"A Family that Laughs Together Stays Together"

Laughter has the power to unify. What is it that makes our closest friends? We can share a laugh together. People like to be around other people that make them happy. In the case of my family, everybody is in a better mood at the dinner table when we all sit down and start talking about funny things. The laughter is contagious, and will continue to grow until somebody chokes on their food. (Back slappings all around.)
Laughter can take those situations that are awkward and transform them into a comedic moment. When with my friends, everyday occurences and things that other people do never cease to entertain us, whether it is somebody being goofy at lunch or we're trading off momma jokes.
Some of the people for whom I have a lot of respect are comedians. Even though they may not know it, through their genius and character they can brighten days and create moments that can be discussed over and over again with other people. Comedians probably are some of the bravest people too, because they are constantly making fun of famous people. Some of the things that politicians, celebrities, and reality TV show participants do really are just waiting to be made fun of so that we can all have a laugh.
