A Serious Talk

I just dug up my desk calendar of Classic Dave Barry I brought back from my previous job. And obviously I fell behind. Here is one from March 1:

"The other day my son and I were talking, and the subject of women came up, and I realized that it was time he and I had a Serious Talk. That's the talk every father should have with his son; and yet, far too often, we fathers avoid the subject, because it's so awkward. The subject I am referring to is: buying gifts for women. This is an area where many men do not have a clue. Exhibit A was my father, who was a very thoughtful man, but who once gave my mother, on their anniversary, the following token of his love, his commitment, and - yes - his passion for her: an electric blanket."
