How to Change Your Oil
Women:
1. Pull up to Jiffy Lube 3000 miles after the last oil change.
2. Drink a cup of coffee.
3. Fifteen minutes later, write a check and leave with a properly maintained vehicle.
Men:
1. Go to O'Reilly auto parts and write a check for 50 dollars for oil, filter, kitty litter, hand cleaner and scented tree.
2. Discover that the used oil container is full. Instead of taking it back to O'Reilly to recycle, dump in hole in back yard.
3. Open a beer and drink it.
4. Jack car up. Spend 30 minutes looking for jack stands.
5. Find jack stands under kid's pedal car.

Hi all,
It is taking so long to go through back to previous posts. My comment on how the men change oil, I am not sure they could get half-way through the process with all the beer they drink. Mental note, go and change the oil myself rather than having a passed out man on the driveway and forgetting about it, and risking driviing over him LOL.
;D
Sincerely,
