@parus @johnbishop I liked reading your posts back and forth. Making an effort to find more humor in every day is a hard task sometimes for me, and the value of smiling or laughter can't be underrated. Even something simple like watching our young cat and her antics help me. The old television comedies you spoke of are good, Laugh-in, Carol Burnett shows for the physical comedy are good.

Thank you both.

@gingerw There are so many of the old comedies that are good for a chuckle. Carol Burnett is a classic and I had forgotten about Laugh-In. So long ago the Reader's Digest stated that laughter is the best medicine. The newer sitcoms are a tad too crude for my taste. And who can forget Andy Griffith and the Beverly Hillbillies??? I watch those in the morning and find myself chuckling and not left feeling my mind has been dragged through the gutter.
My input on comedy. I have some movies I also enjoy. One that comes readily to my sage mind is Turner and Hooch.
On to other things...

You are so right about humor. There is nothing like a good laugh! I love the Carol Burnett show. Tim Conway's elephant story has me laughing every time I see it!
