I've been reading a little of Sarah Silverman's autobiography, and I'm half way interested in getting into comedy, perhaps. It's not that I think that I'm any good. I just want a major change of scenery. I'm from a very conservative part of town, and not much goes on here. I feel like I don't have much of a personality and am always looking at the negative side of things. I was hoping that hanging around people with a more light-hearted perspective would hopefully rub off.

Happiness is catching. I try to say something that will cause someone to smile or laugh. There are times when a compliment is the best gift you can give. If you listen carefully many of the comedians have a dry sense of humor. The Jeffersons. The Nanny, the orignal Cosby Show and the Golden Girls are example of dry humor. Timing is everything. It is not what one says, it is how the 'punch line' is delivered that makes one smile or laugh.

There are comedy clubs all over Illinois from small rural towns to Chicago.
