"Don't take life too seriously. You're never going to get out of it alive anyway."

Herb True, author of Humor Power: How to Get It, Give It and Gain (1980)

Here’s where my kids would jump in with a warning about my Dad Jokes. When Chris, Jenn and Vanessa were teenagers and dating, they’d warn new boyfriends or girlfriends not to laugh at my wisecracks. “Don’t encourage him,” they’d caution, as I tried to stamp a HELLO! My Name Is sticker on the new visitor's jacket. There really was quite a parade of them.

In my workshops and retreats I often kid about kidding and pledge to go easy on the Dad Jokes. After one session, a participant – a fellow Dad Joker – e-mailed me: “We have three children as well. They too groan at ‘Dad Jokes.’ In fact, a couple of years ago they and my wife implemented a house rule of only allowing me two Dad Jokes a night! Great stuff...keep it coming...and don't give up the Dad jokes.”

I am assuming you, dear reader, are not on a humor-reduced diet. A sense of humor is critical in dealing with the nasty changes and dangerous turbulence that can violently shake our comfortable lives. If we take it all too seriously, it can scare the wit out of us.
