“They spun west into Wacker Drive, turned south again, swung suddenly into a parking lot, struck a patch of ice, skidded around once, grazed the corner of a filling station, and came to a full stop beside a startled attendant. Jake reached for a cigarette, his hands shaking. ‘Baby,’ he said admiringly, ‘baby, that was as skillful drunken driving as I’ve ever seen.’” Ah, 1939!
