The resourceful course of action is to do your exploration completely….

Brooke, you would totally have a day off if you move to Russia. And men would cook for you, present you with rotten yellow mimosa blossoms (the only flowers available in season) and expect you praise their goodwill and benevolence while you clean up the mess they produce in you spic&span kitchen.

So you find women who do their own plumbing sexy? Now you tell me. I would have brought my basin wrench to the Mundies.

I’ll tell you what to do right now: tighten the loose dishwasher pipe.

Why didn’t I know about this holiday? Why didn’t I have the day off? Why is it a man had to tell me about it? Why can’t I stop asking questions?

I can build stuff, fix stuff, and change my own tires . . . yet I still need a shower buddy to soap me up and dispense shampoo.

I love a story with layers. That’s you, Neil. Layers. Like an onion, baby.

Thanks, Anne. But I still feel a little down on myself. I was just watching a “Fear Factor” rerun and I saw how brave those contestants were in bungee jumping into Hoover Dam and eating rat intestines. They kept on saying “how competitive” they were and they were there to win. They were taunting each other, trying to make each one afraid of doing the stunt. I would probably neither bungee jump nor eat rat intestines (is it kosher?) That’s just me. But someday, I would like to. And maybe if I had started facing my fear with the pipes –

I noticed that even Sophia is disappointed that I didn’t solve the pipe problem myself. In order to prove my worth to my readers — and Sophia — I have decided to be proactive. I have paid one of Sophia’s Russian friends (we think he may be a mobster) $300 to come over later to Sophia’s house when I’m out having dinner with her. I will leave the door ajar and asked him to loosen the pipes in the dishwasher after he puts it on, so when we come back home, the entire first floor is flooded. I will then email Anne again and she will tell me what to do — and this time I will solve the problem. My readers will be impressed. Sophia will be be impressed, especially after I tell her that I caused the flood myself just to prove my manliness to her. And I’m sure she’s going to be so turned on by my actions, that you going to see some hot blog post tomorrow giving all the sexy details of what happened after!

Meatballs and spaghetti are worth a lot in my book.
