Humor Brief

A fellow who was down on his luck knocked at the door in an affluent neighborhood and asked if there were any chores he could do in exchange for food. He was given a meal, handed a brush along with a can of paint and was asked to paint the porch in the rear.

He came back two hours later and said he was done, adding, ''It was a Mercedes, not a Porsche.''

For the Health of It:  Everyone makes mistakes. After all, pobody's nerfect. And it's easy to laugh when they happen at someone else's expense. The real test comes when bad stuff happens to you. Alexander Pope said, "To err is human; to forgive, divine." A sense of humor can help to accept the former and embrace the latter.
