Let me present here an extract from the ebook The Power of Laughter
|

Keep Your Joke Simple
Good jokes often have a surprise element or some sort of twist but, apart from that, you should
keep everything simple so that your friends can easily follow the story and the finish is crystal
clear.
Just Use Email for Messages
In a formal presentation, many speakers will use stories to emphasize a point that they want
their audience to think about or act on. This takes some careful setting up so that the story and
the message are both acceptable to the listeners.
When you’re with your friends or colleagues, stick to funny jokes without trying to be subtle and
add other content.
If you want to give them a message – send them an email.
Keep it Short
There are one-line jokes, paragraph-length jokes and jokes where the finale is funny enough
that it can be worth spending up to a couple of minutes giving the build-up. Give each joke or
story the amount of detail it needs but no more.
For instance, you might be telling your friends about a carpet salesman, and go into some detail
about the carpet that’s the focus of your story but they will become confused and less responsive
if you add too many details.
Laughing at Your Own Joke.
Some people try to emphasize how funny their story is by laughing themselves while they are
telling it. That will almost always backfire. Let the audience decide how funny the joke is, and
then you can join in.
This is especially important if you are describing a situation where you (or the person in your
story) was not feeling funny at the time. If you say, “I was breathing flames”, and you’re
laughing at the same time – that probably won’t have the impact that you’d get if you
demonstrate how you looked and sounded – until you deliver the punch-line of the joke.

Picture this. You're standing around the water cooler at the office, sharing comments about last
nights favorite sitcom. Here comes "Joe the Jerk", the buffoon of the office staff.
He butts in with, "have you heard the latest about the farmers daughter?" He launches into his
latest off color joke completely ignoring the gender or makeup of his audience.
When he finally finishes, an uncomfortable silence falls across the group. Moments later one or
two people may offer a half hearted chuckle and the group breaks up heading back to their
workplace amid an uncomfortable atmosphere.
Unfortunately this, or something similar, happens every day around the globe.
There's no doubt about it, laughter truly is the best medicine. You probably have your own
personal "library" of jokes that you roll out when the occasion arises.
However, have you ever given any thought to "joke etiquette?" Probably not, because until now
there hasn't been any guidelines written on the subject.
That's no longer the case. The Power of Laughter brings you a long list of wonderfully laughable
jokes ... however ... it doesn't stop there.
Not just another overdone "joke book", The Power of Laughter explores the anatomy of a joke
from introduction straight through to delivery.
He discusses the right and wrong way to tell a joke and teaches you how to determine the
"appropriateness" and timing of your joke.
He also explores:
* How to keep it simple
* Laughing at your own joke
* Risque jokes - yes or no
* Insults and put-downs
* Wrong joke or wrong audience
* Timing
* How to steal from the best
* How to be a good audience
* Your biggest asset
John Williams does not promise that you'll be the next star on the professional comedy circuit, but
he does teach you how to add humor and life to your social and business encounters.
Whether you are already a good storyteller or someone who would like to learn how to develop
and deliver a repertoire, there is something for everyone in The Power of Laughter.
Grab your copy today and be the life of the party tomorrow!
