>"The Best LBC Named After an Edible Fungus".

I was at Porky's drive-in on a Saturday night some years ago.  I had my MG
Midget.  I received no unkind words from the street rodders except for one
guy who said, "That's the ugliest car I ever saw.  Looks like a mushroom."
The other street rodders seemed as perplexed as I that this guy called my
(admittedly unpretty) car after an edible fungus.
