-- How many
computer journalists
-- does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Five-one to write a review of all the existing light bulbs so
you can decide which one to buy, another one to write a
remarkably similar one in another magazine the next month, a
third to have a big one come out on glossy paper two months
later that is by then completely out of date, a fourth to hint
in his/her column that a completely new and updated bulb is
coming out, and the fifth to report a rumor that that new bulb
is shipping with a virus.
How many
rec.humor readers
-- does it take to change a light bulb?
100-one to announce that it burned out, 10 to agree, 20
to come running in with new light bulbs and screw them
in, 9 to screw them in and leave the old bulb in, 10 to
ask for a videotape of the screwing, another one to come
in a few minutes later and notice the bulb went out
again and start the whole process all over again....
