Laugh, and the whole world laughs with you. Cry, and you get fat.

From RealAge.com comes a weight watching tip for movie buffs: "Having trouble choosing between Blazing Saddles and Love Story on movie night? If you're trying to lose weight, go for the funny cowboy flick instead of the tearjerker. Why? Because you'll probably snack less. When a group of people in a study watched a sad movie, they ate close to 30 percent more buttered popcorn than when they watched a happy film."

Ha, ha, ha! They needed comfort food! (Ummm, butter.)

I assure you, I would have no problem choosing between Blazing Saddles and Love Story. No choice at all, as far as I'm concerned.
