Did you know that children laugh on average 300-400 times a day*, but by the time we become adults that rate apparently plummets to a pathetic 8-15 times per diem. Doesn’t that rip the fork out of your nightie?

What a sad indictment of today’s society that we can find so little to laugh about.  I mean come on chucklers, if babies can laugh before they can manage to say Mum-mum or goo-goo, how is that a fully-grown adult can’t even summon up a giggle at least once an hour?

Seems we all need to get up to more funny business.
