Alternative: SOL-123

Mike's contemplating getting this vanity tag if it "isn't already taken." He's out of luck; it's not taken, actually, but it's an eight-letter word, and the state limits you to seven characters. [Link to PDF file.] He also quotes a newly-arrived fellow whose plate arrived in two months, which is about two months faster than the state claims it can stamp 'em out. And in point of fact, I don't have a state-issued vanity tag, though since Oklahoma doesn't have a front plate to mess with, I filled up the available space with a bird picture.
