I'm only afraid of them because they seem to be multiplying...and some of them have keyboards.

Just trying to add a little flavor today that's all. It has been so doom and gloom in here lately.

One of his victims, Rick Johnston, disappeared after going to a rock concert on August 6, 1976. He met Gacy, who offered him a lift. He was then taken back to Gacy's house where he was raped and strangled.

It's either this or 14 pages and counting of Mike Alessi? I'll take the clowns anyday.

US Postal has a commercial here in Florida that has a postal worker that is asked to return a clown that was a gift because the clown freaks out the whole family. The commercial just plain out cracks me up when at the end, the clown moves from the back of the house to the front on his own between the clips! Waay funny; and creepy also. For me, the Burger King guy is kinda spooky.

Actually very few people fear clowns, it is just a myth that it is very common.

The only ones that scare me are the ones we elect.

I had to do an in home estimate for a guy that wanted windows. He was drinking when I arrived he was somewhat belligerent and had no personality. I was creeped out his house was a mess and i knew something was wrong. That is about the time I saw the clown suit in the closet. This freaking guy was either a serial killer or wanted to be. I sold him the windows and got the hell out of there! Clowns scare the hell out of me!
