My mom owned an old Plymouth (1940something?). It had a backseat the size of Alaska.
I remember we were driving home from the Supermarket. I was hunkered down in the backseat with the new knife I had just gotten at the vending machine at the market.
They sold tiny little folding knives, made out of zink or some other garbage metal, for about a dime. I was sawing at the back of my hand with it trying to get it to cut.
I remember my mom yell at me not to cut myself - just at the exact same instant I managed to do just that.
I'm thinking I had to have been around 4 years old at the time. (1956)
