This reminds me of whenever my engineering friends and i do pretty much anything together. One of us always seems to say "Ok, so how many engineers does it take to...(fill in whatever we are doing)". Its a spoof of those "How many blondes does it take to...), you know, one of those. Anyway, it was pretty funny the first 5,000 times. I dont think we ever changed a lightbulb though. There was one really funny one, but i dont remeber it since its finals week and i pushed everythnig else out of my brain except the stuff (some of it, anyway) i need to know for tomorrow. damn, not remembering this is going to bug me.
Awesome! Only you forgot about the guy who claims that the original poster has never even owned a lightbulb, demanding to see pictures and wattage numbers.
