Greetings!
  

    Thank you for stopping by our web site!

    We publish a free monthly clean humor paper called, The Funny Paper , and distribute it at locations where customers and patients can enjoy a laugh while waiting for services.
    My name is Steve Durkac and I am the principal of Merry Medicine Productions . Before launching this company in March 2008, I served as a hospital chaplain with Providence Hospital in Mobile, Alabama.

   While working with Hurricane Katrina victims, as a hospital chaplain, I was struck by the quick turn-around one patient took, when he suddenly found something to laugh about. He lost everything he owned and after a week of reflection he was reminded of an old George Carlin comedy bit on "Stuff." We both laughed in his hospital room as we recounted the comedy bit. 
    I was amazed by the emotional and physical healing that took place for him after that unscheduled session of comedy, humor, and laughter.
    That encounter set me off on a two year study of the dynamics of humor and laughter and its place in our emotional, physical, and spiritual well being.

    In that process, I discovered medical research and therapeutic practices of laughter that go beyond entertainment. I  learned that laughter helps us break down communication barriers, it fosters teamwork, it builds employee morale, it increases mental attentiveness, promotes open interaction, it decreases stress hormones, improves the immune system, it boosts good endorphins, it aids in better breathing and it just plain old makes us feel good!
    In September 2007 I became a Certified Laughter Leader and began leading therapeutic laughter programs and giving speaking presentations for businesses, healthcare, and organizations searching for fun stress relief and morale building programs!
    The Funny Paper, launching in July 2008, is a another step in the direction of promoting the benefits of laughter amongst the public. Merry Medicine Productions is preparing to launch The Funny Paper as a national low cost start-up business opportunity (www.thefunnypaper.net) in the fall of 2008.

    Please surf around and let me know how we can help you stress less and succeed more! 
   
   Steve Durkac,
   Principal
