside to park campers, advertized to entice the greenhorns as "Fresh Firewood" $5.

"Love Oil"

OPEC already has a corner on that one.
