A case of the Giggle Bugs...

I don't think that any other film depicts laughter as being the best medicine and contagious as the scene from Mary Poppins!! After watching this short clip, how could you not laugh?

I was reading in a book last month that Laughter is the best Medicine.  I was also reading this during a time of debilitating pain.. so I figured, why not?  Gave it a shot and it worked!! The pain was gone while laughing and the effects from it lasted quite awhile.  And why don't I do this more often??

Laughter, good ole fashion, belly aching laughter is actually the equivalent of running a mile!! Wow, so now when someone asks me if I run, I can say that I try everyday!!

IT is also very, very contagious!  It is called the Giggle Bug.  It symptoms usually start like this:
1. You find something strange to be very funny, then you start to feel a funny sensation all over.
2. Your cheeks start to break out in a smile
3. Before you know it, you are laughing so hard you about wet your pants!!
4. You can't stop, no matter how hard you try, you just cant and then comes the worse thing of all..
5. Everything from that point on causes you to laugh... can be totally off the wall stuff and then what happens next?..
6. The people next to you have caught the Giggle Bug and begin to be symptomatic..
7. Now all of you are laughing at the silliest things and before you know it,
you will be floating in the air like Uncle Albert from Mary Poppins!!

Be careful now.. because the Giggle Bug will bite you when you least expect it and you will soon break out into some silly laughter that is very, very contagious!!  Besides, those who laugh often live longer!! I hope that I will be infected with it and spread it around to all I know!  Now that is a Bug we all should have!!
