Default This is why men don't write advice columns...

Dear Walter,
I hope you can help me here. The other day, I set
off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV
as usual. I hadn't driven more than a mile down the road
when the engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt.
I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got
home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in our bedroom
with the neighbor's daughter. I am 41, my husband is 44,
and the neighbor's daughter is 22.
We have been married for ten years. When I
confronted him, he broke down and admitted that they had
been having an affair for the past six months. I told him to
stop or I would leave him. He was let go from his job six
months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly
depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever
since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly
distant. He won't go to counseling and I'm afraid I
can't get through to him anymore. Can you please help?
Sincerely, Sheila
******************************
Dear Sheila:

A car stalling after being driven a short distance
can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start
by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it
is clear, check the vacuum pipes and hoses on the intake
manifold and also check all grounding wires. If none of
these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the
fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to
the injectors. I hope this helps.
Walter

If I wrote an advice column my advice would always be the same.

Dear So and So,

Cowboy up and quit your whining.

Sincerely
John
