Back in mid 80's I had a '66 Dodge Coronet. I got to work one cold and snowy day just a little early.

I sat in my car with the engine idling while listening to Pink Floyd on the 8-Track.

I went into work and forgot to turn the engine off. 8 hours later I was the only one whose car wasn't covered in snow.

It used just about a half tank of gas in 8 hours.

That's the price I paid to climb into a warm car.

yer outta line 3 of ya...the real story is stranger and more sinister....bits and pieces, gentleman, all work together to make the whole....and then there's the planet herself, ready to throw a big wrench in-This is a fabulous filmstrip, the genre not seen here on the sift cept' from Coronet, and Church of Subgenius, y'all sit back and relax into it again, and learn something....

From the director:

In this atypical Coronet guidance film, Nick, quite possibly the stupidest kid ever featured in any of these films, is so thick headed he doesnt even know what he'll do 10 minutes from now. Soon, as this is a Coronet film, he looks to the skies and listens to voices to tell him how to look ahead. He talks to himself as well, convinced, since this is Coronet film, that making a chart will solve everything. Soon of course, Nick becomes a well adjusted boy in school, and his problems are solved.
The actor playing Nick is screamlingly bad, which makes this film so much fun to watch.
