Don't forget to apply the following stickers to your car:

 * A "Charton Heston is my president" or other NRA bumper sticker.
   Alternatively, you could use multiple logo stickers from ammunition
   manufacturers.
 * A POW/MIA flag or sticker.
 * A Department of Mental Health/Mental Retardation (or some such
   appropriate facility suitable to your location) parking permit (or a
   reasonable facsimile).
