Top 5 Most Inspirational Messages on Car Windshields

Those living in the U.S. are accustomed to bumper stickers and license plate frames announcing to the world that one's child is an honor student, that God is their co-pilot, or that Metallica is their favorite band. Well, in true SXM style, they've upped the ante. These messages are not attached to the back of the car in small print, but rather, in GIANT letters across their front windshield. It would all be fine…if only the messages made any sense. Of course, I can't remember them all, but here's a sample:

Honorable Mentions
- Jah Is Wonderful – I'm sure Bob would agree, Rasta!
- Sting Dem – I kid you not, these words were under a giant picture of a scorpion on the windshield of a taxi. We, on the island, call that good business.
- No Rest For Dead Souls - Actually, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what awaits the dead soul...a WHOLE LOTTA REST.


5. Jesus Live!
- Get your tickets now at your local Ticketmaster outlets. (wait for it…wait for it…there you go, now you get it)
- And Yes…I'm sure it's "Live" and not "Lives"

4. Be of Good Courage
- If I wasn't, believe you me, no chance I would ever drive on this island

3. There Is No Hope
- Yes there is. It's called an American Eagle flight, departing April 16th at 7:07 am.

2. Yes, I
- can? eat? hurt? would like a #3 combo with extra large fries?
- I'm sure somewhere in this guy's head, there is an end to this sentence. It's called a verb, dude. Learn to love them.

1. Jesus Smile
- Yes, I'm sure he did that at some point.
- YHO: Honestly, what the *bleep* does that mean?
H.A.: Really, dude? You're actually trying to make sense of this?
