LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE

Laughter has many benefits physically, mentally, and socially.  For example, laughter can boost our immune system, relieve stress, make relationships stronger, and even prevent heart disease.  For class you had to bring something to make us laugh.  Some of you brought in a picture and others made jokes.  I think we all had a good time.

For this blog, I would like you to share a scene from a movie, TV program, stand up comedy, etc. that you find funny.  You can go to youtube.com and find the video.  Here is my example.

This video is an example of slapstick comedy.  Slapstick comedy is a type of comedy in which physical violence and activities are exaggerated to provoke laughter.  This video is from The 3 Stooges.  They were a comedy act starting way back in the 1930s.  I remember my grandfather would watch it and laugh although he didn't know much English. 




TASK:  Upload a funny video.  Give a brief explanation about the video.  You can indicate why you chose it, what type of comedy it is, info about the video, etc.

DATE DUE:  April 30, 2010

    I chose this video because I think people are curious. I have two videos. It is like a man depilarsesus intimate parts. And also the repressed desire of mujeres.jajaja. Here we observe how people do things without realizing that what they are watching. They risk not knowing the consequences. Watch and laugh .....

    I chose this compilation of funny scenes because it made me laugh since the beginning. The best scenes are:
    1. the guy trying to smash the watermelons with his head; surely he had a brain damage, and
    2. the woman trying a sexy dance and how she finished her performance.
    Hope you like it!!!

    I saw this program few years ago when it was transmitting in local channels. I like it because is a traditional family with a big humor to process the daily situations with the care of three girls. In the general program exist another actor, is a crazy girl, friend of one of them and this guy Steve. He makes me laugh with all the innocent of the age but in the same time he looks like a dome person with a big glasses and a high pants.
