Blue Collar Humor



On Saturday, I went to a “Blue Collar Concert” with my husband and a couple of friends. Bill Engvall, Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy were at their best. The show was hilarious and the comedians were hilarious. This got me to thinking: what a great way to make a living – going up on stage and making people laugh! These three performers are accomplished entertainers and are comfortable on stage. We had excellent seats, being three rows from the state. Because of this, I was able to closely observe the ease with which they bantered and how much they enjoy each other’s humour. How wonderful would it be to go to work when your job is to make people laugh and to be brought to laughter yourself by your collegues? Even if you were having a bad day, going up on stage and hearing your audience’s laughter and sharing laughs with the people you tour with couldn’t help but cheer you up. Enjoying what you do and bringing laughter to people . . . it’s a good thing!
