Came here on the recommendation of Paul because I, too, share “the clown thing.” I am *so* happy to read about Tom, but I’m going to have to work up the nerve to click that link. Maybe tomorrow.

Your girls sound just lovely

Clowns freaked me out way before “IT” was published, and last weekend’s experience with the likely-crackhead clown in Boston Public Garden only solidified the impression. Though I’m glad “Clown Tom” redemed the profession for the next generation.

Isn’t it wonderful to finally be able to kvetch about how much better things were “back in my day?”

I do NOT like circuses. I know - apple pie, American tradition and all, but no. I don’t like clowns (I still have nightmares about them - really!) and I hate seeing the animals on display. My last trip to the circus was 16 years ago and we also had to cross a PETA line with people in cages dressed as animals. It was awful…

*shake it off*

Okay, that being said, I’m glad there were fun moments for you. And Dinah, bless her heart, provided one top notch memory!

Love and kisses to you all.
