Laughter

Laughter is the best medicine. It is my favorite thing in the world. It’s one reason that I love Chris. He and I can easily make each other laugh and we also have the same sense of humor.

I really enjoy making people laugh. I have a co-worker that whenever she is mad, aggrivated or upset in anyway I can make her laugh. It's just a gift that I have. I'm no Dane Cook or Jim Gaffigan. I love people who have a very dry/witty sense of humor. People who don't think they're funny are the best.

I remember when I was in 4th grade, I would sit and think of jokes and tell them to my grandfather, Poppa. I made up one that I thought was so awesome so I decided to try it out. So, next time I saw him, I said, "Hey Poppa! What is George Washington's favorite flavor of Kool-Aid" and he wouldn't know. I would yell back "CHERRY!!". He would chuckle and then "boo" me. Yes, my own grandfather "boo'd" me. I thought that he thought it was funny. My brother probably said it was stupid but I thought it was genius!! Why? Well duh! George Washington chopped down the cherry tree! He liked cherry Kool-Aid! Ok, not funny at all. In fact, it is kind of dumb. But at the age of 8 (or whatever age a 4th grader is), all I knew is that it made him kind of chuckle. Not laugh, but chuckle. From that moment on, whenever I saw my grandfather on, he would ask if I had made up any more jokes. I would say "No" and then tell him the GW one. Next time I see him, I'll ask him if he remembers that. He's 92, so if he doesn't, I won't hold it against him.

Lately, I’ve been having brain farts. Searching for a subject to write about. Just nothing. I just decided that from time to time, I’m going to post some clips of things that make me laugh. So here's one:
