Laughing

The average child laughs 400 times a day; the average adult a mere 25 times daily. I think this is tragic. Laughter is a scientifically proven health-enhancer. It boosts the immune system, helps with pain, fights depression and creates great wrinkles around the eyes and mouth. Okay, perhaps that last one isn't so great, but I'd rather laugh my way to the plastic surgeon's office. Heck, who needs plastic surgery when one is happy!!!!! So, pick up the comics, watch I Love Lucy reruns, rent "Some Like it Hot", or spend time with friends who make you chuckle.

  2. Something for the girls:
    If you love something, set it free.
    If it comes back, it will always be yours. If it doesn't come back, it
    was never yours to begin with.
    But if it just sits in your living room,
    messes up your stuff, eats your food, uses your telephone, takes your
    money,
    and doesn't appear to realise that you had set it free.......
    You either married it or gave birth to it.

    Insanity is my only means of relaxation.

    Reason to smile: Every 7 minutes of every day,
    someone in an aerobics class pulls a hamstring.

    Women over 50 don't have babies because they would
    put them down and forget where they left them.

    One of life's mysteries is how a 1kg pound box of candy can make a woman
    gain 2 kgs.

    My mind not only wanders, it sometime leaves completely.

    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight shoes.

    The nice part about living in a small town is that when you don't know
    what you're doing, someone else does.

    The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight because by then your
    body and your fat are really good friends.

    Just when I was getting used to yesterday, along came today.

    Sometimes I think I understand everything, then I regain consciousness.

    I gave up jogging for my health when my thighs kept rubbing together and
    setting my pantyhose on fire.

    Amazing! You hang something in your closet for a while and it shrinks
    two sizes!

    Skinny people irritate me! Especially when they say things like,
    "You know, sometimes I just forget to eat."
    Now I've forgotten my address, my mother's maiden name, and my keys. But
    I've never forgotten to eat.
    You have to be a special kind of stupid to forget to eat.

    A friend of mine confused her valium with her birth control pills. She
    had 14 kids, but she doesn't really care.

    They keep telling us to get in touch with our bodies.
    Mine isn't all that communicative but I heard from it the other day
    after I said,
    "Body, how'd you like to go to the six o'clock class in vigorous toning?"
    Clear as a bell my body said, "listen bitch... do it and die."

    I read this article that said the typical symptoms of stress are:
    eating too much, impulse buying, and driving too fast.
    Are they kidding? That is my idea of a perfect day.

    I know what Victoria's Secret is. The secret is that nobody older than 30
    can fit into their stuff.

    If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties?
    How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a noose around your neck?
