I finally got a license plate for my car. Since I brought the car around the same time I moved into the new home, the post office returned the new license plate to DMV (license plate can not be forwarded by the USPS). I had to physically go to the much dreaded DMV office twice and finally got it settled. It only took nearly five months to get the plate, not bad! :-) One downside to this is, fearing the photo-cops, I can no longer run anymore red lights... j/k :-P
