Something to laugh about
From Jeanne Moos (CNN) -- In the immediate aftermath of the September 11 attacks, nothing seemed funny.
People walked around in shock. Not even comedians could summon a laugh. On his first show back, David Letterman gave a heartfelt, thoughtful speech about the tragedy, and his fellow late-night funnymen followed suit. But, to paraphrase the Book of Ecclesiastes, there is a time to cry, and a time to laugh. Gradually, Americans are finding comedy in their lives once more -- though they're doing so a little more soberly. CNN's Jeanne Moos takes a look at a country learning to laugh again. |
