Or...maybe something that says how they can't fit enough of them IN a lightbulb to have a good screw!**bg** |

Here in Alberta, I remember it was told 50 years ago -by the Hutterites about the Ukrainians and vv. (At least I assume it was the same. Punchline- one to hold the bulb and 40 to turn the house around.) |

16 Jan 08 - 06:01 PM (#2238009) Subject: RE: How many striking writers t'screw in light From: Stilly River Sage Since the creative accounting practices of these studios and producers will always come up with a zero balance when it comes time to consider paying anyone else a profit for their work, the writers had better keep twiddling their thumbs instead of screwing around with words. Okay, back to the levity. |

And how come so many people run away from accountancy to join the circus - like Les Barker. Mind you, former British Prime Minister John Major actually ran away from the circus to become an accountant.... go figure! Annie Hoo.... why can't someone pay me lots of money to make up figures? I'm good at making stuff. LTS |
