Ok, in honor of the 100th post in this blog, this is a very special entry. It coincides with a recently completed drive from Birmingham to Nashville. The drive goes much faster when there's a lot on your mind and tonight was a prime example. In the midst of less important thoughts like the meaning of life and such, there are important brain-occupying thoughts like...what are the county codes on Alabama license plates? There are 67 of them and there are 60 minutes in an hour, so the challenge is set. If you don't buy the legitimacy of this demonstration, you may request to see it in person anytime it is convenient if you provide paper, pencil and an hour of time. So without any assistance, here goes:

1 - Jefferson
2 - Mobile
3 - Montgomery
4 - Autauga
5 - Baldwin
6 - Barbour
7 - Bibb
8 - Blount
9 -
10 - Butler
11 - Calhoun
12 - Chambers
13 - Cherokee
14 - Chickasaw
15 - Chilton
16 - Choctaw
17 - Clarke
18 - Clay
19 - Coffee
20 - Colbert
21 - Conecuh
22 - Coosa
23 - Covington
24 - Crenshaw
25 - Cullman
Dale
Dallas
Dekalb
Escambia
31- Etowah
32 - Fayette
33 - Franklin
34 - Geneva
35 - Greene
36 - Hale
37 - Henry
38 - Houston
39 - Jackson
40 - Lamar
41 - Lauderdale
42 - Lawrence
43 - Lee
44 - Limestone
45 - Lowndes
46 - Macon
47 - Madison
48 - Marengo
49 - Marion
50 - Marshall
51 - Monroe
52 - Morgan
53 - Perry
54 - Pickens
55 - Pike
56 - Randolph
57 - Russell
58 - Shelby
59 - St. Clair
60 - Sumter
61 - Talladega
62 - Tallapoosa
63 - Tuscaloosa
64 - Walker
65 - Washington
66 - Wilcox
67 - Winston

Oh well, complete and utter failure. 65 out of 67. Unacceptable.

Since every single one of you know exactly which two I'm missing, I'll confirm your suspicions. It's Bullock and Elmore.

Ok, this concludes a demonstration of how to be as lame and unexciting as possible on a Saturday night.
