One day, when Jerry was about 5, dad sent him out to the car to get something from the back seat. After trying unsuccessfully to get the door opened, Jerry shouted back to dad, "Dad, I can't get the door opened."

Dad called back, "Come on son, use your head."

Next thing dad knew, Jerry was bumping his head against the car door!
