Emily thinks that her fear of clowns started as a kid when she was forced to sit and eat cereal and watch episodes of "Bozo the Clown" while her dad negotiated big-time deals with some tennis pro named Pearlman. She also thinks it has something to do with the time she woke up in her basement and "Killer Clowns from Outer Space" was playing on the tv. Thats not the last time that she has experienced waking up in the middle of the night to mind altering matter. A few months ago she was asleep on the couch and an object on her mantle that her semi-pro-kickball-coach-common-lawwers mother had given them that was blue fell to the ground and shattered. It woke her up and on the tv was the face of one Nick Tripplet, leader of the JARs Green Party, who was being interviewed as a candidate for sitty council. He lives right across the street from her on Thomas Ave, and that in and of itself is creepy. The across the street neighbors face being pumped into your living room and you only see it because an inanimate object commits suicide? PAY ATTENTION!!!
Emily's favorite part of the Bozo the Clown show was the ball toss game that required maluable children participants to throw a ping pong ball in a series of buckets to win cash and fame a glory.
I hope you enjoy the clip I've put up, Emily. I reeaaally do...

So, seriously, who would produce more vivid nightmares? Tin Man or Bozo?
anonymous, Bozo is the answer you're looking for. The Tin Man would simply want to meet up for lunch and talk about them with you... perhaps over spritzers?
life is good is taking over wnc. what to do. i like that you don't like life is good stuff. hopefully a store will not harvest near you... cheers to the years.
dr whomp,
i saw a documentary last night called 'mountain talk' that featured a lot of folk from wnc and focused on their speech, how most think its ingnorant, but its actually closer to proper english than most life is gooders would care to think about. in it one of the farmers was talking about life before the government and billy graham came in and told them they were poor, he said, "it was a good life, best life i ever lived." hmm... he was talking about working the land and not leaving the valley. life is gooders are packing up the cars and flooring it for a weekend. i think im going to just go ahead and blogg about this...
holy shit life is good all y'all which i think is the actual correct plural of all y'allsouthern english correctly identifying a group of folks....it is so good that the asphalt radiant temp was 111f on the surface today!! hell yea life is good/just step out and smell it, if the carbon creep has reached 15,000ft in the himalaya in it's effort to flow outward from the center of the free world everywhere in N america is doomed. breath it now for this closed system cannot tolerate much more, it's rebuttal the depletion of all that is clean incuding the great air here in the mid atlantic....someone please send me a LIG t-shirt with a smoldering earth on it, Pleeeeaaaassse!
