Alan Thicke, Canadian Actor (1947-  )
If one tends to be a humorous person and you have a sense of humor the rest of your life then you can certainly lighten the load, I think, by bringing that to your trials and tribulations. It's easy to have a sense of humor when everything is going well.
Alan Thicke, Canadian Actor (1947-  )
