OK, MOMZA (spell it any number of ways) is a Yiddish
version of momzer - literally a bastard.

What was funning about this situation was that we
actually got to meet the nice mid-America couple who
drove their car with that Missouri license plate.
(They would remind you of the couple in American Gothic!)
Turns out that one of their children called their mom 
momza - none of them knew why we (a few of us visiting
from the East Coast at the time) were laughing hysterically.

 OK Dov, you got me on that one. I even pulled out my Yiddish 
 Word Book for English-Speaking People and still have no clue. 
 What's MOMZA?

 For those of you who are still wondering what this
 was about ... tzurot means troubles in Hebrew.
 The Yiddish equivalent is tzuros or tsuris which
 is also troubles as in big time troubles!
 
 However, the more interesting license plate I saw in
 rural Missouri over 25 years ago was MOMZA.

...And I thought about getting a plate before that read MSBHAVN.
However, I figure it would attract too much of the wrong kind of
attention! Especially if it was on something like a sports car!

Is it nap time, yet?
