I want my license plate

PlateyplateThe fine folks in the California government (specifically the California Natural Resources Agency) asked me to help them encourage Californians to order one of the Snoopy license plates – they’ve got orders for over 5,500, so they have less than 2000 to go to hit that magic 7,500 number where the plate will actually be produced.

And I want my plate just to have the plate… but for the rest of you, they’ve got a little bribe. The first 7500 folks who get a plate also get special access to 58 California museums, as in free-or-reduced-price entrance. I’m not quite sure how they rig it – I’m sure it doesn’t involve carrying the plate itself in your wallet, ready to display it as you enter, but I want to imagine it that way, so I do.

Anyway, please go order, because I want my license plate! Order here.
