Editor’s Note: With high gas prices, people losing their homes from decisions they made and the economy slowing down.

We as Americans have always used laughter to ease our pain. Recently, I read a book that was full of a lot of riddles and jokes. They were so funny that I couldn’t stop laughing and it helped me forgot something that was upsetting me that day.

Each week, we will publish jokes that we hope will bring you lots of joy. We also hope you will send us your own jokes. That we can share with our readers.
