PERSONAL NOTE

This year has been a real mixed bag for me.  I am looking forward to June, though, as my brother will be in town for a couple of days, and we always laugh and have a lot of fun together.  Then a few days after that a dear friend from New York will be in town.  Even though both visits will be short, it's easy to pack in a lot of laughs and fun when that's your intention.  Speaking of fun, that's the subject for this month.  So, let's get after it.

COOL RESOURCE

Since this month is about having fun, I am recommending two classic comedy routines that you will find on YouTube.  The first one is Abbott and Costello's Who's on First and the second is Tim Conway and his famous dentist routine.    

 If these don't get you laughing, make an emergency call to your doctor to get a funny bone transplant.  Enjoy!!
