WRITERS AND LIGHT BULBS
If you are a writer, or if you know a few writers, you know that it can be a strange lifestyle. You also know you can't write if you don't have sense of humor. So, for a change of pace, we offer you some funnies about writers and lightbulbs we have discovered on the Internet.

A: We are always off topic, we skip around, mix it up, keep things interesting.
Z: This is interesting?
A: (Looks offended, since it was her idea) Of course it is, it's humorous.
Z: Whatever you say, Gracie.
A: Who's Gracie
Z: (Rolls eyes) George Burms and Gracie? Hmmm, you remember back in the old days.
A: (Feigns ignorance) Moi? I'm not THAT old.
Z: And away we go...(said in a Jackie Glenson accent, showing Zi's full age)
