Comedy may be the most powerful door to spiritual, emotional, psychological, social, and political awakening.
Well-timed laughter permits moments of lucid objectivity.
In an instant we may see the naked truth, and laughter is the spoon full of sugar that helps the medicine go down.
...but don't think about it too much... like that scene in Caddyshack when Judge Smails is about to swing and is asked whether he inhales or exhales when he swings and then he totally whiffs it.
Lynne I hope you have a great Christmas and a very Happy New Year. I see you will be at the Funnybone in Dayton, OH in Feb. I can hardly wait to see your live show. You were so terrific on Season 1 of ZRock. Peace and love
