As
all of you in academia know, this is not a slam-dunk
and we must be patient in our quest for acceptance
for publication; but, golly, it is so exciting
to finally be at this stage in the process. ‘Good

don't have that much time!”
It
will be four years this April since that first
article on laughter caught my eye in Parade Magazine.
And, it will be two years this April when the universe
aligned itself so that Nate and I could meet
and begin the joyous journey of publishing the
first-ever study on the effects of laughter (in
the absence of humor) in the workplace.

Giggles
are Good at Work! This article in the Kansan
is the closest we can come to sharing the
results of our research with you. Obviously we
must wait until the findings are published in
a medical journal before we can post the actual
results. In the meantime, this is a fun and interesting
article.
Until
next time … laugh yourselves silly. You'll
feel better!
