A very elderly couple is having an elegant dinner to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. The old man leans forward and says softly to his wife, "Dear, there is something that I must ask you. It has always bothered me
that our fourth child never quite looked like the rest of our children. Now, I want to assure you that these 50 years have been the most wonderful experience I could have ever hoped for, and your answer cannot take that all
that away. But, I must know... did he have a different father?"
The wife drops her head, unable to look her husband in the eye. She pauses for a moment and then confesses, "I'm afraid he did have a different father."
The old man is very shaken, and the news was hitting him harder than he had expected. With a tear in his eye he asks, "Who? Who was he? Who was the father?"
Again the old woman drops her head, saying nothing at first. She musters the courage to tell her husband the truth, and finally says "You."
If you don't learn to laugh at trouble,
you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.

The Capitol Records building in Los Angeles, California is built to resemble a stack of records. A red airplane-warning light atop the structure flashes out the word "Hollywood" in Morse code every 20 seconds or so.
