Vanity?

DAD: Oh, before I forget - I need the help of you and your Blogger friends.

ME: Yeah?

DAD: Yeah. You know I've had those vanity plates for awhile, right? "RBEAR 1".

ME: Sure.

DAD: Well, I've decided to retire the RBEAR 1 and get something different. I'm tired of having my name on there.

ME: What are you going to get?

DAD: I don't know, that's why I'm asking. I saw one in Florida that was pretty good. It said "T 1 UP". Like "Tee One Up." Like golf. I thought that was pretty clever.

ME: Right, right. Okay, so you want me to give you some ideas?

DAD: Well, I thought maybe you could make it like a contest or a sweepstakes. Have everybody give suggestions and we'll pick the best one!

ME: Ah. Well, what are the prizes?

DAD: Uh. I don't know. The privilege of being mentioned on your blogger maybe?

ME: Ehh... I don't usually ask people to do anything for the sake of my online journal. It's kinda...

DAD: Oh, okay, I see. But you can mention it, right?

ME: Sure, no problem. I'll throw something on there. Who knows? Maybe you'll get a couple of suggestions.

DAD: Great!

ME: Well, I just pulled into work, so I gotta go.

DAD: Okay, bud. Oh, one last thing...

ME: Yeah?

DAD: Don't put my e-mail address on there. I don't want to give it out.
