Notice something odd swinging from beneath the bumper of that pickup? Annapolis, MD lawmakers are trying to prevent vehicle owners from inciting such curiosity. They'd like to ban references to unseemly body parts, such as the dangling plastic appendages which often adorn extra-manly vehicles. The classic truckers' mudflap silhouette has come under fire as well, ostensibly to forestall the questions of passing children.
I say they're missing a fabulous opportunity. The best time to address the "facts o' life" is during a long family road trip. At what other juncture do people have the undivided attention of their squabbling brats, held captive and eager for diversion?
The article mentions that the proposal would ban drivers from displaying even the Venus de Milo on their cars. As a resident of Nashville, Tennessee, home of the controversial nekkid dancer statues, I've seen the damage caused by exposure to the arts. We now have a multimillion dollar symphony hall and museum full of references to salacious historical tales.
What with the hanging gonads, sexy mudflaps and violins gone wild, it's a wonder anything gets done here. The car morality cops can't point the finger at me though. My Mustang wears a bra, known in sanitized-for-your-protection terminology as a bumper protection shield.
