While I was Driving, 17: Car License Plates for Quadriplegic and Others

Below's license plate is likely referring to the future, other-worldly  hope of paralyzed, quadriplegic Christian writer, Joni Eareckson Tada.  She also recently got infected with Covid-19 😕

We are the E Family -- and we  certainly love our 2 sons!

The ultimate Physician and healer of our souls -- the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth!

Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. 11This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. 12Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (Acts 4 )

Actor Danny DeVito

November 17: 

 it's Danny DeVito's 74th Birthday!

pc: Gage Skidmore/wikipedia

 Who can forget DeVito's despotic character, Louie De Palma,  in the tv show,  "Taxi"?!!

Louie is the main antagonist of the sitcom. The vain head dispatcher of the Sunshine Cab Company, Louie spends his time holding court inside the caged-in dispatch office at the garage, arguing with and bullying the drivers. He not only lacks morals, he is openly proud of his misdemeanors and outright crimes. Louie will do anything to benefit himself, from taking advantage of a drunken friend of his on, off girlfriend Zena Sherman (played by DeVito's real-life wife Rhea Perlman), to gambling with a young boy, to stealing from the company, to even spying on Elaine while she is changing (almost costing him his job). He lives with his mother (DeVito's real mother, Julia, in two episodes). On very rare occasions he helps his workers, as in the episode in which a cruel hairstylist (played by Ted Danson) gives Elaine a garish makeover just before a very important event, it is Louie who bolsters her confidence to confront him. In 1999, TV Guide ranked De Palma first on its list of the 50 greatest TV characters of all time. -- wikipedia

Guy and Pip License Plate: Happy Birthday Nora Aunor!

I have a strong feeling that the car owner is from the Philippines.

"Guy" refers to actress Nora Aunor (birthday, May 21st) and "Pip" is actor Tirso Cruz III . They were a mega-popular couple back in the day.

Nora was a nobody -- born poor, but catapulted to fame & fortune thru her singing ability.  Tirso sang also; so handsome that every girl from Housemaid to Grandma had a crush on him.  If Nora the plain-looking girl could attract such a handsome prince,  there was hope for the rest of us common folk. Sort of reminds me of the  Meghan Markle and Prince Harry romance, LoL.

Dear  Son says his German home town's Winters are not as harsh as ours; and the snow accumulation is tolerable.
