That's most unfortunately because humor and
laughter are very good for the brain. If you can laugh at yourself, you carry
an unending supply of humor with you every day⸺as I do. For example,
today at noon I was in an organization that had a noon lunch for one of the
executives. During lunch, one of the senior executives, referred to as
"the birthday boy," was asked, "What is your earliest memory of
a joke?" Interesting question. The "birthday boy" said that when
he was 10 years old he heard a man say something that was clever and funny—and although
he only heard it once, the birthday boy still remembers is. It went like this
“Ladies and gentlemen, hobos and tramps,
cross-eyed mosquitoes, and bowlegged ants. Early one morning, in the middle of
the night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other,
drew a sword and shot each other An old deaf policeman heard the noise and came
over and killed the two dead boys. Now, if you don't believe my story is true,
just ask the blind man, because he saw it, too . . ."
I am still laughing!
Stay alert, and choose to laugh. It pays huge dividends!
