The Internet License Plate Gallery [con't]
Plate | Owner | Registration | About the Owner |
---|---|---|---|
Bruce Edwards | Adorns a 1968 moke. | International plates, anyone? A moke, according to Bruce, is a "1000cc motor on wheels with a couple of seats attached." Bruce says it's the only way to travel, "a bit like riding a bike without a helmet." [Ummmmmmmm... "the Internet License Plate Gallery does not endorse the riding of bicycles without protective headgear." There. I feel better.] | |
| Registered in February of 2001 on a '97 Camry. | Ken is a Web developer and enjoys tinkering with PCs in his spare time. | |
Jeri Maier | First registered in 1999 and now on a Jeep Cherokee. | How many different meanings can one plate have? This plate promotes the "PC Super Highway," a fair representation of Jeri's work as a systems analyst for 23 years (now retired); the "Pacific Coast Highway," where Jeri lives; and PC-HWY.com - one of Jeri's Web sites. Jeri is also the founder and CEO of Boomers International, a portal for baby boomers. | |
Bruce Dawson | First registered "many years ago." | Bruce reports that this plate was lost for awhile in 1997 - the result of his car having been stolen (no doubt the thieves were really only interested in the plate). Fortunately, New Hampshire re-issued the plate for him before any other Linux fans could get to it. Bruce's site can be found at https://www.milessmithfarm.net. | |
Foxy | First registered in 1998 - now proudly displayed on... a wall. | Foxy has been a 'Net junkie since 1995, and registered this plate after spending "25 hours a day in front of the puter typing HTML in Notepad." | |
Bob Retzer | First registered in St. Louis, 1994; re-registered in California in 1998. Adorns a 1999 Pearl Red supercharged Mazda Miata. | Bob first registered this plate after starting his PC hardware repair/sales company PC Help of St Louis, Inc. In his current job, Bob maintains client machines on a Citrix Metaframe network running Win 2K with over 360 offices in 45 states nationwide. | |
David Ralph | Registered in 1999 for a Honda Civic DX Hatchback. | David registered this plate because "Web development is my passion." And although most Miami vanity plates adorn Jaguars and Porsches, David is still waiting for his Porsche. | |
Tony Armendariz | Registered in Illinois in 2001 and appears on a 1998 S-10 Blazer. | A Web Designer for an ad agency in Northbrook, Illinois, Tony chose WEB ART because he's "mostly a graphics guy first and a coder second." You can see Tony's personal portfolio at www.armendarizart.com. | |
Richard Jarrow | Registered in the spring of 1997 and rides on a red Camaro Z28 in Chicago. | Richard is in the networking technologies field, most strongly (as you may have already guessed) on the hardware side of the business. | |
Marrianne Bacon | Freshly registered this month (December 2001) on a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. | Marrianne spends most of her time doing Web development at work and at home, and was inspired to register this plate after a recent visit to this License Plate Gallery!

Scott A. McIntyre | Originally registered on a Honda Civic in 1994; later transferred to a Saab 900. | Scott's worked with TCP/IP and Unix since the mid 80's and was surprised that no one else in the Boston area had snatched this one up when he located there in '94. Looking for a self-promotional tool? Scott says that during the .com high days, he couldn't park his car in public without getting headhunter business cards stuck under the windshield wipers. | |
Ann Navarro | Registered in May of 2000. | Ann reports that WEBGEEK is not only her tag, but the name and trademark of her company, WebGeek, Inc. | |
