Old box of photos: Send in the clown

2 May

Don’t bother, she’s here.

Notable about this picture is that only one poor schlub is really trying to win the costume contest at the 1984 Halloween parade. Everyone else is doing the usual over-11 costume of “hobo” or “50′s girl” or “hooker.”

Everyone except the clown at the far right.

Hang in there, little clown…even though all you got was an Honorary Mention, life gets better for you.

    I find it hard to believe that NOBODY has commented on this…

    I have been away for a while, trying to move from blogger to wordpress has been a daunting experience (missing images, no idea why).

    Poor little clown. I guess the clown should have called a friend or two…

    :.”Hello?”

    :. “Hey, it’s me, I was wanting to know if you were wearing a costume to the thing. i am going as a clown”

    .: “Oh, well I was going as a student, with, you know… normal clothes.”

      I think nobody has commented because they’re afraid of Little Kim-Clown. :)

      For Google’s claiming that so few Blogger users used the FTP service, it seems there were quite a few. Blogger -> WordPress is a hard move. I’m glad I did it years and years ago before it became even more complicated!
