I came across this article in a recent edition of The Chronicle of Higher Education.

It gave me a laugh - which happens often - and made me think, which doesn't. Consider for a moment that you, me, any of us is judged by how successfully and consistently we make make people laugh. That's a pretty tough nut to crack especially given the wide disparity on what is considered to be funny; the same is true for success at teaching and learning; and many other places where we are tried. So, whether you are writing up your tenure documentation; performance review portfolio; or resume to get into the Friar's Club it might be worth a good, hearty chortle to help keep things in perspective.
(Plus I love the Groucho glasses, the wearing of which will loosen up any situation.)
