Have you played the game recently, as an adult? We always get Hawaii and Alaska on I-95 - maybe people with those plates tend to keep them as long as possible as a matter of pride? On the East Coast anyway, we have trouble collecting the cowboy states - the Dakotas and Wyoming.
On a similar note I tried to reserve one at Radio Shack to take advantage of their $200 3GS in-store trade-in... their online reservation system was so busy they ran out of waiting list pin numbers and couldn't issue receipts. They took down my name and phone number on the other side of a receipt, put it somewhere near the register, and promised to give me a call. Yeah, so unless I'm undone by the guy's terrible handwriting, it's pretty much guaranteed that I'll have the new iphone before all you suckers.
"Not because it's too high-brow, but because, like a Brett Favre retirement press conference, it's been done, and it's meaning has been misinterpreted to begin with."
In this high-brow sentence, you're 2 for 3 on the apostrophes.
It should be noted that oleo is a proprietary brand name for a kind of margarine. The word the author was looking for is olio. Hasn't he ever done a fucking crossword puzzle?
Now that the apostrophe is gone, I suspect this means the halcyon days of C'lay's grammar/spelling/html errors are out the window too. Oh, nope, forgot a period in the first sentence. False alarm.
