Car Talk

I often say that the only thing worse than a PT Cruiser is a PT Cruiser with a vanity plate ("PCCRUZN," "MYCRUZR" etc.) but yesterday I saw something that beats them both: a stretch PT Cruiser. I wish I were lying.

Today on the way home, I was stopped at a light next to a cobalt blue RAV4 with the license plate "VIJAY." Longtime readers may remember Vijay, my first driver in India. Not that I expected he'd relocated to Johnson County, but I was curious, so I inched up to check out Vijay. I couldn't get a good look at him, but I did notice a Ganesh on his dashboard. Is this a sign?
