It gets worse Herb. "Herbytoy" refers to my personalized plate "HRBYTOY"
which was first attached to an '86 Ford Ranger "slam" truck I once had
in an earlier wayward life. It also refers to my given name which like
yours, is Herbert. While I'm not a Head of State I do feel
distinguished....or was that extinguished.

Bill,
Regarding your choice of car names. The name Herbert has long
been
associated with distinguished folks such as Heads of State,
Financiers, and
Film Producers. It was not until an unfortunate incident in the
late
sixties that it became associated with questionable pieces of
machinery. I
do believe it is time to stop this foolishness. The idea of
assigning a
name with such a strong heritage to a 64 spridget is appalling.
If you ever acquire an Aston Martin let me know. I might
reconsider.
Herb
