Personalized plates in Honolulu

i'm going to get personalized plates for my cutie. i remember seeing KISSMY-S around town and haven't seen it in a while. i found the following star bulletin kokua line story: http://archives.starbulletin.com/200...kokualine.html. was that MCS owner really forced to give up the plate?

OK if you want plates then to check if they are available then go to-
http://www4.honolulu.gov/specialplat...frmInquiry.asp

I put in KISMY-S and it replied
Sorry, license plate KISMY-S has been found to be offensive and will not be allowed.

OK, so you can do better than that.
I tried a few-
Congratulations! License plate DEV-SKT is available.
Congratulations! License plate DEVLYN is available.
Congratulations! License plate KOOL-KA is available.
Congratulations! License plate COOPA is available.

Be creative.

I talked to the owner some time ago when the city gave notice to surrender the plates. At that time, the owner was still contemplating on keeping them, but I think reluctantly gave them up

Hey, I just checked... and
Sorry, license plate MINIAC has already been reserved.

What is the status of that plate of yours?

Some tries-
Sorry, license plate MNHUNE has already been reserved.
Congratulations! License plate MINHUN is available
Congratulations! License plate MINHNE is available.

I think this one is my best MINI plate-
Congratulations! License plate LIL-GTR is available.

Or maybe
Congratulations! License plate 0-60N3S is available.
For my "other car".

Ever since I gave up MINIAC, the plate has been reserved but have never seen the new one

i actually had put in my reservation for DOMINA the day before i picked her up, since that's her name. bummer that i probably won't get the plates til end of march at soonest.

i had contemplated QUIM as a plate but decided against it even before i checked and saw it had been deemed offensive. about ten years ago, i did see a porsche with that plate. guess they had to turn theirs in, too.

for those of you who aren't into shakespearean english (particularly naughty shakespearean english) like i am, "quim" refers to the...err...netherlands of a woman.

as for the kissmy-s one...how utterly lame that it was deemed offensive. hello, the CAR is an S, and as a MINI, completely deserving of affection. *grumble*
