10 will just want to leave it alone -- that spark will come back, just give it time. 5 will blame the fixture. 10 will blame the person who bought the crummy light bulb in the first place. 100 will blame the house -- bad wiring, crummy furniture -- and will demand to take all of the light bulbs to a new one. Of course, most of the posters will really wait until a few more go out -- there's more in the house, or wait until their spouses make them. Hey, as long as the computer works, we have light. ------------------ Stay Cool...

Speaking of changing light-bulbs, did yall know (of course you didn't) that I used to have a job whose sole function was changing lightbulbs? I went around all day changing bulbs that were dead. It was a summer job at University. You wouldn't believe how many people would ask, "How many college students does it take to change a light-bulb?" and then not have a punch-line. People can be so similarly annoying. As for the Simpsons, what about the episode where they give the 25 puppies to Mr. Burns and he makes a ton of money runnig them at the track. At the end, Marge freaks at the shadow of Homer hanging from the rafter in the basement, at which he replies, "Marge, you know swatting this light-bulb is the only thing that makes me happy after giving away those million dollar dogs!" (or something like that). ------------------ Rockets Draft Obligations Summary http://www.gaffordstudios.cjb.net/
How about when Homer got upset because he couldn't understand why his picture was on a box of Mr. Sparkle diswashing detergent. After seeing that the logo was a combination of a fish with big eyes and a light bulb, Bart said, "Yep. There's your answer fish-bulb." ------------------ Save Our Rockets and Comets SaveOurRockets.com
