I applied for my vanity plates about a month ago. Before that, my baby went by the name "BKH 731", envious of all the other miatas out there with their cool names. I was told that it would take 8-11 weeks before I'll receive the plates. But guess what? The plates arrived yesterday! Wowza! Guys, meet Shmoopy! She's really pleased with her new name, and proudly shows it off where ever she goes! I actually got the name from the famous, award-winning "Soup Nazi" episode of Seinfeld, where Jerry and his really cute new girlfriend Sheila started baby-talking and addressing each other lovingly as "Shmoopy". (read the script for the episode here: http://members.xoom.com/Home_of_Seinfeld/scripts/115.txt ) Being a die-hard Seinfeld fan, there couldn't be a better name for my miata! So if you see a bright red Mazda Miata out there that goes by the name of Shmoopy, remember to wave! She would really love that!
Regards, Patz!
