     This reminds me of an episode of the SIMPSONS where Homer says to Moe
(who is over for a game of poker with the guys) that he's going to the
"garage".
Moe says in a synical voice "Oh la la! The 'garage'.  Hear that?  Homer's
going to the 'garage'"

Homer says "Oh yeah, what do you call it, Moe?"

"A car-hole" responds Moe.
