It's a sad day for my baby, the Cannibalistic Corrolla.  It got cannibalized by a parking garage.  Parking garages are not particularly user-friendly: this one has random sharp turns, steel-lined cement pillars and narrow through-ways.  I took a sharp turn into a narrow through way and got too close to a steel lined pillar.  Okay, ended up wedged against the pillar and stuck.  Called CAA.  Waited until 4:30am for CAA only to discover that the garage was too low for their truck.  The guy came downstairs with a jack, squirmed under my baby and managed to unwedge me.
Sigh...  It could have been worse...  Nothing hurt but my pride, the left side of my car and my wallet.  Sigh, I need a good body shop.

You need a bigger garage m'dear!
Wasn't even my garage!
Ugh... that sucks! Sorry to hear about your car.
I know a good body shop here in Montreal if you have the car with you, but since that's unlikely I think you might have better luck asking the Ottawa contingent.
What garage were you in?
