We hazard to guess that the subject of the "In Loving Memory" decal on the right either has another 13 good years to make sure he's remembered well, or else someone is wishing he'll be gone in 2024.
It must come as a weird sort of comfort to know that you'll be hitting 54 before the end comes. Or perhaps it's someone's death wish. It's morbid, nonetheless.
Either way, and for whatever reason someone would stick this on their rear window, it proved an eyecatcher on Morrison Road heading west approaching US 77-83 Tuesday morning.
Our eyesight isn't what it used to be in our younger years and the best we can guess is that it refers to someone named Antonio Camacho or something like that. We won't even try to decipher the middle name.
If someone knows this man, will you let him know he's good for another 13 good years? And if it's just a typo (as we often are guilty of committing ourselves), let's correct is so we can all commiserate and celebrate the memories of Tony's life.

Maybe this is cruel, but since I have thought it already, so be it. Why would anyone want to have a decal like such placed on a car. I think to myself that the person driving the vehicle is the beneficiary of a large life insurance that gave him the money to buy the vehicle on which he now displays this decal. Let the person RIP!
Wait you didn't get it. He is not dead until 2024.
It reminds me of when you drive through the Southmost or Las Prietas neighborhoods and you see life size+ statues of Jesus Christ or some other religious figure in people's yards. You start to think, whoa, those folks must really be religious. Then you finally come to the realization that you are in the middle of a Zeta neighborhood. But don't they realize that law enforcement can figure that out too? IDIOTAS!!!

Had I thought of it first, it would have been fun to do one for Julie.
