Joking

There's a joke I like to tell myself that always makes me laugh.

How many writers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

10.

1 to screw in the lightbulb and nine to watch and think "I could have done that."

Funny or not, I appreciate the reminder that thought is impotent without action. Now I will get back to work.

This made me laugh....very hard. Admittedly, I caught myself thinking in the "I could have done that" mode for a moment at church yesterday. I suppose that's the only time when saying it will be worse than in a dark room full of dramatic persons whose vocabularies are a little too burgeoning.
