scraping the bottom of the plates barrel?

Just as I was pondering the fact that I didn't see very many interesting vanity plates lately*, I found two, marginally connected, that struck my fancy.

The first was   EA71NN  . Sound advice, it seemed to me. Eating out is rather expensive, unless you eat cheap food.

Hence the second plate, probably issued from the same office (certainly the same city**):   EA78AT  . I don't know what the going rate for bat meat is these days, but it can't be too pricey.


* In a similar vein, I thought, tangentially, that I'm not seeing Honda Odysseys everywhere; upon which I was met with two almost immediately on the other side of the road. Observation changes the subject.

** There are only so many readable variations of the EA series, but there are certainly enough of the plates rolling around, around here. I've mentioned one I'd seen many a time, a while back. I'm not in that neighborhood very often anymore, and I do miss it. The area, not the car.
