It’s Humor Week (or rather Communication FUNdamentals Week)  here at Communication FUNdamentals!  That means all the funniest communication tips, articles, videos, quotes, pictures <—— (notice anything funny about that?) and other creative fun I can muster.  Why?  Well, because the blog’s called Communication FUNdamentals.  That’s why!  lol

My blog’s name reflects the humor with which I write all of my articles and communication studies for Art of Eloquence.com.   I have always loved humor ever since I was a little tiny communicator and I patterned Art of Eloquence materials after The Great Communicator, Ronald Reagan, who used humor and his Christian faith to convey his messages.

I wrote a short article a long while ago in a galaxy far, far away that I have posted on the Articles Page of our website.  It’s called “Humor: A Powerful Communication Tool.”  So I’ll begin at the beginning with this article which starts off…

In the olde days of kings who ruled with absolute power, only the court jester could safely tell the King the truth, mediated through humor.  Anyone else who attempted to tell the Emperor he had no clothes was in danger of losing his head!

Humor is a valuable and effective tool for communicating just about anything because humor breaks down barriers.  Carefully disguised as fun, humor can smuggle new ideas into people’s hearts.

To read the rest of the article, click here.

Knowing how important humor is to effective communication and the study of communication, I’m going to share as many comical, creative and fun ways in which we use humor this week.  I usually post only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, but check back each day this week for more Communication FUNdamentals.

Today’s insightful, creative giggle is in the form of a video.  Victor Borge in Inflationary Language.  What do you think about humor? Post your comments here and please pass along the blog link to others to share the giggles!  Thanks.

National Punctuation Day

Today is National Punctuation Day! To celebrate punctuation on this fine Friday Funny day, I’ve been searching for the funniest picture, joke or YouTube video I could find. I kept coming back to Victor Borge.

I’ve posted Phonetic Punctuation before on Communication FUNdamentals, but this is a different version and the biggest belly laugh I could provide you on this fine, fun, and completely fabulous day! So without any further ado, I give you

Happy National Punctuation Day!”

Musical Phonetic Punctuation

Victor Borge was a fabulously funny man and a talented pianist.  I’ve posted his bit “Phonetic Punctuation” before here on Communication FUNdamentals, but I just found this related video with Dean Martin.

The two do “Musical Phonetic Punctuation” where they punctuate the phrases of the following songs.  At least Dean Martin tries.  Victor Borge is so funny, Dean Martin has a hard time keeping a straight face!  Enjoy!

More Friday fun with communication from your friends at Art of Eloquence.com!
