FIRST THOUGHT

I like to put words to abbreviated personalized license plates or figure out what the letters mean.

I was driving to Chillicothe today, and as I was going down US 35 East, I saw a red pickup truck behind me. As he passed me, I noticed that his license plate read: GB PKRS.

My first thought within seconds was GREEN BEAN PICKERS. Then I thought, it doesn't look much like a farm truck, it was a late model.

So I thought about it some more and realized that it probably meant: GREEN BAY PACKERS.

You see, I like green beans, and I have no interest in the Packers, and don't follow them at all. I like cheese, but am NOT a cheese-head.

So my first thought was what I like - not necessarily what the truck owner liked!
