There's a comedian I've admired for many years whose comedy is like that. He teaches us lessons about life. The incomparable Mr. Bill Cosby is an incredible talent. Here he is in an early episode of The Cosby Show teaching his son a lesson in economics: I found a YouTube video of him hosting You Bet Your Life where a woman with a thick Southern accent talked about where she's from.

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.
