                                   ARTICLE: Cubicle Survival through the Application of Systematic Humor

Psychoneuroimmunologists have long known that laughter and humor can result in increased Immunoglobulin A as well as increased lymphocyte count.

These are good things.

The cubicle may be the industrialized world's most depressed environment, yet little has been done to address the plight of those inhabiting this desolation. Given the availability of potential healing regimens, this is curious. Office wellness is failing, and nothing is being done about it. Some scientists believe that long before global warming does us in, the crisis in cubicle mental health will cause society to crumble. It would be ironic indeed if the rising ocean tide met little more than a pile of decaying cardboard upon arrival in our coastal cities.

Ironic, but not so far-fetched. Unless we begin to systematically apply humor to those most in need of it, we might as well just gather up our staplers and walk into the sea right now.

Yes, it's that dire.

We all could use some more Immunoglobulin A, especially those of us in offices and cubicles. Therefore, as we venture bravely into 2008, let us make it our mission to systematically apply humor at every opportunity over the next weeks and months.

Thank God for the psychoneuroimmunologists. Let the healing begin.
