Personalized License Plate

I have been doing a lot of driving lately and have been struck by and impressed by the number of personalized license plates the creativity they display. That led me to think, what would your individual, team, or organizational personalized license plate be? Imagine a 7 character limit, per California.

FYI, mine would probably be FUN MAN or SMLNFAC.

What makes you smile, laugh, grin, etc.?

We all have something, right, that no matter what, the mere memory of which brings smile to our face. It could be an old picture; a puppy or kitten frolicking; staring in the mirror and gazing at your missing front teeth as a child; a joke; a line of dialog; a word?; who knows?

(For me the surefire smile generators are the word gesortenplatz and the memory of my late wife mispronouncing Kofi Annan as Afikomen, the part of the matzoh the gets hidden on Passover!)

In any event, one way to start building a list of activities that make people smile is to learn more about what people like to smile at.

So, let's make a little list, shall we? I think we can get to at least 50. Ready, set, go!
