FEATURE/Naster Proves He's the Master of Laughter in Latest Book, You Just Have To Laugh KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE FEATURES)--Life can be hard to swallow without a sense of humor. In his book You Just Have to Laugh, comedian David Naster and the hundreds of people he interviewed share true-life experiences and how humor saved their lives during rock-bottom times. Naster presents real-life stories in his trademark style that has made him a headline act in three continents, 10 countries, 48 states and 526 college campuses. His humor has landed him gigs on HBO, SHOWTIME and CBS' Comedy Hour. Individuals who've faced cancer, divorce, POW camps, crime, road rage, death and even parenthood (scary) tell how they leveraged laughter and "laughed" to tell. Divided into chapters appropriately named You Just Have to Laugh ... at Your Family ...at Your Job ...at Yourself and at Death, Naster's book demonstrates the tremendous resiliency of the human spirit and power of a single tear-generating laugh. "The book puts life totally into perspective and makes you laugh, too," says Naster, Kansas City-based comedian. "After just reading a few stories, readers will nix 'I had a bad day' from their vocabulary." President and CEO of Southwest Airlines Herbert Kelleher tells Naster that they share the same philosophy about life and laughter. Kelleher's comment came after he read Naster's story about a Southwest flight attendant who made passengers roar with her pre-takeoff announcements. Now in its second printing, You Just Have to Laugh is available nationally through Barnes and Noble and Amazon.com, for $12.95. Book stores can order copies from the BookSource in St. Louis.
