being taught parallel parking by a quantum physicist? did he tell you to stop using the instruments, and use the strong force?...or maybe it would be the weak force?

Christian Waters (yes, that's his real name) taught me to parallel park, and I still hear his voice in my head every time I do it! Parallel park, that is.

Whenever I parallel park (which is not too often because I try to avoid it and you don't have to do it so much in NJ) I think of my mom because she has this trick I still use, but it only applies if there's a car in the space in front of you: As you're backing into the space, start turning your wheels into the space as your steering wheel is aligned with the back seat of the car in front of you. It works.

Thanks for the Bday greetings. If I remember correctly, I taught you how to parallel park at 4:30AM with your driving exam at 7:30AM. Can you still do it?

I can still parallel park, but since I don't have license anymore, or a car, it's an untapped resource.
Not only was the driver's exam at 7:30, but we hit the road for Colorado that afternoon. There's no better way to learn how to drive than jumpin' onto a highway.

Whenever I parallel park, I visualize the image of Sharples, effortlessly gliding perfectly into his space in a maximum of two smooth movements.
