Oh- another thing I thought about...I saw a documentary about a guy in India...I think he was a doctor or something like that, who started a Laughing Club. Excellent documentary, wonderful idea, and people were getting healthier and healthier! The movement got to be realy big, with thousands of practitioners.

Also, in Japan, there is a religious festival where the monks celebrate laughter. Cool!

Another group makes laughter the first thing they do in the morning upon waking. I tried this sometimes, and it was great! Nice way to start the day! That reminds me-I ought to start doing that again...

I was at a party over the holidays, and the hostess said it is good luck in her culture to toast, then face the East and laugh out loud rauciously. We did, several times, and by the end of the evening, we were doubled over with giggles. (the alchohol helped, I am sure) What a great set of sore ribs the next day, and fond memories of a realy good time.
