Is there a special Darkside glow round on Friday?
Any ideas for Disc-treats or disc-tricks?

Maddisen will be walking with me at league tomorrow. Then we are going to her Aunt's in Gurnee for trick or treating. She's going to be dressed as a vampire and I think I'm going as Scabbie the Horror Clown. So, we'll be spooking up league a bit.

Scabbie the Horror Clown

WTF?!?

Scabbie the Horror Clown

WTF?!?

You have to see it to appreciate it.

I guess.... I'm afraid to come to league tomorrow now.

My family went to the Waukegan Halloween Fest at Bowen Park tonight. Not scary, but tons of fun.
Beast (Nick) dressed as Leatherface and carried a toy (but realistic) chainsaw and axe. He scared tons of people and was an attraction himself. Patrick was a three-eyed alien from "Toy Story". When he saw Beast, he ran up to him, gave his bloody apron a big hug, and said, "I love you".
Precious, huh?
BTW, has anyone seen Rob Zombie's "House of 1,000 Corpses"?
Truly insane and wonderfully funny stuff. Not for the faint of heart or the religious right.

When Jon was in college his rigorous curriculum included Juggling 101 [I'm not making this up] and Clown 101.  Then John Wayne Gacy went and put the kibbosh on the whole amateur/semi-pro clown scene and Jon was left with all these skills and no outlet.  Except Halloween.  Lock the doors and stay inside.  That's my advice.

I have a group of friends that want to rent a bus and hit dive bars in the country from Whitewater to Madison, back to Milwaukee.  The thing is everyone has to be dressed up as a clown.  I believe scabbie the clown was talked about, but believe that he changed it to a leper clown (Simpsons fan).  I was thinking Uncle Whiskey Dick.

Yeah, I saw House of 1,000 Corpses.  Thought it was a really great movie.  Capt. Spalding was terrific, but Tiny was my personal favorite.  Ya know, Tiny fucked a stump!    

I acutallly have a friend who is terrified of clowns, so I send her pictures whenever I get a chance.  If anyone has a digital camera, I'd love to get a pic of Jon so I can e-mail her.

Well,
SHIT THE BED! (DVD menu entertainment)
Otis! Otis! Otis!
What a scary guy!

After my brush with Gacy when I was 11, the sight of a clown has been known to send me into a violent tirade.....

If anyone has a digital camera, I'd love to get a pic of Jon so I can e-mail her.

I got home from work this morning in time to take a picture of Scabbie the horror clown on his digital camera. He should be able to post it himself later today or tomorrow!

I took Juggling for a PE credit in college. We didn't get any real credit, but we were required to take 6 PE classes. I took figure skating, skiing (twice), juggling, skeet and trap and I transfered in a health class from Triton. I never took any clown classes. Scarrier yet, I learned all my clown skills in a christian clown ministry. And Bruce, you keep forgeting that you are so WAY older than I am. Gacy happened when I was in grade school, not after college!!!

I almost took an ultimate class. When I went to sign up the ultimate teacher took a look at me (I think I weighed about 225 at the time) and said "You might not want to take this...it involves running". I thanked him for letting me know what kind of teacher he was before I made the mistake of signing up for his class. My figure skating teacher was standing at the next booth and I thought he was going to fall over from trying to not laugh.
