So if I get this right, this is "did I or didn't I..." ?
I was at the drive in, long weekend, someone inserted the ignition key into the trunk lock, and turned. It was the wrong key and when they kept on turning they wrecked the key. 180 degrees toasted.
So I having only able to find a sharp knife, a plastic spoon and used popsicle stick (off the ground), I made a key for my GM ignition (during intermission) from the popsicle stick (since the plaistic spoon from concessions wouldn't shape well), and drove the family home at the end of the evening.
The stick broke when I put the car into park as it was still sticking out of the ignition when we arrived home, so nothing left to display.
