I have this great little magnetic strip that Is designed to have a bumper sticker attached to it. Then you magnet it on to the bumper of the car. It's pretty slick, really - especially if you want a new bumper sticker, but don't want your car to like like one of those hippiemobiles where the entire back end is plastered with them. They become interchangable!
Of course, if it caught on to do bumper stickers like that, people would start stealing them, and it would be all over. :-P

Or how about "name an Edwin Starr song." Sure, maybe he has others, but do *you* know anyone who would think of something other than "War?"
