A few days ago I tried to order a personalized license plate.
FOOBAR & FUBAR were already taken.  In fact FUBAR1 thru FUBAR7 were
also taken and FOOBAR 1-4 were too.  So I tried for AMFYOYO which is
an hospital abbreviation for allright mother F****r you're on you're
own.  It was rejected on the grounds it was obscene.  Does any one
want to guess why one is legally obscene and the others not.  The
DMV only sent me a postcard and refuses to elaborate.
