1. flower clown

scene: tommy's restaurant
found gem: flyer for flower clown, a man that comes by every thursday night to make balloons for children of various shapes and sizes. closer inspection of the flyer and you realize that some of the balloons are, in fact, shaped very peculiarly.
interview: our waitress seems to be oblivious to the fact that this is the least bit creepy. apparently, he really enjoys himself with all the kids. apparently, he takes an annual trip to thailand, of all places, to make balloon-evening-wear. apparently, he is the sparkle in everyone's day. this children's entertainer was so amazing, the people at the next table needed to INTERRUPT ("I don't mean to interrupt...") our conversation to speak of his numerous virtues.
conclusion: i have become an expert in laughter-stifling.

Hay, your talkin' about me. I am Flower. This year I didn't make it to Asia because I became a father in November to babay Millie. Next year the 3 of us will visit Thailand, Nepal and maybe India. I could not stay in Cleveland all winter so we did spend a month traveling the south-west of the USA. We are back and I have returned to Tommy's, Willoughby Brew Pub and Cowboy as well as doing parties.
