I used to drive one of those as-huge-as-you-can-get station wagons when I was
in high school/college. It was a Pontiac Parisienne, whose name cracked me
up as I couldn't see it ever fitting on a Paris side street. We called her
Ponty Mython.

I'll tell you what, if you can parallel park one of those babies in downtown
college streets (which I could), you feel mighty accomplished. I have,
unfortunately, completely lost that skill.
