Howdy Folks:
Two years ago for my birthday, my wife bought me my XKR. This year she bought me this personilized license tag. Thought I would share it with you.

Dr. D, for about 2 minutes 20 seconds I thought that your loving wifey purchased you a new camcorder.

I like the new plate. Beautiful vehicle!

Happy Birthday!

The suspense was killing me! My initial thought was you were rushing out to the car because it was possessed and had turned the radio on itself...song choice was 'hers'

For those who haven't flown a quadcopter ROV using FPV this is as close as it gets.
Pass the Dramamine - I'll have a G+T to wash it down.

From time to time I have seen discussions of what "gender" or "personality" a particular vehicle has. I believe XK8/XKR are more typically described as feminine rather than masculine. I guess this confirms it.

You folks are so observant (and very smart). Here are some facts:
  • The song started before I got to the car
  • When the antenna went up, it enhanced the the signal received
  • The song came over the the radio in standard FM mode
  • THe tuner was set to 107.5 MC (the same frequency that my Sirius unit uses but the Sirius unit was off)
  • I understand your thinking about "her song choice" as I did see Tom Jones in Charlotte NC in the early 80's and the ladies did go bonkers
  • "Possessed" I do not think so, but I will have get back to you on that!

After a forensic analysis of the angles, I believe that it is just the gable of my neighbors house, and is not some demonic sign of an Aston Martin in my future. Again I say that you all are so observant. A good find.
