      Guidance to Those Who Read or Play Our Jokes and Stories to Seniors

      1.Laughing out loud, and louder yet . . . is vital. Encourage it and model it.

      2.Prepare by reading, knowing and mastering the joke. Laugh along with the CDs to learn.

      3.Playing our CDs of Doc reading with handouts of the jokes will also work well.

      4.You can play our CDs with a PowerPoint presentation on a screen.

      5.Reading to people who can see the jokes and stories is important.

      Why?

      1.It works best!

      2.Laughing is best, healthiest in a group of two or one hundred. It is communal and contagious.

      3.Great in one-to-one even with the seriously ill.

      6.Don’t cover too many at one time, based on your knowledge of your audience.

      7.The repetition of jokes that work well is well worth it. People love hearing a good joke or story again—most of us “butcher” jokes in telling them after we hear or read them. This can’t happen when using the Fountain of Humor way . . .

      8.You can access the precise jokes on the CDs because they are listed in order for you.

      9.Feel free to reproduce the text for your own needs.

      10.The Three Ways to Use Them:

      1.Play CDs with Doc reading and handout text to groups or individuals.

      2.Master the telling of the jokes, as Doc does on the CDs.

      3.For Special Needs.

      Examples of Special Needs:

      1.Our 23-year old recording engineer loves them for his grandmother— and as a part-time bartender he loves telling them to older patrons.

      2.My father-in-law, terminally ill, called often in his last year asking my wife and me to read a joke or two to him. Hearing him laugh from miles away also opened the door to comforting conversation and made it easier for all of us.

      3.An 85-year old, losing mental capacities, at first enjoyed and then repeatedly asks for our jokes to be read to her.

      What We Do

      We provide jokes and stories targeted to seniors 50+ through people who live with, work for, or love them as well as for individual seniors.

      The material is:

      •Helpful to mind and body

      •Funny

      •Tasteful

      •Likely to make most seniors laugh out loud

      We did all the work. All you need to do is LAUGH LOUD AND LONG to feel good.

      It’s all about feeling good, feeling much better, reducing sad feelings, healing mind and body. Yes, it works for you and yours.

      Not a cure-all for aging and not a Fountain of Youth.

      It is simply, a supply of funny jokes and stories that truly helps for a while to reduce depression about aging, loss of loved ones, chronic illness, loss of sight, sound and mobility and then . . . it works again and again.

      An elixir of joy

      A blind or partially blind person can hear the jokes and laugh

      A deaf or partially deaf person can see the jokes and laugh

      A healthy person can see and hear the jokes and laugh.

      Even the dying find something to laugh about for a moment in time—

      and will ask for more jokes.
