Bring in the Clowns
A friend who blogs was wondering if it's legit to recycle old material. Why, self-plagiarism is a venerated tradition in the letters! I blogged this previously in Myspace, before essentially abandoning that virtual trailer park:
Long before American institutions like Clarabelle or Ronald McDonald, the venerated art of scaring the bejesus out of little children took shape in circuses across Europe. I submit for your approval, the evil clowns of the continent. Why stick with just four horses for the Apocalypse? Why not use a tiny car?
Nothing makes a child laugh quite like a man with eyes painted on his eyelids, along with some paedophiliac hobo makeup
Cirque de Soleil meets "A Clockwork Orange"

I like the monkey guy on the left. Can't even imagine what his real face looks like.

"Insane" is the new "funny"

Not so much scary as sad.

Eats actual human flesh

Just plain evil

Give it up for Grock

Much more, including freaks, dancers, animal acts and carnival ride images are at Circusmusem.nl

If only I could find an online version of the hot priest calendar. Perhaps that can be a little scanning project for me in the coming months...
John Wayne Gacy dressed up as a clown. Enough said.
