Amazing Trivia Part 1
I admit it .. I LIKE trivia, tho it serves no purpose for me
since I can never remember any to bring up in conversation. But
still, it is fun, so I've created this list of amazing trivia
that I found to be absolutely riveting.
1. Snails can...
Friends -- With Benefits
We've all been there. That long, seemingly endless drought during which time you get no play. No action. No sweet lovin'. The dating life is mediocre, and you've got no prospects. But as we've proven time and time again, we're a resourceful bunch....
John Wayne Took The Good With The Bad
For the last twenty years of his life, John Wayne often had a profound effect on people that crossed his path. Meeting him in person for some was like meeting Abraham Lincoln or George Washington. Yet the Duke usually stayed humble and almost always...
My Final Last Words, Finally, Well Almost
If I heard it once I've heard it a million times and this week was no exception. In fact, the words have carelessly tumbled from my lips on many occasions, some of which have been perilously near the conclusion of my sermons. Most preachers never...
Taking A Little Time Out For Time
Today's topic, ladies and gentleman, is: Time. We're going to talk about time today because I never seem to have enough of it. And I figure that if I dedicate a whole column to the subject of time and stress some of it's finer points, then perhaps...

How to write funny ideas
People are always curious as where do humorists get their wacky
ideas all the time. Once awhile you may hit upon a funny line or
silly joke, but to churn out an endless stream of funny ideas is
no joke(no pun intended).
So, where and how do the professional comedy writers do it? It's
all up in the head and the deep secret is the thinking process.
The combination of creativity and imagination is the first step
that will lead your thoughts to the funny finish.
To be imaginative and creative, you got to let your mind wander
freely and illogically even to absurdity. Don't be inhibited.
Many a times, the best joke appeared in the most unexpected
combination.
Here are five techniques which you can generate humorous ideas:
1.Incongruity - by pairing of opposites or contrasts. 2.Reverse
- by switching or reverting of situations.
3.Similarity - by
pairing of the same or similar things, person or situations
4.Words - by using puns, oxymorons, cliches and figure of speech
5.Switches - by using others'ideas only as a starting point.
These are the four essential elements of humor:
1.Surprise - unexpected twist to the ending 2.Realism - truth or
logic that can be related to or recognised 3.Exaggeration -
simple distortion to the extent of absurdity 4.Victim - the butt
of the joke
