******************************************************

If you work too hard, there is never any time for her. If you don't work enough, you're a good-for-nothing bum.

If she has a boring repetitive job with low pay, it's exploitation. If you have a boring repetitive job with low pay, you should get off your ass and find something better.

If you get a promotion ahead of her, it's favoritism. If she gets a job ahead of you, it's equal opportunity.

If you mention how nice she looks, it's sexual harassment. If you keep quiet, it's male indifference.

If you cry, you're a wimp. If you don't, you're insensitive.

If you make a decision without consulting her, you're a chauvinist pig, you bastard. If she makes a decision without consulting you, she's a liberated woman.

If you ask her to do something she doesn't enjoy, that's domination. If she asks you, it's a favor.

If you try to keep yourself in shape, you're vain. If you don't, you're a slob.

If you buy her flowers, you're after something. If you don't, you're not thoughtful.

If you're proud of your achievements, you're an egotist. If you're not, you're not ambitious.

If she has a headache, she's tired. If you have a headache, you don't love her anymore, and you must be sleeping around.

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."

Laughter May Be the Best Medicine - ABC News

On staff at New York's esteemed Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center is Dr. Stubbs the Clown, aka Michael Christensen, co-founder of the Big Apple Circus Clown Care Unit. Since 1986, he's spearheaded a program that has placed 93 clowns in 17 hospitals around the country, making 200,000 bedside calls a year.

Allison Crane, a nurse from Illinois, furthered the effort in 1987, founding the Association for Applied Therapeutic Humor. She had earlier belonged to a focus group called Nurses for Laughter and wanted to expand the program so that all health-care professionals could realize the healing benefits of humor.

Among the AATH's missions is to compile research, and among the most promising studies comes out of Loma Linda University in California, where doctors have been studying laughter's benefits on the immune system.

A 2000 study of 52 male medical students found that when they watched humorous videos, their stress levels, as measured by T-cell activity in the blood, tended to rise, according to Dr. Lee Berk. T-cells, also called "natural killer cells," jump-start the body's immune system by attacking viruses.

In another study, Berk followed two groups of cardiac patients through a yearlong rehabilitation program. All the patents received standard care. But one group also watched 30 minutes of comic videos each day. Berk found that laughter decreased disease-related symptoms, such as arrhythmias.

"It's more than a little ironic that we're quickly realizing just how important humor is to the healing process, because doctors have always had the reputation of being the most humorless of people," said Dr. Greg LeGana, who maintains a duel career in medicine and show business.

LeGana and fellow doctor Barry Levy, a school chum from New York's Cornell Medical College, created the New York cabaret show "Damaged Care," a musical comedy about the medical profession. They've performed before health-care professionals and general audiences throughout the country.

"Anyone who's ever made people laugh knows that they are soothing a soul," said LeGana. "It's great that research seems to be bearing out something we've always known in are hearts to be true."
