I always loved clowns as a child and had some clown dolls. Was never afraid of them. I'm sure you made lots of kids happy doing that. Go you! Liesel K.

I've always...Dear Liesel, Thanks for the info. I've always wondered why adults were so afraid of clowns. I assumed that it was because of the demonetization of clowns in books and movies. (sometimes, I just want to slap Stephan King!) I have been a practicing clown for years at our church until the last year or two. The children loved us, but we had to stop since several adults were afraid of clowns. It is such a shame to lose that link to childhood.<br />mitzi77598https://www.blogger.com/profile/15547883191182445295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3359613645675472548.post-35190468915656096152018-11-04T20:05:28.373-07:002018-11-04T20:05:28.373-07:00Creepy for sure..

So I blame Hollywood for their corruption. <br /><br />As for Jack In The Boxes, that is a creepy story! A devil popping out at you while chirpy music is played. Not right. Not right at all! Thanks (I think?) for sharing this interesting little tidbit. Now I'm going to go hide and suck my thumb.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741349796538313075noreply@blogger.com
