Of course, college isn't really about all of this anyways, right? Isn't it mostly to drink some beers and hang out with some friends?

It's about smoking blunts and slaying dope shorties.

I was on my way to the gym at lunch and i saw an SUV with Hawaiian license plates.

I live in Ottawa, Canada.

I think the bigger question may be, "Why am i paying attention to license plates?"

I saw a Hawaiian license plate last week in Las Vegas.

I was like "oh hmmmm... the Aloha State..... wait what?"

Yea I don't drink or nuttin, but I'll most likely start next year or so when the girl gets up here. Really don't have any reason to get drunk and sit in my dorm with friends since I can't really go and find a bitch to [censored]. It's easier if the girl is already there waiting to [censored] and you can just get drunk beforehand. So yea, I'll start next year [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

shipped via boat perhaps?

seems pretty impractical, but then again I've never really looked into the costs of moving [censored] from Hawaii to the continent

As far as I know rental cars in the US have often license plates from states you would never expect...Just an idea.

That's because when out of town cars are dropped off, the local branch(es) will rent them out (usually only when they have to (out of cars), because they generally have to cut the branch of origin in on the profit) until they're shipped or driven back to their point of origin.

For example, if I rent a car in NYC and drop it off in DC, the car may sit in DC for a while. In the meantime, the DC branch may rent it out if they run out of their own cars. (You generally pay a big fee if you want to drop off a car like this).

However, it's extremely unlikely that anyone would rent a car to drive from Hawaii to Ottawa (or Vegas). And when I worked at Budget (in Ottawa, no less) we couldn't rent out any American cars dropped off with us.

Wow, 2+2 is getting better and better! Now even learning things for live and not for poker only. Thanks, CMAR, that's good to know. Really wondered why I got a car with a Minnesota plate when I rented one in LA but now it makes some sense...
