Why is laughter so energizing and crying so enervating? Laughing makes you feel so good...crying doesn't. Why?

This question was inspired indirectly by an Answermug friend who made me laugh this morning. I noticed how much better I felt and wonder why that it is? What happens to us physically when we laugh and when we cry that causes our bodies to react as they do? Anyone know?
