Laughter ... the best medicine

My name is Bob Simpson and I have been a comedy entertainer for several decades. You will notice the Aardvark logo throughout the website. When I started performing, my nose was considerably smaller than the aardvark’s nose, but I’m gaining on him. I often say that I have performed at every event except a stay of execution because I have performed at just about every event or environment I can think of. I have performed at numerous fairs, festivals, carnivals and other community events. I have performed at parties celebrating rites, rituals and other spiritual milestones for many different religions and cultures and the one thing everyone one seems to have in common is that we all love to laugh and enjoy ourselves which helps brings people together and, of course, helps to keep me out of the unemployment line.

I’d like to share an article about laughter written by Anthropologist Kirsten Bell. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did.
