Drawing for 76 Bicentennial Proof Set

Hi everyone. I'm new to the message boards, and having a great time! To introduce myself and show my appreciation, I'm going to give away a 1976 Bicentennial Proof Set (3 coins) in it's original mint packaging. The drawing will be completely random, but in order to enter, you have to tell me a light bulb joke (that hasn't already been posted). Drawing will take place Tuesday night the 24th at 6:00 PM. JohnZ, collector of rare coins and light bulb jokes.

We ARE watching you.

    How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb?

    Charismatic: Only one. Hands already in the air.

    Pentecostals: Ten. One to change the bulb, and nine to pray against the spirit of darkness.

    Presbyterians: None. Lights will go on and off at predestined times.

    Roman Catholic: None. Candles only.

    Baptists: At least 15. One to change the light bulb, and three committees to approve the change and decide who brings the potato salad.

    Episcopalians: Three. One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks and one to talk about how much better the old one was.



    Unitarians: We choose not to make a statement either in favor of or against the need for a light bulb. However, if in your own journey you have found that light bulbs work for you, that is fine. You are invited to write a poem or compose a modern dance about your light bulb for the next Sunday service, in which we will explore a number of light bulb traditions including incandescent, fluorescent, three-way, long-life and tinted, all of which are equally valid paths to luminescence.

    Methodists: Undetermined. Whether your light is bright, dull, or completely out, you are loved. You can be a light bulb, turnip bulb, or tulip bulb. Church-wide lighting service is planned for Sunday. Bring bulb of your choice and a covered dish.

    Nazarene: Six. One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy.

    Lutherans: None. Lutherans don't believe in change.

    Amish: What's a light bulb?

    Remember its just a joke and i have no views or believe in any of these answersimage..........Isnt there always a disclaimer in life?

    Q-How many French diplomats does it take to change a lightbulb?



    A-None. The lightbulb should be given a little more time to begin complying with the previous 14 resolutions we have passed, ordering the lightbulb to again illuminate. No action to directly change the lightbulb will be supported and the French diplomats will exercise a veto should anyone attempt to change it.

    As an interested bystander only, I am wondering why the winner of this "giveaway" never received the winning coin set? Since the winner was one of our younger numismatic pals, I would suggest that the originator of this giveaway contact him and explain the situation. CM
