<VV> fuzzy dice and more such inane drivel.

[Rick Norris]

Fuzzy dice, schumzzy dice!
I have a shrunken head that hangs from the mirrior of my V8 Vair.
I call him "Big LeRoy". You call him Sir!
Got no special name for the car. Usually refer to it as the V8 Vair.
Others refer to it as "What da farookie wazzat"!
I did name my Yenko clone. I call it Bozo, as in Bozo the Clone!
Others refer to it as the Sunoco Corvair.
I had a set of bright orange streamers on the hand grips of my
Schwinn Mark II Jaguar three speed bike along with flames on the chrome 
fenders.Cool!
I had a solid black cat I named Spot!
Had an ex-wife I called...uhh...nevermind!

Fuzzy dice became popular in the '50s as a way to "pimp your ride".
Some people also carried a pair of dice in their pocket as a good luck
charm (I graduated from high school in 1957).  In those days, most of
the guys with hot cars had fuzzy dice (and brodie knobs), so the reason
was to be cool.  Today?  Most likely nostalgia.  My wife has them on her
Miata, most likely as a nostalgic reminder of the '51 "hotrod" Ford she
shared with her brother(dual glass packs, lowered rear end, fuzzy dice,
brodie knob, etc.).
