As I have mentioned in my previous posts (ad nauseum), my best (and probably only), coping mechanism is humor. I look for it everywhere. One of my many shallow hobbies is laughing at famous peoples' hairstyles, clothing, etc. I feel that once they are in the public eye they are fair game. This is only done for my own amusement. I would not publicly humiliate anyone other than myself. There might be a prominent newsperson discussing something deadly serious, and my focus will go directly to the bad hairstyle or ugly tie. I will comment to whoever is around about how ridiculous the person looks despite the fact that they may be discussing the proximity of the asteroid colliding with earth. I do not discuss politics in this blog. However, I do have to comment on Condoleezza Rice's hair style. In my opinion, she really needs a change. That old "flip" thing from the '60s just doesn't cut it. Feel free to give me your feed back on this. I personally feel she should have a shorter "do." It would be much more flattering. Anyway, I think there is a definite need for humor practitioners. You could go for your doctorate in Humorcology. Humor could be a supplement to your prescribed meds. Take 37.5 mg of Paxil CR at 4:00 PM. Watch the movie Airplane from 5:00 - 6:30. If you don't like slapstick, watch something a little more cerebral like Being There with Peter Sellers. Anything funny will do. You can't OD. Monty Python, Woody Allen, the list goes on and on. If you hear some bad news, do what you can. Then go immediately to your humor reserve. A word of advice.. Try to have a somewhat serious facade at times or they will increase your meds.
