That’s a Really Bad Choice For A Personalized License Plate

Are you considering getting a personalized license plate? You might want to make sure you consider your choice VERY carefully.

Jim Monaghan with you on a Monday morning. We had a nice weekend. Don't know how you celebrated. Maybe you got together with some friends, an adult beverage or two.

I was the one sitting in the back yard yesterday playing with the dogs. They wanted to play catch. And so, I mean, it must have been a half an hour. Throw the ball, bring it back, and then they don't want to give it to you.

But that's beside the point.

At the same time, enjoying a nice, cold adult beverage, perhaps you did the same.

Which is why on Mondays we like to ask how were you - How F'd Up Were You?

And hopefully not as effed up as these two people who kind of advertised what was going on?

Two people in Missouri pulled over. We're not sure why, but when the cops got to them, they immediately fled the car. Again, we don't know why the vehicle was pulled over, but the license plates may have had something to do with catching the attention of the police officers.

Because the license plate said, "WE HIGH." They were both caught and arrested, the case still under investigation.

Now, that in and of itself the may not be illegal for a license plate. According to the Department of Revenue in Missouri, no personalized license plates shall be issued containing any letters, numbers or combination of letters and numbers which are obscene, profane, patently offensive, or contemptuous of a racial or ethnic group or offensive to good taste or decency, or would present an unreasonable danger to the health or safety of the applicant of other users of streets and highways or the public in any location where the vehicle with such a plate maybe found.

Now, I don't know if "WE HIGH" violates any of that. I don't think so. But again, not being a lawyer, I really can't answer that.

But there may indeed have been some truth in advertising with regard to that, in which case, Stephen A has a comment.

Apparently not.

And that's this morning's How F'd Up Were You here on the DHA morning jolt.

Somehow, we’ve already reached August here in the Garden State.

Maybe you’re planning on hitting the beach every day that you possibly can. Maybe you’ve got a road trip to visit family or friends lined up. Or maybe you’re planning on having a cookout in your own backyard. But if you are looking for something fun to do that involves food, I’ve got you covered.

There are many events taking place this month around Jersey where you can sample some great food, whether it’s sweets or delicious food truck creations.

It’s always fun to head to one of the events with a group of friends or your family, so you can sample some unique eats and discuss with your party.

Even when you have to travel a bit to get to the festival or celebration, it’s kind of neat to take a road trip to have some great car ride conversation and listen to some cool music!

Last summer, we invited my son’s best friend and his parents to a food truck festival near our house and it was a lot of fun because we got to know them better and have some fun talking and hanging out. All while enjoying delicious food. As a matter of fact, we still talk about these special French Fries that one of the trucks was selling. They were amazing!!

So, I’ve put together this list of five really cool events that you might want to attend, Whether it’s to bond with your friends, travel to another town, enjoy some really tasty treats, or all of it!
