E-Humor

Thought maybe the „joy of sharks“ group needs a bit of humor. Copied this from another list, with apologies to those who’ve seen it before. Off topic (or substitute „chum white sharks“ for „change the light bulb“ to satisfy content requirements) I know. Sorry. Like others, I’ll never do it again. Anyway...

„Question: How many mailing list members does it take to change a light bulb?“

„Answer: 422. One to change the light bulb and to post to the list that the light bulb has been changed; 14 to share similar experiences; 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; 156 to write to the list administrator complaining about the light bulb discussion and its inappropriateness to this mail list; 111 to defend the posting to this list saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to the mail list; 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 to post corrected URL’s; 6 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy. Oh yeah, and 6 to post to the list that the guy who sent the light bulb joke has not got his arithmetic correct and that it only takes 416 list members to change a light bulb."
