    In the mens toilet here at Tangler there is a blown light bulb. We havne't changed it for a week. It isn't a normal globe but regardless, it made me smile to think about 'how many Tanglers does it take to change a light bulb?" The answer is "We're not sure, but let's talk about it and work it out - here's the group URL...."

    2007-07-03 23:07:26.0

    hehehe I like this:

    Q:  How many economists does it take to screw in a light bulb?
    A:  None.  If the light bulb really needed changing, market forces
        would have already caused it to happen.
    A:  Two. One to assume the ladder and one to change the bulb.
    A:  Two. One to assume the latter (a pun) and change the bulb.
    A:  None. If the government would just leave it alone, it would screw
        itself in.
