Congratulations, you've just passed your first phase of Jiffy Lube
orientation, remember, you're only allowed 4 loose/stripped drain plugs,
3 empty oil pans, 3 double fills (you get 4 of these if actually changed
the filter on any 1) and only 3 more double gaskets out the door this
week, we'll start docking your pay after that.  ;-)

The difficulty you had removing the old filter was probably because
during the previous filter change the gasket wasn't coated with oil.
