March 19: National Let's Laugh Day

[JaniceSW]

Yep, now they have a day for laughter.  Well, it's certainly better than watching the news.  Just think...laughter has been linked to health benefits ranging from improved blood flow to lowering levels of inflammation. Dr. Lee Burk, an associate professor at Loma Linda University in California, states that laughter may help keep the body healthy as much as proper diet and exercise.  So have a good gut laugh.  As often as possible.  And on March 19, watch a movie that is known for being funny or that always makes you laugh.  I hope to be laughing so hard I have tears running down my face.  Any movie suggestions?

I sometimes watch something like The Big Bang Theory and that gets me laughing.

Funny Movies:
Mr. Bean's Vacation (hysterical!)
Curious George Movie
Groundhog Day (a little out of season, but it's funny)
Any Which Way You Can and Any Which Way But Loose (action and comedy at the same time - really interesting)
The Cat in the Hat movie
Charlie Brown movies
How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Another positive thread in the Fusion Cash forum - this month is really off to a great start!

Years ago, a FC user named noirlupe posted this - it's mildly funny.

I have a friend that always seems to know when I need a good laugh,  thought I would share.
A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.

'Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday.'

Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.

Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral..

The frog says, 'Sure. I have this,' and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.

Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office.

She finds the manager and says, 'There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral.'

She holds up the tiny pink elephant. 'I mean, what in the world is this?'

The bank manager looks back at her and says...

'It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan, His old man's a Rolling Stone.'

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that.

Laughter is good for the soul and it's always better that crying.  It also relieves stress.
