Perhaps last month's Guess the Car got you singing, "New York, New York," by Frank Sinatra, or "New York State of Mind" by Billy Joel. If it didn't, you may have had a hard time guessing what the guy was talking about when he was pining for the Big Apple after moving to New Jersey. A coworker who bought an old gold early 1980s Chrysler New Yorker inspired us to create last month's brain bender, the answer to which, of course, was New Yorker = (Chrysler) New Yorker.
