I’m not even sure that’s a real punchline. If it is, I don’t remember the joke. When I said I didn’t recognize a lot of the punchlines, I meant it. Those are pretty much the only ones I know. 😛 ---

People who live in grass houses shouldn’t stow thrones. I don’t know, but my butt is sore. I sure as hell didn’t ask for a 1 foot pianist. What, you’ve got a golf course in there? goodnight, Gracie. as the actress said to the bishop. Ah, but does the lightbulb want to change? none, they just sit around hoping it’ll come back on. One to screw it in and one to screw it up. One to change it and two to argue about whether the new one is as good as the old one was. Unity. One to change it and 399 to blow up the ship from shame. None - that’s a hardware problem. Fish. Information available on a “need to know” basis only. One to screw it in, and one to stab the other in the back and take all of the credit. One, but at the same time three. How many can you pay? ---
