LIGHTBULB CONTEST
How many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
If k gargoyles can change a light bulb, and if one more simply watches them do it, then k+1 gargoyles will have changed the light bulb.
Therefore, by induction, for all n in the positive integers, n gargoyles can change a light bulb.
Logically speaking, of course. Does this sound familiar?
Greg responds...
Not really. But consider yourself entered into the contest.

Two. One to hang from the ceiling, the other to make him angry!
Greg responds...
Okay, it goes into the contest. Thanks for playing. Results will come when I get to the end of September submissions.

"How many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb?"
A team of Disney writers, artists, animators, as well as one great executive producer to make sure it gets done.
I'm not sucking up, am I?
Greg responds...
Maybe just a little.
Okay, on file 'til I someday get to the end of September. Maybe in 2198, at this rate.

They are too busy out harassing innocent citizens who are just minding their own business and locking them up in drafty Frankenstein cells! With no TV! HEY!

My last post had nothing to do with Noel Leas' post. Purely original on my part. It seemed weird that we both thought of the same basic answer within 5 minutes though.
Greg responds...
Yep. I figured.
But incidentally, if the winner comes down to two similar answers, I'm going to chose the one that posted first, even if it was just by a second.

How many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Three-
One to say, "What would you want with a lightbulb? You've got shiny eyes,"
One to whine about turning the lightbulb into a planter,
And one and a starfleet to actually change it.

How many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Five--
A fat one to eat the original bulb,
A lanky red one to criticice the fat one's eating habits,
A large purple one to flare his eyes for light while the bulb is being changed,
A small green one to actually do the changing,
And an old brown one to yell, "SORCERY!" when the new bulb turns on.

"How many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb..."
Five
One to figure out what is wrong with the lightbulb.
One to go get a new one 'without' breaking it again.
One to figure out how to take out the bad one.
One to figure out how to put in the good one.
and One to put in the good one.

Four. Lex has to determine which tool to use, Broadway has to complain about how long he hasn't eaten, Brooklyn has to do it with so much flair he fails, and finally Angela screws it in.

To find out how many gargoyles it takes to screw in a lightbulb, I guess.
LIGHTBULB CONTEST
Poor Fang. Never even got to say the punchline...
Here's the set-up:
"Hey, Goliath, how many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb..."
Time for our next ASK GREG contest. It's simple and subjective. Finish the joke. The punchline that gives me the biggest laugh wins a prize of no real value, but hopefully of some mild interest.
A few rules:
1. Since we're giving out a prize, no anonymous entries will be accepted. I'll ask Todd to delete them before I even see them.
2. All posts must be clearly marked with "LIGHTBULB CONTEST" in capital letters at the head of the post.
3. Don't ask additional questions with your entry. In fact I'd recommend that you don't include anything that might distract me from laughing at your joke.
4. Spelling COUNTS!!!
5. You may enter as many times as you wish. But each entry MUST be posted seperately. Try to be selective and funny. BEWARE!!! If I sense that you're just taking multiple random stabs at it in order to try and win by the shotgun method, it may prejudice me against you.
6. I'm acknowledging up front that this is a completely subjective contest. You (many or even all of you) may not agree with my final choice. But the decisions of the judges (i.e. yours truly) are final.
7. We will accept entries posted before the end of September, 2001. I'll decide on the winner AFTER I've read all the September posts. (So figure on November, HOPEFULLY.)
One last bit of random incentive, if we ever do make BAD GUYS, I will give Fang the opportunity to complete his joke, using (with permission) the winning entry.
