Laughter is an instant vacation. -Milton Berle

I was on a city bus today and overheard a conversation between two apparent drifters who hadn't seen each other in a while. They were all, "Hey!" to each other, and then Guy One said he's staying at the shelter now.
Guy Two: Oh, is that right? So, how's life going for you?
Guy One: Well. Not so good.
<pause>
Guy Two: I guess that was a stupid question.

And then they both laughed.

I love shared laughs, even under sad circumstances.

Or, especially under sad circumstances.

Laughter does make everything better or at least bearable.
