Humour for All Ages, Occasions and Celebrations

I was born in 1932, near Estevan, Saskatchewan. This was the time of the Great Depression. Due the economic situation we moved to Morris, Manitoba, Canada, 30 miles south of Winnipeg in 1938. After fi nishing High School I attended University of Manitoba and studied Business Management, and then worked as a Merchandising, and Purchasing Agent for a large Retail fi rm with approximately 300 stores in Western Canada. It was during this time that I was called upon many times to be Master of Ceremonies for weddings and business meetings, etc. In order to prepare and arrange for some humor and various comments suitable for these occasions I had to spend many hours searching various books and sources on many subjects. Gradually I began to collect jokes, quotes, puns and interesting stories which I put into a “Book of Humor for all Occasions”. This is the fi nal result with close to 400 pages of humor, interesting stories, puns and quotes under 36 themes. Even today, during my travels and meeting many individuals I still look up a joke or two and share them with people I meet on a regular basis. Many individuals told me that they look forward to my visits and the humor we share. With the publishing of this Book of Humor I am hopeful that many of you can also share humor and use these for various occasions in your experiences to make life more enjoyable. Remember for good health, laughter is like a medicine! Mel Bergstresser.
