The last time I got my vanity plates, I went to the MVA office in Glen Burnie and ordered them there at a window (or thee Vanity Plate window). So you don't have to do it solely through the mail, but it took more than a couple of weeks to actually receive them. The nice thing about going to the actual office is that they tell you right then and there what you can and cannot have.

Yeah, online would be nice.

You really need to stop doing that.
On another note I'll have something for you when you get back.

On the way home down 214 I passed an EB MCS with aftermarket black stripes. Looking good.

Saw a LY convertible parked at the Navy Football Stadium in Annapolis today; did a double-take as with its bonnet stripes it looked just like mine except being a convertible - left a tag for DCMM on the driver's seat; I would have left a Motoring Citation for leaving the top down and trusting others not to rob them blind, but I didn't think of that until later...

MD MVA will tell you over the phone if a plate is taken. In Gaithersburg the window for personalized tags is always empty. You don't even need a number. I just got FIRST 1 incase I get a BMW 130.

I thought I saw a HB/B convertible in my apartment complex the other day, so I drove through the lot tonight and found it again; whoever's got one with a license plate ending in "D96" (I believe - just my luck to have the memory of a goldfish at the moment), won't you be my neighbor?

Chased, but you took a right turn and I could not catch up cause of a light, a Black/White/Silver Wheeled MC this morning up Washington Blvd from George Mason to Glebe. There was a vanity plate I could not get close enough to read.

At about 1:30pm today, Pulling out of the Target shopping center on Cherry Hill road near Powdermill, saw a HB MCS. Wasn't sure if it was a conv or not since i had only a view of the front as he was pulling in. But I waved and recieved one back too.

Yesterday I saw a blue? Can't remember the color exactly, MINI driving downtown at 13th and F NW with the number 76 on the side.

Also, this morning I saw a liquid yellow MCS in the Penatagon parking lot with the vanity plate, dormaus. Anyone know these MINIs?

On my way to work today approx 6:25am, on 295 South, I was in the far left lane, you were in the far right lane, HB/B(I think) MCSC. You were taking the split to Rt50. We waved, but then a car got between us so not sure if you waved or not.

Dark Silver (I think) was following me in a spirited run to work this morning just before dawn...Old Granbury to Dirk's Road to Bryant-Irvin in Fort Worth.

I don't see too many MINIs down on my side of town...happy motoring

Saw Ms. Katie at the Ft McHenry tunnel toll booth yesterday about 10:30 am. The Mr. and I were returning rom Baltimore after driving out (getting separated, and ending up on BW Parkway rather than 95, and ending up at least 1/2 hour ahead of the rest of the group, but that's another story) with the MTTS crowd.
