3 Light Bulbs


I have spotted a common theme in my three attempts at light bulb jokes. As they are in three different comments on two blogs to help spot the common theme I've reproduced them below.

1. How many iPhone owning sailors does it take to change a light bulb? None! You just download the torchlight app dude!!!

2. How many luxury super yacht sailors does it take to change a light bulb? None! There are staff to do that for you.

3. How many America's Cup sailors does it take to change a light bulb? None! Everything is done by lawyers now.

See what I mean?

Actually it could be a coded eco message - those old incandescent bulbs are very inefficient compared to other technologies.

I have also found that halogen bulbs for my torchere are now hard to come by. Although halogen bulbs produce more light for the energy expended, they are still less efficient than flourescents, and they pose other environmental problems.

So when I have the money to do so, I will be replacing the lamp in the living room with one that uses flourescent bulbs. In the meantime, I'm still in the dark.
