 Why Laugh
"You spend your whole life biting your tongue. You're married, you're biting your tongue. You go to work, you're biting your tongue. So it's nice to go someplace to see some guys and women exercise free speech. And if it's funny, even better." -- Chris Rock
Healthy, non-ridiculing and connecting laughter provides physiological, psychological and spiritual benefits you probably never realized or imagined.
We are born with the gift of laughter -it's being serious that we learn.
Learn to laugh and live, all over again!!!
Laughter Is The Best Medicine

- The Facts: -
Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it...don't waste
them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart
will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life
of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.
Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and
corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an
efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain?
Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy
vegetable).And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily
allowance of vegetable products.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine. That
means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the
goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have a body and you have body fat, your ratio is one to
one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise
program?
A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!!. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In
fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for
you?
Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the
middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should
only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLOOO.... Cocoa beans ... another vegetable!!! It's
the best feel-good food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.
Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!
Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about
food and diets.
Remember, "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave
with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved
body,
But rather to skid in sideways
- Chardonnay in one hand and chocolate
covered strawberries in the other
- body thoroughly used up, totally worn
out,
Screaming - "YAA HOO!!! What a Ride!"!!!
JOKES
Fifteen days ago, I read that smoking can kill you;
The next day I stopped smoking.
Twelve days ago, I read that too much red meat can kill you;
The next day I stopped eating red meat..
Eight days ago, I read that drinking can kill you;
The next day I stopped drinking.
Yesterday, I read that having sex can kill you;
This morning I stopped reading.
An American tourist goes on a trip to China. While in
China, he is very sexually promiscuous and does not take
any precautions. A week after arriving back home he
awakens one morning to find his penis covered with
bright green and purple spots. Horrified, he immediately
goes to see his doctor.
The doctor, never having seen anything like this before,
orders some tests and tells the man to return in a two
days for the results. The man returns a couple of days
later and the doctor says, "I've got bad news for you.
You've contracted Mongolian VD. It's very rare and
almost unheard of here. We know very little about it."
The man looks a little relieved and says, "Well, give me
a shot or something and fix me up doc."
The doctor answers, "I'm sorry, there's no known cure
other than to amputate your penis."
The man screams in horror, "Oh no! I want a second
opinion!"
The doctor replies, "Well it's your choice. Go ahead if
you want, but surgery is your only choice."
The next day, the man seeks out a Chinese doctor,
figuring that he'll know more about the disease. The
Chinese doctor examines his penis and proclaims, "Ah yes,
Mongolian VD. Very rare disease."
The guy says to the doctor, "Yeah, yeah, I already know
that, but what can you do? My American doctor wants to
operate and amputate my penis!"
The Chinese doctor shakes his head and laughs, "Stupid
American doctor! American doctor, always want to operate.
Make more money, that way."
"Then there's no need to operate? Oh, thank God!" the
man replies.
"Yes!" says the Chinese doctor, "You no worry!
Wait two weeks, it fall off by itself!"
