It’s your organization’s annual meet, and you’ve been made in charge of the entertainment for the evening. You’ve hired an entertainment agency and they’re suggesting that you use a corporate comedian as the main entertainment act for the evening.
I’m a bit of a joker I’ll admit, and have loved prank calls since I was a young kid. Although my parents discouraged them intensely, by the time I was in my late teens they’d even have me make the odd humorous call to their friends.
You ever have times in your life when you just have to laugh? I flew to Colorado last Friday morning. My flight was at 6 am so I was planning on arriving at the airport at 4:30.
I’ve just accepted that this is a fun ride we’re on and we have to laugh…starting with laughing at ourselves. Sometimes things in life are so bad that you can’t help but laugh. You just accept the consequences of stupidity and try to never do that again.
Death is truly funny as long as it doesn’t happen to someone we know. We better learn some common sense or we’re bound to be a statistic.
Some people cannot point to the lowest moment of their life. Mine is branded into my mind. It was a few years ago at a Tennessee/South Carolina football game. The game began at 7:30. We got there about 12:00. So, we had a few hours of pregame tailgating in a city I’m very fond of, Knoxville, Tennessee.
