Just make damn sure that the wife pushes from the right end of the car. Of
course if you're looking for a method of getting rid of wifey that even
Hercule Poirot would think was just a sad mistake, there are few better
ways... :^)

Mine got really stuck once -- freed it by jacking up the rear end,
putting it in gear, running up the RPMs and having my wife push it off
the jack. When the tires hit the pavement it broke free. The procedure
was suggested to me by a tech guy at Moss.
Their may be less dramatic methods, perhaps sudden braking on your drive
around the block?
If you do use the jack method be sure it can come off the jack w/o the
jack then hitting the car (a block of wood on the jack might help) and
be double-darn sure you are in a forward gear and have a stretch of open
road ahead of you.
