Forum decorum...

1 moderator to lock the light bulb thread.

1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again.

 

and 1 who says : why don't we talk about it at a cosy candle light

 

LOL ... We've seen similar incidents here (true of most forums)

 

You forgot to condemn Ben Franklin for flying his kite in that storm (it lead to the light bulb). You also forgot to blame Thomas Edison for inventing the damn thing in the first place.

Has anyone seen my lighter, the oil lamps need to be lit.

Easiest way to avoid the problem is to run a defilamentation scan (similar to a defrag or dehag) 3 times a day or more often if necessary.

Play on, big ed

 

Ha! You're a bit of a 'wag' Ed! I think it's time you 'dewagged'. You should 'dewag' regularly so your 'wagmentation' never gets above 1%!!

 

You both should team up and go on the road!! I am enjoying your obvious respect and admiration for each other, or maybe that's because I have just been detagged, is that a detagmentation, detmentation, or just a mental fragment of my wagmentation after the stress of a defilamentation scan??

Help guys, I'm coming to pieces here!!

 

Well Marja, Ed and I should be able to 'milk' this one for all it's worth. I've just been Googling for all words rhyming with frag/hag/wag, and I think we should be right until Easter!

 

So, should I buy my tickets now! Before the rush??

(I still haven't gotten used to your new bald hair do, the ears are kinda cute tho!! )

 

We'll be here for three shows daily!

 

Woo-Hooo!!

 

We have the same committee who took care of the light bulb situation looking into this, should have a definitive answer, after exhausting testing in about a year.

Thanks
wildman

 

I think we should look extensively into the virtues of glue as opposed to certain types of tape and vice versa before jumping so quickly (1 year ) to any hasty conclusions as to what method would be best for re-assembling Marja.

 

Might just be best to wrap her in paper mache

 

Hmmm perhaps we should set up another committee in order to be sure this is the proper forum in which to discuss re-assembly of Marja.

I also think that cybernetics should be fully investigated.

 

Umm...The reassembly of Marja. Sounds sorta like something that happened to Acadia once. Ummm...Let's see? How's Marja AI Unit 001 for her new designation?

 

You guys have fun now, y'hear?

 

Just as I figured "All defragmentation, defenestration, wagmentation, and braggadocchio with sprinkles!! At this rate, I can build my own cybernetic NO 26 electrified Power B** Kickin', Geek-Pounding Power Boots."

Hmmmm, I think I will, then we will see if they can even fix the fan before it gets hit!!

Guess Who

 

it sounds as if you have a plan, if I were those boys I would be watching my backside

back at ya Big Guy!

 

It's very distressing that all of you are making fun of a very serious problem! With all of the dim bulbs around the world that need attention, present company excepted, everyone should be offering constructive suggestions to solve this very critical situation. But no! All you do is Mock...Mock...Mock!

One of Murphy's Laws covers this topic very well. "A bird in the hand is better than two overhead."

Play on, big ed

 

I believe this is what she has already constructed the rest should really be something

that's hardware, that's hardware

Mods, this should be moved to another forum-section

 

I did add a few rhinestones, feathers, oh and heels!!

There are some strategic razors, stars, a couple of titanium hooks,(global ones) think I'll go shopping later, a girl can NEVER be too careful when going up against crazed geeks with collating cerebellums randomizing information non-synchronously after just having been just diagnosed with Schottky scrolling segmentation.

I mean, who knew?? Yes, those boots ARE made for more than WALKING!!

(Note: BoomBox rendition of Boots, a big box of fireworks for celebration, hmmmm....Oh yeah some WD30..my elbow is creaking.....
