Does anyone actually read the directions...........first?

I must admit that i have joined that group of people that play first and read the directions, later. i am talking about my new cellphone. to some people, a new cellphone is like a new toy. you think you know everything, but soon discover you know nothing. after several negative attempts to establish new settings in my new cellphone, my wife then brought me the book and said, “here, professor, look it up”. most men hate to admit defeat, but here i am with a dumbfounded look on my face, flipping through the book, looking for “new settings”. am i alone in this venture or is the norm for men who sometimes think they “know it all”?
