If you need a laugh (or cry?) ...

My friend Kent Annan (a gifted writer whose new book will be out in December - learn about his writing and his beautiful work in Haiti here ...) passed this on:

The other day I heard a comedian tell a joke that made me laugh out loud: "For a long time I was sponsoring an orphan in a really tough place somewhere in Africa. But not anymore. I was watching TV late at night and this ad came on and I realized, "What, for that same amount of money, I could be getting a coffee every single day!"

Gotta laugh and cry in this world, right?
