How about a laugh, (hopefully)

Posted by Leonard @jakedduck1, Dec 31, 2018

I believe laughter is the best medicine. Laughter has actually been scientifically proven to help people with depression issues.
Let’s give it a try so we can all get happy and feel better. Many Epilepsy forums I’ve been on had joke sections. I was probably the biggest joke of all since I didn’t get a lot of the jokes. They said the jokes couldn’t be above 4th grade level for me to understand them so my jokes may be rather simplistic but let’s give it a try.
Have a lovely day everyone,
Jake

I have never posted to this before but I can't resist today.

Researchers for the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority found over 200 dead crows near greater Boston recently, and there was concern that they may have died from avian flu. A bird pathologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to everyone's relief, confirmed the problem was definitely not avian flu.
The cause of death appeared to be vehicular impacts.

However, during the detailed analysis, it was noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the bird's beaks and claws. By analyzing these paint residues it was determined that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with trucks, while only 2% were killed by an impact with a car.
MTA then hired an ornithological behaviorist to determine if there was a cause for the disproportionate percentages of truck kills versus car kills.
The ornithological behaviorist very quickly determined the cause: When crows eat road kill, they always have a look-out crow in a nearby tree to warn of impending danger. They discovered that while all the lookout crows could shout "Cah", not a single one could shout "Truck"

It's better if you don't know in advance that it's a joke. I had my husband and sister both going when I put it in an email as if it was true. My daughter was upset with me because she likes crows and says they're smart. I retorted, but they couldn't say "truck"!

@contentandwell When first reading your post I was clutching my pearls! I love crows too and was thinking, “Why is this under, “laughter”?” Then I groaned when reading the punch line! It’s a great joke! LOL

I read it to my husband in a deeply serious manner. I could see his wheels turning as to why the proportion of truck vs auto was so high; more surface area to hit, higher, etc.. giggle. Then I read the last line. HAHAHA. We both just busted out laughing! I told him there was nothing like a good ‘murder’ mystery, which brought on more chuckles. Enjoy the day!

@contentandwell, What a great post! Not everyone gets such an "impact" from their jokes!

Speaking of crows,
We were at the National Cemetery in San Francisco when this guy mistook me for a statue.
