Q. Depressive? How many jokes do you need a day to have at least one smile in your face? To be depressive is no fun. I started my depression 26 years ago. During 12 years I could not laugh loud anymore. You know - the " lol " in your chats. So my personal medication were jokes, comedy films on tv or to rent a funny VHS or DVD from a store and have the fun that I needed to forget a little bit all my trouble. Find out what you need. Here I will put from time to time a joke, to keep you laughing a little.

A. It happens in Harlem...
A man is crossing slowly the streets to find a prostitute.
Many are standing there and he choose one.
Together they walk to her bedroom.
She deems the light down and starts to take her clothes off.
She takes off her wig, then she takes out of her mouth her false teeth, when she has no trousers anymore on, she puts away her left prosthesis, then she lays on the bed and takes her fake right hand and puts in at the side.
The man is already undressed and can't believe his eyes. He opens the window, then he takes all his clothes, his shoes and throw it out the window down to the street.
"Hey man? What are you doing - are you crayizy?"
"Look, before I will be able to come in erection with you, all my clothes and shoes will be out of fashion!"
