Mine is a movie reference. I first fell in love with the movies back when the first "Star Wars" came out, when I was five years old. "THX-1138" was the first movie George Lucas directed, in 1971. He referred to it in the other stuff he directed, getting a little sneakier every time. It's also in the intro to "Pinky and the Brain," it's the combination on the keypad lock in the "Oceans Eleven" remake, and there are tons of other references to it in movies and TV shows.

It's my license plate, too, so it's easy for people who know me from car forums to pick me out on the highway.
