The results are in, and some crooked CPA that usually works for the mob has tabulated the results and the winner of the “Name That Car Contest” is…
…technically, no one. But one entrant did manage to inspire me. However, before we get to the name of the new Mustang and the winner, here are the entries….
From the Vinyl Villager… Sofonda Peters
From Kim the Military Wife… Ponyqueen
From Judy Finkel…Mona
From Jashiku at Word of the Gay… Carla (because she’s a car); Fabiola (because she’s fab); Hester (she’s sooo “Scarlet.”); and Tina Turner Overdrive (TiTO for short)
From trouble13… Whoopsie (since you spent tax money on her… it’s fitting); Eva Destruction (I just like this one); Tequila Mockingbird (this one just makes me smile); Iona Sextoy (Mustangs are H-O-T); and Ivana B. Queen (don’t we all)
From Sista Sharon… Whoopsie Goldberg. I like that one. A lot. And your backup singers could be the Color Purples. or, Stevie McQueen (well, Steve McQueen was fabulous and he always drove the hell out of some awesome cars.)
Thanks for all the input, ya’ll. I laughed a lot, which was the entire point.
Now, the winners are…
TROUBLE 13 and SISTA SHARON!!!!!
But, I’m not using their suggestions exactly as stated. Instead, I’ve decided to name the car….
MISS CELIE.
Why?
A. Because I spent my tax money on her (i.e., “Whoopsie Goldberg).
B. She doesn’t have a ceiling (get it? Celie? Ceiling? Punny?).
C. I AM naming my backup singers the Color Purples. It’s simply the best name for backup singers EVER!!!!!
D. Whenever I drive her, she can say, “Mister just got up in me and did his business.”
Again, I can’t thank all of the Fart Blossoms enough.
Kisses,
Maxine (and Miss Celie and The Color Purples)

Love it!!
I might have to steal this idea so I can give my incredible talking car a real name…
hmmmm….
MAXINE SAYS… Mary, if it’s a talking car, then you HAVE to name it Miss KITTy (like KITT from Knight Rider!).
That’s a fabulous name, Maxine.
And the “Mister just got up in me and did his business.” line is just perfect.
I say that exact line allthetime too.
MAXINE SAYS… Don’t be surprised if Miss Celie and I show up in your driveway some day…
Please please please show up in Midtown Manhattan Drivin’ Miss Celie… Tina blaring on the radio, top-down, wig Whippin’ in the Wind!
MAXINE SAYS… Honey, the only problem is that my wig don’t whip - I keep it shellacked in pink rollers (really, I do). I kind of just sits there.
Yer gonna have to visit the shithole formerly known as Atlanta for our AIDSWalk, since you’re affiliated and everything (you were VERY cute in your interview!).
