I help ladies with a flat. Any healthy guy that drives should be able to change his own tire. I was at a gas station and heard some 16 or 17 year old screaming into his phone "dad, you have to come change my tire now!". I just shook my head. My dad you have just laughed and told me to change my F**ing tire myself, then hung up.
The road our neighborhood empties out to is a very rural 2 lane hilly tree lined road. I often drove three miles and saw no other cars or trucks. I was coming home and saw a very unusual site, a "lady" is a tight very short mini skirt and wild revealing top. She just looked like a hooker or a party girl from the night club. This was on a Saturday morning. She was standing in her high heels next to a dude in his 60s Mustang with his head under the hood. I stopped and went back to see if I could help.
Evidently he had been hooning around and trying to speed shift, and the shaft that holds a bell-crank for the clutch cable had popped off. He was struggling to get it in place with no luck. I helped push and pull the bell-crank back into place, and he could drive again. I looked at that chick and once again the though of hooker came to mind. He fired it up, and drove away and a normal pace.
