How To: Change a flat tire

How To is a new feature for SG. It's not going to have any regularity to it. We just figured since we're Guys, we know how to do everything, or at least think we do. So enjoy, and as always, we would love to hear feedback.

1) Pull over. You hear your tire pop, or perhaps you don't. You just notice your car is suddenly tipping to one side. Better check it out. If you are in a bad neighborhood, it might be a better idea to ride the rims to a gas station. If you pull over, examine all of the tires closely. The one you need to change is probably the one without air.

2) Get out the tools. Time to get to work. Open your trunk, find the spare tire and a wrench. IF you don't have those. Take out your cell phone and call a tow truck.

3) Look as butch as possible. This applies to both women and men. When you're changing a tire, you need to look as manly as possible. Puff out your shoulders, look mean, then attack the tire. Use the wrench to unscrew the doohickeys from the wheel. While you are doing this, it is advisable to lie down partially in the street. This will call the attention of passing drivers to your macho act, thus keeping you safe.

4) Take the tire off. Really, if you don't get this one, you have no business changing a tire.

5) Curse. It is at this point you should realize you should have also had a jack to lift your car up. You have just messed up your car. Since you don't have a jack, it's time to have some Jack.
