Your post is about cleansing laughs???
It's one of my favorite movies of all time. Hard to believe that movie is 45 years old. Hard to believe that I'm over 45 years old...

Wish I was focusing better today. . .
"Can we keep him?
No
But it's a TALKING dog!!!"
This particular humor puzzle is not ready for prime time, unless you count those shows which need stage bouncers to manage the humor. The very few of those laughs I was able to endure don't qualify as "compassionate humor" in Arf World.
