A Merry Heart Does Good Like Medicine....

We went to Jeffrey Gitomer's seminar last Friday. He speaks to sales people about winning techniques. Two things I picked up on - using laughter and humor, and the sending of an email newsletter or "ezine". So I came back to the office and googled Des Moines ezine. You'll never guess what the top result of that search was... Association for Applied and Therapeutic Humor! Did you know there was such a group? Does anybody read ezines? I'm curious about both. There are links on the ezine to different articles. One is laughing more to burn calories, also pace while you're on the phone and gesture wildly while you talk! Isn't it good to know by spending more time on the phone you could loose weight? Now lower the thermostat and drink cold water and you're burning even more calories!

How many blondes does it take to change a light bulb? Blonde says, "Change it into what? Just buy a new lamp, silly"

The blonde woke up to find her house on fire...she dialed 911 and said "come quick my house is on fire"...the 911 operator said "how do we get there?"...the blonde said "on the red fire truck, duh...."

April Fool's Day Pranks...

Did you get tricked yesterday?? I love April Fool's Day, but some people let it slide by un-noticed and un-celebrated. Are you one of those? Or did you "punk" someone? I'd love to hear some good safe pranks. We sent out 400 letters about our new endeavor of raising rattlesnakes for fun and profit. We included an envelope of sample rattlesnake eggs. (Actually a very simple trick - a piece of wire,holding 2 rubberbands and a metal washer. The washer gets wound around, twisting the rubber band, when the envelope is opened the washer unwinds making a rattling sound against the paper envelope.) Seems innocent . We got one call from a very nervous person who had hurriedly put the "eggs" in her garbage tote, and was hopeful that the weather was cold enought that they wouldn't hatch before next Tue. when the garbage truck comes! My least favorite trick is when my boys put a rubberband around the sprayer hose in the kitchen sink. Of course - I'm the only one that uses it and gets a surprise shot of cold water front and center. I HATE it - and they think it's hysterical! What's your favorite prank?

NO JOKE - The Eisenlauer Team is easy to work with...hard to beat!
