Must just be you. These already went over the net and everyone got sick
of them. If there's nothing in the 'welcome to the net' stuff that you
should have read pefore posting that says 'no more light bulb jokes'
(or YALBJ, as they were known) then there should be. (confused? good)

Unfortunately, this is most likely true, since most old-timers already
know (against their will) all LBJs ever posted.

Any New Yorker would tell you (in a rude manner, no doubt) that it was
none of your fu**ing business.

No they are not!!

No comment. :-)

Seriously, I don't mean any offense or personal slur, but this LBJ (light
bulb joke) stuff is as old as the net and very few people would like to see
it again.

Now for the obligitory joke as a reward (?) for those who read all this:

see next article.
