UNBELIEVABLE!
An hour or so ago, I was driving through a local Plaza Parking Lot to go get a bite to eat.
I came across a very nice, high end, luxury vehicle parked in front of the Chinese Takeout place. The PERSONALIZED license plate noted:
IM NUD
Now, HOW would YOU pronounce that?
So, being ME, I couldn’t resist. No one was behind me, so I pulled slowly forward, rolled down my passenger side window -
The VERY POLISHED, WELL DRESSED, EYE-GLASS WEARING woman looked at me. I SMILED and said, ‘Well, I just had to check?’ She gave a questioning look. I said: ‘The license plate!’
She said: ‘Oh, you probably think it says I’m nude – but it says I’m Nud (pronounced with American English short U sound as in Nut).
I went silent and drove forward. It took EVERYTHING in me not to LAUGH OUT LOUD!
I give a talk called ‘Seeing with New Eyes’ and shifting personal awareness and perception. Guess she told me!
I Laughed out Loud and giggled in the car. I had to slow down and tell another driver passing me in the other direction. They laughed out loud.
Here’s the big BA DUMP BUMP and *rim shot
The number 5 is pronounced HA in Thai – I looked at my car clock and it noted: 5:55 – - I had to let out another HA:HAHA!
I think some silly laughter angel SET ME UP for THAT one!
Live Life! Laugh Often! Whether you’re NUDE or NUD – uh I mean or NOT!
DRIVE YOURSELF HAPPY!

Synchronici-TEE!
Thursday, August 19th, 2010
I’ve already written a few blogs on my DRIVE YOURSELF HAPPY campaign. Well, today’s SYNCHRONICI-TEE boggled my mind; made me more alert while driving and brought a laugh out of my mouth and smile to my face!
I had just finished making a SPECIALLY designed t-shirt for my niece who is on her Cross Country Team. I found out this past year, that it is abbreviated XC.
So, when she excitedly posted a message on Facebook about XC I was creatively inspired! I made a t-shirt for her that notes:
XCellent
XCiting
XCeptional
I placed the transfer on a grey/athletic t-shirt and had it with me in the car so I could get some lunch first, and then take it to the local post office.
Well, as we all know, our minds can wonder while driving; hence my Drive Yourself Happy campaign, to AWAKEN drivers. I get to a major intersection, and I start to ‘drift’. I suddenly look at the driver’s license plate on the car in front of me as the light turns green! It starts out with the first three letters:
EXC
How SYNCHRONISTIC and XCeptional, XCiting and XCellent was THAT!
Gotta LOVE the Snchronici-TEE!
