> WINNER! of Woodcut Print!
Congratulations to tamerlane, for the winning response to our question,
How many Kossacks does it take to screw in a light bulb?
After much deliberation (all you guys were awesome), we decided that tamerlane’s submission had the perfect blend of wit and irreverance:
Three. One to argue why it’s brilliant for Obama to support screwing it in, a second to explain why it’s brilliant for Obama to refine his position to now support having it unscrewed. And a third to explain to us why we aren’t actually being screwed by Obama.”
Thank you to everyone for participating. We hope that you had as much fun as we did.
Keep fighting the good fight!

OK kidz! This small woodblock print of a steadfast PUMA girl can be YOURS! The print is on fine Japanese paper, and has been donated as a reward for the best answer to our question below:
How many Kossacks does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
So far, you guys are AWESOME! Picking a winner is going to be murder. I guess we’ll cut off on Friday, and try to figure it out on Sunday. Please check back on Monday.

all of them… have to stick their tongues in it first.

500. One to turn the bulb, and 499 to say “My thoughts exactly.”

Two.
One to read instructions & one to confirm it with George Soros.

None.
Their computer monitors light up their parents’ basements just fine.

three.
one to screw in the light bulb,
one to yell at him that he’s a racist for not buying a blacklight,
and one to go buy more cheetohs.

Two, but getting them inside the bulb is hard.

Only one, but then they have to take a vote to see if s/he should be tombstoned.

None. That’s a job for the proletariat.

I just received the print and it will earn a place of honor in my home.
I have a confession to make. Gov. Deval Patrick of Massachusetts actually wrote the winning joke — I was just “riffing” on it.

That makes David Axelrod co-owner of your print.
