...Harvey, Marinka, and M’liss for a word processor. He climbs the stairs and crosses himself, just as the host gleefully announces, “The reputation of Harvard is intact!”But once onstage, Donato has to play The Dice Game for a blue Pontiac Sunbird. “I came to Los Angeles by way of Las Vegas,” he tells Bob. “I’m still having nightmares about dice.”He overestimates the price of the car—though to this day, Donato maintains...

Drivers under 6 ft. may feel visually challenged, since one sits a few inches above ground and Pontiac skimped on a height-adjuster for the seats.
