Those are great stories!

Now here's one from "Laughter, the best medicine" in this month's Readers Digest:

A client brought her two cats to my husband's veterinary clinic for their annual check up. One was a small-framed, round tiger-striped tabby while the other was a long, sleek black cat.

The owner watched closely as I put each cat on the scales. "They weigh about the same," I told her.

"That proves it," she exclaimed. "Black does make you look slimmer and stripes make you look fat."
