I don’t have all of the experience in the world about this topic, but like the typical male, I would like to think that I do know everything and that I am never wrong. At least that is what my wife of one year sometimes thinks. I admit it, men sometimes are the weaker sex when it comes to certain things, but I must draw the line when it comes to being reasonable.
