        I expect Faith is Life is correct, but due to compression it looks more like Fate Half. or Fate the Life, Fate the Laugh. I prefer the latter one since I am not a big fan of predestiny. :)

          Are you stalking me?:suss: No seriously it's not mine but you could ask how much the driver would want for it.:laugh: Half my post turns up for Mr Fatehalf or N Blaithful anyway. For the 8th Time, How many Ls in Faithful? :laugh:

                I think Faith Life is probably the right interpretation. There is a house on one of my walking routes that has a SAURON license plate. Every time I walk past it I imagine the driver being something like the comic book guy dressed in a black cape, but in the 2 years I've been walking past the house I still haven't seen him.

                          But how? If the 8 were not present, I could see that possibility. Deriving (the sound of) "ai" from 8 is just too big of a stretch.

                                Right, and I've even had some of them, but that made sense (at least somewhat). Is BURNN8 supposed to be "Burn and ate", "Burnin' 8", "Burning", or "Burn in 8"?

                                  Burninate as in burninate the countryside, burninate the villagers. I was kind of iffy on the faith life interpretation, but so many others here saw it the same way, even that Matthew Faithfull guy managed to figure it out.
