| You forgot to mention 50 people posting arguements on who built the biggest light bulb and the WRBA to investigate their claims.
TV shows like "simply bulbing" and "the bulbing edge" and who would not watch "wisconsins bulbs and lamps"? "pete, ptete, that's a bright lite pete! "that's a bulbasaurous!" "holy filamnents!" Good stuff. |
