7. It is a copy of an advice column.

Basically the woman is upset because after her car stalled, she returned home to find her husband in bed with the 19 yr old neighbor.

The male advice columnist gave her advice about car trouble.

14. If that is true, then it is both sad and funny, if it is make believe, then it is really funny. nt

9. not every problem can be solved with duct tape and WD40 ...

11. You're absolutely right!

Sometimes a problem can't be fixed which is why we have hammers. They are perfect for smashing the crap out of things.

19. If you can't fix it with a hammer...

It's because you don't have a big enough hammer.

20. that was the biggest joke growing up.

all dad needed was a hammer.

i married a man that has tons of tools and fixes everything. was an eye opener and a whole other world.

btw... you posted too late on the thread about the wedding, but you are right on. i knew it. lol. i just let others talk me into wearing what i wanted. but, it was a perfect post. i could hear my moms voice in my head. just wanted to say

10. One could look at it as good advice.

If the woman knew how to keep her car in good running order, it wouldn't have broke down and she wouldn't have caught her hubby in bed with the 19 year old.

13. That was just horrible advice.

He didn't mention anything about checking the choke to see if it was stuck, or the air cleaner to see if it was clogged. Hell, a squirrel could've climbed up into the tailpipe to keep warm and got stuck. That guy is a lousy mechanic.

16. Well some things actually can be "fixed".

Take my dog Lucky. She got "fixed". Yet all the dogs use her for their cheap thrills. I don't get it.

17. That read a bit like a Cartalk column!

In fact, I wouldn't be a bit surprised to hear that on a future show!

I (a man) secretly rather enjoy reading advice columns, but if I were to be an Agony Uncle, 90% of the time my advice would be one or more of a) Get over it!, b) It's not about you!, c) Mind your own business!, or d) Screw "Thank You" letters!

18. Hell, men shouldn't even write to advice columns...

Dear Abby

I've never written to you before, but I really need your advice on what could be a crucial decision. I've suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me.

The usual signs ... phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says, "Just some friends from work, you don't know them."

I always stay awake to look out for her taxi coming home, but she always walks down the drive. Although I can hear a car driving off, as if she has gotten out of the car round the corner. Why? Maybe she wasn't in a taxi? I once picked her cell phone up just to see what time it was and she went berserk and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and why was I checking up on her.

Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife. I think deep down I just didn't want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her.

I decided I was going to park my Harley Davidson motorcycle next to the garage and then hide behind it so I could get a good view of the whole street when she came home. It was at that moment, crouching behind my Harley, that I noticed that the valve covers on my engine seemed to be leaking a little oil.

Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the dealer?
