Found this in a travel forum thought it might amuse here
How many subscribers to an online message board does it take to change a light bulb?

Answers:

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

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"

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

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

4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ

44 to ask what is a "FAQ"

2 to post reasons why the light bulb burning out is the result of a government conspiracy.

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

43 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs"

1 lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again

5 to say "thank you"

LOL
can i be 1 of the 7 that point out the dangers of changing said lightbulb .
1;be sure not to change to soon as could still be HOT to touch , resulting in burnt fingers
2;be sure to switch of at wall as putting in new light bulb whilst switch still in on position could startle you when bulb lights up resulting in you falling from chair

sure we will get 1 of the 41 now as my spelling must be wrong ?
and
1 of the 6..... now is it lightbulb or lightbulb ??

best post ive seen for a long time PandT

I know this is a travel forum but what did this have to do with Egypt?

Very funny by the way!

Hi lexxweb We agree It has nothing to do with travel in Egypt at all. Its about people who post on message boards. I do not think the moderator looks on here any more, if he did he would have deleated all those silly happy holiday types postings. Lets try putting some swear words on see if they get deleated ......bottom burp ......there lets see what happens.

For a good travel forum try Lonely Planet's for laughs come here.

Sorry to offend Ayisha. But in the interest of scientific experiments, we have to make sacrifices. We promise no more naughty words.
