    Default Missing---Joke Forum, so I'll just start a thread.

    Speaking of Threads.................... This is old, yet still relevant. And yes, you can find many of MY posts that fit right in.

    HOW MANY GROUP POSTERS DOES IT TAKE TO CHANGE A LIGHT BULB?

    1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed

    14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently

    7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs

    27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs

    53 to flame the spell checkers

    41 to correct spelling/grammar flames

    6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ...

    another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive

    2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"

    15 know-it-alls who claim *they* were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct

    156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of their "acceptable use policy"
    109 to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb group

    203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and lightbulb group about changing light bulbs be stopped

    111 to defend the posting to this group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts *are* relevant to this group

    306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty

    27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs

    14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's

    3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group

    33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"

    12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy

    19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three"

    4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ

    44 to ask what is a "FAQ"

    4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

    143 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"

    I think that you might have forgotten about the 18 folks with horror stories about how a light bulb changing went horribly wrong and they ended up in an ambulance...

    Default *HIS AND HER DIARY FOR THE SAME DAY*

    *Her Diary:*
    Tonight, I thought
    my husband was acting weird. We had
    made plans to meet at a nice restaurant
    for dinner. I was
    shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was
    upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no
    comment on it.
    Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested
    that we go somewhere quiet so we
    could talk. He agreed,
    but he didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong;
    he
    said, 'Nothing.' I asked him if it was my fault that he was
    upset. He
    said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do
    with me, and not to worry
    about it.
    On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled
    slightly,
    and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior; I don't
    know why
    he didn't say, 'I love you, too.'
    When we got home, I felt as if I had lost
    him completely, as
    if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just
    sat
    there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem
    distant and
    absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I
    decided to go to bed. About 15
    minutes later, he came to
    bed. But I still felt that he was distracted, and
    his thoughts
    were somewhere else. He fell asleep -- I cried.
    I don't know
    what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts
    are with someone else. My life
    is a disaster.


    *His Diary:*
    Bike wouldn't start; can't figure out
    why.

    Three

    women die together in an

    accident

    And go to

    heaven.


    When

    they get there, St. Peter says,

    'We only

    have one rule here
    in heaven:

    Don't step
    on the
    ducks!'

    So they enter heaven,

    and sure enough,

    There are
    ducks all over the
    place.

    It is
    almost impossible not
    to step on a
    duck,


    And
    although they try their
    best to avoid
    them,


    The first
    woman accidentally
    steps on one.

    Along comes St.. Peter with the ugliest
    man she ever saw.


    St. Peter
    chains them
    together and
    says,

    'Your
    punishment for stepping
    on a duck is
    to
    Spend
    eternity chained to
    this ugly
    man!'

    The next
    day,


    The second
    woman steps
    accidentally on a
    duck


    And along
    comes St. Peter,
    Who doesn't
    miss a thing.

    With him is
    another extremely
    ugly man.

    He chains
    them together

    With the
    same admonishment as
    for the first woman.

    The third woman has observed all this
    and,


    Not wanting
    to be chained


    For all
    eternity to an ugly
    man, is

    very,

    VERY

    careful where she
    steps.

    She manages
    to go months


    Without
    stepping on any
    ducks,

    But


    One day
    St.Peter comes up to
    her


    With the
    most handsome man
    she has ever laid eyes
    on

    ..... Very
    tall, long
    eyelashes,
    muscular.




    St.

    Peter chains them together without saying a

    word.

    The happy woman

    says,

    'I wonder
    what I did to
    deserve being
    Chained to
    you for all of
    eternity?'

    The guy

    says,

    'I don't
    know about you,
    But I
    stepped on a
    Duck.

    A pastor looked out his window Sunday morning; the sun was up, no clouds, not too warm.....Hmmmm.
    He called his assistant and told him to take care of the services, then went to a golf course many miles away.
    He teed off and got a hole in one, aced the second hole, and kept going through all the rest.
    St. Peter was watching all this, and asked God, "why are you doing this? This guy walked out on his responsibilites today, and doesn't deserve it."
    God asked him "who is he going to tell?"

    bad Joke, i know. Had to get it out of my head.
    Outside of the boxing gym, there is a long queue of people waiting to meet the newest heavyweight champion. And each, in turn is taken away on a stretcher after the champion hits them with an upper cut or a jab. Curious as to what is going on, Joe gets in line. Finally he gets to the front and takes his turn with the champion. Before the champ can hit him he says, "hey, I've stood in this line for almost an hour now, and all I've seen you do is hit people. What's going on here." The champ replies, "Son, didn't you know? This is the punchline."

    Never judge someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. That way they are a mile away and shoeless!

    Default Happy New Year!

    I would like to share an experience with you about drinking and driving.

    As you well know, some of us have been known to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from the occasional social session over the years.

    A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends and had a few too many beers and some rather nice wine.

    Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before - I took a bus home. I arrived back safely and without incident which was a real surprise since I had never driven a bus before and am not sure where I got this one.



    HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    As you know, some of us have been known to "tipple" during this time of the year. Well, last night it happened to me.

    Being New Years Eve, I went out for a few drinks with some friends and had way too much very nice red wine. Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before - I took a bus home.

    I arrived home safely and without incident, which was a real surprise, as I have never driven a bus before and am not sure where I got this one.

    I don't procrastinate; there's plenty of time to do that later!
