PORTLAND, Ore. - At first glance, the net-stockinged blonde and her come-hither look changing a tire on the cover of the new book "Lube Jobs" triggers an impulse to lock up husbands and kids.

But authors Don and Debra Macleod just want to have a lighthearted look at marital sex. Their book, "Lube Jobs," is a how-to manual aimed at jump-starting marriages that have drifted into boredom or become stuck because of today's pressures and the endless litany of daily priorities.

It's a sex manual snout to tail, but tailored to the tensions of today's hectic life. It isn't the first book on the topic from the Alberta, Canada, couple, who wrote the 2004 book "The French Maid: And 21 More Naughty Sex Fantasies to Surprise and Arouse Your Man." And another book is in the works.

"Lube Jobs: A Woman's Guide to Great Maintenance Sex" is essentially lighthearted but addresses sensitive issues that are taboo in many minds.

1. wow... we sure have come a long way

because, of course, if there's sex problems in the marriage, it's obviously because the woman isn't trying hard enough, or she doesn't look like the sexpot in this picture...

the worst thing is that women will actually buy this book.

3. "Well, we're gonna have to put ya' up on the rack, check alignment...

fluid levels, ball joints, front end alignment. Probly take 3-4 hours and run around 300 bucks. 'Course, you can skip it and take your chances, but it wouldn't be safe."

4. A few very important questions about the book's cover art:

1. Where is the lug wrench? I see a screwdriver to remove the hubcap, but without a lug wrench that lady is going to pulling on that tire for a long, long time. Especially since the car has not been jacked up.

2. Why, in the name of all that is Holy, is she pulling a tire for a lube job? Additionally, without a lube gun and a creeper, that's another project that's going to take a long, long time.
