My Other Car is a Porsche Ad
“As electronic highway billboards flashing neon advertisements become more prevalent, the next frontier in distracted driving is already approaching — ad-blaring license plates… The device would mimic a standard license plate when the vehicle is in motion but would switch to digital ads or other messages when it is stopped for more than four seconds, whether in traffic or at a red light.” [San Jose Mercury News]

@Tommmcat Still Gets Carly Confused With Meg: We’re — I’m — not mad at her.

But her last statement on the subject was to call me a traitor or something, and I’m all about the running gags.
@nojo: I was the first to congratulate her on FB for getting a TPM gig.
