Even Fundraisers Need A Break Now and Again

If your kids said or did something that’s funny or touching, let’s hear it. Or, if you’re like me and find yourself to be one of your own greatest sources for humor, then write it down and share it on Twitter or Facebook so the rest of us can laugh with you … or even at you.

You don’t need to be a staff writer for “The Simpsons” to come up with a good quip or two every once and a while. I’m proof of that. All you need is the ability to look at yourself or at life from a slightly skewed perspective. For example, a week or two ago I wrote on my Facebook and Twitter pages, “Richard just lost twelve pounds. No, wait, there they are.” I know Dave Letterman won’t be calling me anytime soon, but I thought it was funny. Apparently, based on the responses I received to the post, so did a lot of other people.
