In this serious world of Killer Drones, Homicide Victims, more wars and illnesses we can all use some joy and humor.

The joy came to me by way of email with a link to an article in the NYT Society section about the joyful wedding of Frida Berrigan and Patrick Sheehan Gaumer. Frida is the daughter of Philip Berrigan a friend from the 60’s and Milwaukee 14 days. I had the privilege of meeting Frida a few years ago at a Catholic Worker resistance retreat in Chicago. She, like her father, was full of determination to make peace and resist war but also like him had a great smile, sense of peace and good sense of humor. The article described a love affair full of joy.

Humor came to me today in an email that two people sent me. The subject of the email was “Hot Outside?” It is very hot outside this week so and there more heat promised for tomorrow. So this was timely humor. You can find the humor on the side, below and in the Jokes web page on this site.

Yes, in face of this world full of Killer Drones, Homicide Victims, more wars and illnesses we need joy and humor.
