How many sailors. Hmmm lets see.
One to report the light bulb burned out. One to write up the 2Kilo maintenance report. One Chief to review and approve the 2Kilo One Division officer to review and approve the 2Kilo One Department Head to review and approve the 2kilo One Petty officer to assign the job. One to write up the tagout sheet and card. One Petty Officer to check the paperwork and make entry into tagout log, one seaman to run the sheet to the Chief, then to the Division Officer then to the Department Head for approval. Next you have one man hang the tag and a second to check that it is hung correctly. Turn off power. Open cover remove old light bulb, hand to safety observer to tag as possible hazmat. Insert new bulb. Replace cover. Have seaman run sheet to Petty Officer, Chief, Division Officer and Department Head to get permission to remove tag and reenergize circuit. Seaman and Petty Officer remove tag and tear in half and reenergize circuit, turn on power switch to test the light. Now return to the Petty Officer to clear the entry in the tagout log. Don't ask what happens if it's a light on the Mast. Last edited by swabjocky; 01-18-2007 at 09:54 AM.. |

Q. How many Democrats?
A. One to make a speech mourning the passing of the poor, downtrodden, and misunderstood bulb, the victim of discrimination and Republican policies. One to to brag about how they're going to change 1000 bulbs in the first 100 hours. One to blame the electric company for supplying so much electricity that the bulb buned out. One to propose that a permanent federal holiday be declared for the passing of the bulb. One to propose that all bulbs be banned because of the danger they may present if handled improperly. One to propose a new tax be levied to pay for research into premature bulb death. At least a dozen to go on talk shows and make speeches blaming the death of the bulb on the Bush Administration. BUT, none to actually change the bloody bulb! ![]()

Q. How many attorneys does it take to change a light bulb?

Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to change a light bulb?
A: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY? Because no one else in this house knows HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out. And, once they figured it out, they wouldn't be able to find the light bulbs despite the fact that they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD for the past 17 YEARS! But if they did, by some miracle of God, actually find them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair they dragged to stand on to change the STUPID light bulb would STILL BE IN THE SAME SPOT!!!!! AND UNDERNEATH IT WOULD BE THE WRAPPER THE STUPID LIGHT BULBS CAME IN!!! BECAUSE NO ONE EVER CARRIES OUT THE GARBAGE!!!! IT'S A WONDER WE HAVEN'T ALL SUFFOCATED FROM THE PILES OF GARBAGE THAT ARE A FOOT DEEP THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE HOUSE!! IT WOULD TAKE AN ARMY TO CLEAN THIS DAMNED HOUSE! I'm sorry.... What was the question?

How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb?
Charismatic: Only one. Hands already in the air. Pentecostal: Ten. One to change the bulb, and nine to pray against the spirit of darkness. Presbyterian: None. Lights will go on and off at predestined times. Catholic: None. Candles only. Baptist: At least 15. One to change the light bulb, and three committees to approve the change and decide who brings the potato salad. Episcopalian: Three. One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks, and one to talk about how much better the old bulb was. Mormon: Five. One man to change the bulb and four wives to tell him how to do it. Methodist: Undetermined. Whether your light is bright, dull, or completely burned out, you are loved. You can be a light bulb, turnip bulb, or tulip bulb. Church-wide lighting service is planned for Sunday. Bring the bulb of your choice and a covered dish. Nazarene: Six. One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy. Lutheran: None. Lutherans don't believe in change. Church of Christ: They do not use light bulbs because there is no evidence of their use in the New Testament. Unitarian: We choose not to make a statement either in favor of or against the need for a light bulb. However, if in your own journey you have found that light bulbs work for you, that is fine. You are invited to write a poem or compose a modern dance about your bulb for next Sunday's service, during which we will explore a number of light bulb traditions, including incandescent, fluorescent, three-way, long-life, and tinted, all of which are equally valid paths to luminescence. Amish: What's a light bulb?
