How many Newfoundlander's does it take to change a lightbulb...sorry...dark-sucker?

Three...one to hold the dark-sucker, while the other two pick-up and turn the chair he's standing on. :lol: :lol:
 
NOW C'MON.................Exactly how much dark do you really think those little bulbs could suck?????

Sheshhhhhhhhh

It should be pretty obvious they can't possibly be show quality suckers.

Hey now, don't be picking on the tinies!! It's all in the proportion...not just size! I have seen a LOT of tiny, wee bulbs that really sucked; :lol: and some big ungainly ones that couldn't suck the dark out of a closet!

I'm late here too but I just wanted to say....

Liz.....I think your bulb might not look so short and "bulbous" if you would get down on it's level to take the photos.

I have been considering opening my home to needy bulbs...they are more than welcome here; where they can come in and light up MY life...
Also, on the rescue aspect of this.......I too am willing to open my home to any "rescues" out there BUT they must be breedable females.

Rolling on the floor laughing at Sue C's response to my skepticism.

But really......how much could something so tiny suck up??? Kinda like which holds more...a pint jar or a guart jar?

Ummmmm, wonder where all that dark goes once it's sucked up. Is it stored inside?

The little tiny ones are super absorbent. They actually are good at compressing the darkness. From the energy that is created by the compression treatment, they are able to gather more darkness. It is a somewhat self renewing treatment.

As far as where the darkness goes once it is collected, it is sold on Ebay to the highest bidder.

OK. How does everyone know so much about the dark suckers sucking process when none of us knew they were suckers to begin with?

I need references as to where you get your expertise from :bgrin .

Well...really, (folds arms in a huff) how difficult can it BE, to raise, train and show dark-suckers??

OK, I had to do this and Reble brought this back to me. Reble has asked about efficient bulbs so I thought I'd bring this back and refer her to this post. (it's over 6 months but still brought back to life).

:bgrin :bgrin :bgrin :bgrin

You all can thank me later.

Oh I remember this! It was wonderful! Lord knows we could all use some laughs, thanks for bumping this one up, the newbies will love it.
 
you're right Debs the newbies do love it!!

but ok i guess i am not the brightest bulb in the box because i have been reading and reading (and laughing and laughing) and could not BELIEVE i missed this over the last few weeks... it took me to [SIZE=18pt]page 12[/SIZE] to realize it was [SIZE=24pt]2006!!![/SIZE]

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

too funny because i started reading just before i left work... it reminded me to pick up some light bulbs when i stopped at the store on the way home.

by the way from way back, someone asked about the pink ones... those are for NIGHT LIGHTS

[SIZE=14pt]i am new to bulbs but have a question? i have a strand that i got 2 Christmas' ago or should i say holidays ago, anyway i had them on my Christmas tree...i mean holiday bush, (sorry if i offended anyone) and a few went out and now have black marks inside them. i would have taken pictures but the battery is dead in my camera i will post them later. my question is has anyone had this happen and if so how did you handle it? did you change them or haul them to the nearest specialist? i live hours from the nearest place that deals w/ just bulbs and i don't know how they would handle the trip. my neighbors sister is a bulb tech so she came over but i just am not sure what the right thing to do is. sorry this is so long, thanks in advance for any help

PLEASE STOP! What about the little bulbs???

What about all those poor little bulbs being brought into this world, without fancy brand names, no gaurenetees, no decent sockets! What about them?

The only time anyone cares about the little ones is at Christmas time. The rest of the time, they are stuck in storage, never used except once a year, then discarded!

This is so unfair!

You guys that are so high and mighty with your big time brand name big bulbs......... :xkngt: poop on you

All you do is brag about how many watts your bulbs have. You're just a bunch of big show offs.

I demand equality for the little bulbs.

They deserve love too!
 
Well.. we sure aren't a bunch of "dim bulbs" now, are we? :aktion033: This is a very illuminating thread, that's for sure...

Marty, I think someone did bring up the topic of dwarf bulbs in these 14 pages somewhere, but they are another topic all together and should have their own thread. Someone could start a little bulb rescue.
