"But some bulbs are not as bright as others....."
guess I've been called out haha! When I started reading this thread I thought "WTF?? Oh its a JOKE!"
ok so now I'm cool with it. Did I read anywhere about how many bottles of Cruzan was consumed while changing lightbulbs??
With all the power outages around here, who needs a light bulb?
RL
I KNOW I couldn't have rendered him speechless. A man of few words, but zingers when they come....PROMO...come back to us....
It's okay Becky, you can always play on a Roller Derby team.
I had a light bulb go off in my head this morning.
Wouldn't it be great if Bill O'Reilly and Ann Coulter married each other, and moved to
another country??!
OK OK. I felt my ears ringing. And I still have my teeth, cowboy hat, and slip slops! As for light bulbs, I only have one joke to offer:
How many men does it take to screw in a light bulb?
One. One to hold the bulb in place and wait for the world to revolve around them!!
Check out the "other" forum :

I was TOTALLY busted by ODH (Old Deckhand a.k.a. my hubby) on the topic of how to get my next trip planned to STT...
OOPS!
Well...did he go for it?
My advice to LLBL is to never attempt turning on a light bulb while in the swimming pool.
You may however, turn on your ODH there, anytime you want.
Chris - Not that I know of! I let him have a "family pass" to go out last night with the boys. Haven't had a chance to talk about it. Something tells me......no. Or if it does happen, it will be very, very last minute.
Ha ha Dream Conch - - you are quite the funny one....
...even better if Michael Moore married Rosie O'Donnell and THEY moved to another country.
hmmm, what a pair that would make.
Suzette,
What if you turned on a light bulb, and nobody came??
STTRes,
That English thing you do, you know looking down your nose, reminds me of being on top
of a really steep ski slope, with my friends waiting at the bottom yelling for me to hurry up!
Promo must be mad at me.
OK, I came on a little strong....forgive me? I KNOW you are out there somewhere!
Ron,
We have 12volt lighting- different light bulbs and we don't need WAPA!!!!
Promo's okay, he's rearranging the palm tree in his phone booth so, he can see to work.
The fronds were blocking out the overhead light, and in the way of the file cabinet drawers where he keeps
the carbon credit vouchers.
I want to know what kind of light bulb did they change? Was it incandescent, Halogen, or the new fluorescent ones that save energy.
My wife would probably ask if it worked after I had "fixed" it.
This is all very amusing.
Well, LLBL, at least he came forward to show that he was reading the forum before anything worse had come up!
Boy, am I embarassed that Blu showed up.....
I broke a light bulb, and she caught me sweeping it under the rug!!
Hey Promo,
I'll be going to New Mexico for the weekend, I'll look around for some good Mexican food there. Although, it might be too far for you to drive.
Adios.
Blu,
I'm sorry and I'll never do it again.
