LIFT THE CLOUD TIME FOR COMIC RELIEF
The forum seems to have a black cloud hanging over it these days. I don't know if it is the winter doldums, holidays being over or if as one of our astute friends said, "we've all hit a pothole".
So many of us are in the middle of treatments and I guess we are feeling pretty bad.
Why don't we try to fix those bumps in the road with some comedy.
I would like everyone to put a link to some short funny video you have and we can all look at them, laugh and talk about them like we all just went to a bunch of movies together.
This first one is dedicated to Marty and all of you wonderfully strong women and I think it should be the forum anthem! In keeping with the comedy theme I am putting this version and good for the next generation!!!
And no I wouldn't let my baby do that but it is still funny. (You'll see)

Really, Ellen Degeneres is hilarious; my 16 year old loves her humor. I bought the collection for xmas: "Here and Now" (funniest one); "The Beginning" (o.k., but not as funny as the Here and Now). I'd buy you all a CD if I could. Get this - we watched it xmas day and my HUSBAND was laughing and he never laughs (yeah, lots of fun ..... won't go there now and ruin our laughter)!
Check it out though; i think you can just buy the Here and Now and you could watch it over and over and still laugh - I did!
Good idea, Jan ....... the laugh of the day. I know you haven't been feeling well at all lately and it was very energetic of you to get this going. I truly hope you are on an uphill climb!!
Best......... Elizabeth

OMG!! I am still rolling! Thanks so much guys that is just what I needed today! I have watched the Landlord video 3 times now and still cannot quit laughing. As far as a joke of the day? I have heard so many funny jokes but I am one of those who cannot remember it the next day for anything. But i still look forward to it. Chris
Thanks Marty. I will start the joke of the day thread tomorrow before i go to chemo so y'all start thinking of some good ones, cause I'm gonna check when I get home.
shopping at WalMart several years ago, had dressed for a quick trip, left off the underwear and donned slacks and my Depends, belt broke and Depends slid down the pants leg to the floor, child with mother behind me yelled, look Mommy, that lady lost her diaper. Red faced I scooped it up, jammed it in my purse and continued shopping, at the check stand had to remove it to get to my wallet, I thought then, will it never end?, but no it didn't, on way out of store, I had forgot to close clasp on purse, it fell over and there lay the Depends for all to see on top of my purchases. Only saving gerace for me was that it was a clean one.
Now those were what my little sister refers to as "milk coming out your nose funny".
Thank you so much!!!!!!! I can't wait for Cory to get home and read those.
I have my own nut story.
Several years ago my teenage daughters and I went to Kroger's for our pre holiday baking supplies and I was looking for a variety of nuts. They only had the ones in bags and I wanted the ones you scoop yourself and buy by the pound. I looked all over and after not finding any I turned to a teenage boy working in the produce dept. and said, "Excuse me, do you have loose nuts." My daughters were like "MOM!!", the boy turned fire engine red, EVERYONE in ear shot was laughing hysterically and when I finally caught on I just slunked away. Thanksgiving can't roll around without that story being told.
So Marty, do you want to start the joke a day post or do you want me to cause I think it is a good idea.

Jan, girl, you made me laugh hysterically on a yukky day! I never did like "I am Woman," but certainly do now!
No offense to those of German descent & that includes my hubby--mine herr who thinks these hilarious.

so happy to see the humor coming out today, maybe we need to add a "joke a day" posting and give out tropies to the best one. A Teal ribbon to paste on the forehead.
Not a video but funny so make sure you can laugh out loud.
FIRST TESTIMONY:
I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow
and asked loudly, "How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?" I turned around and walked back out and never went back. My husband didn't say a word...he knew better.
SECOND TESTIMONY:
I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls. I
was unhappy with the women's type I had been using. After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen who works at the store. He asked if he could help me. Without thinking, I looked at him and said, "I think I like playing with men's balls."
THIRD TESTIMONY:
My sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold a
variety of candy and nuts. As we were looking at the display case, the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help. I replied, "No, I'm just looking at your nuts." My sister started to laugh hysterically. The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away. To this day, my sister has never lets me forget.
FOURTH TESTIMONY:
While in line at the bank one afternoon, my toddler decided to
release some pent-up energy and ran amok. I was finally able to grab hold of her after receiving looks of disgust and annoyance from other patrons. I told her that if she did not start behaving "right now" she would be punished. To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice just as threatening, "If you don't let me go right now, I will tell Grandma that I saw you kissing Daddy's pee-pee last night!" The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange. Even the tellers stopped what they were doing. I mustered up the last of my dignity and walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow. The last thing I heard when the door closed behind me, were screams of laughter
FIFTH TESTIMONY:
Have you ever asked your child a question too many times? My
three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch in between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room. While enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I checked my seven-month-old daughter, and she was clean. Then I realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a while, so I asked him if he needed to go, and he said "No". I kept thinking "Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I don't have any clothes with me." Then I said, "Danny, are you SURE you didn't have an accident?" "No," he replied. I just KNEW that he must have
had an accident, because the smell was getting worse. Soooooo, I asked one more time, "Danny, did you have an accident?" This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over and spread his cheeks and yell led "SEE MOM, IT'SJUST FARTS!!" While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing, he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down. An old couple made me
feel better by thanking me for the best laugh they'd ever had!
LAST TESTIMONY:
This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a
very embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future, likely think before she speaks. What happens when you predict snow but don't get any... a true story... We had a female news anchor that, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn't, turned to the weatherman and asked: "So Bob, where's that 8 inches you promised me last night?" Not only did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too they were laughing so hard!

I have been and still am feeling yucky, but not as bad as the last two days. Just so awfully tired. Bain not totally in gear. B**chy. Glad you liked the videos. I was hoping this would be a sharing post so I am not yelling I am just putting this in caps to draw people's attention to it.
PLEASE POST A LINK TO A VIDEO OR TWO SO WE CAN ALL ENJOY SOMETHING FUNNY THAT IS NEW TO US.
I've already laughed at the ones I posted.
Oh, how could I have forgotten this one. This is how I feel about ovarian cancer. I laughed so hard I almost blew milk out of my nose.

Thanks. It is so easy for us to be grouchy and crabby but laughing is just what we all need. Even if it is to laugh at ourselves. You sound much better and I am glad to see that. I have been worried about you. But it is hard to stay down in the dumps long with so many people cheering you on. I will check out the videos in a little bit. I finally got a little sleep this morning and am still a little groggy. I want to make sure my brain is in the "go" mode when I watch them. Take care, Love Chris
Way to go Jan, I can see that sunshine coming out from behind those clouds now. love the videos
