Striking Vikings and Chicken Salad.

We were waiting for a bus ...

We were waiting for a bus the other night near 5th and SW Broadway.

I noticed a peculiar hole in the fence. What in the world could cause a hole that big...and fer Chrissakes why???There"s a friggin highway down there.

I followed the trail of clues and found this next to the hull of a burned out automobile. I would have brought the bones I found too but there weren't vegan. Not only did I solve the riddle, I also got a groovy prize to drag home and annoy my girlfriend with. Now I have a bumper for all those stickers people keep giving me.

We love working at Dante's Downtown

I'm allergic to this but more allergic to turning down a meal!~
My facepaint looks weird in bright lighting because it's designed for the lights on stage.Also since my golden age began I grew out of the angry angsty unhappy face and moved on to a happier critter by far.

Painting a bi-racial couple's chests for the amusment of many. They are bi-racial because he just got here from Canada.

J-Peace shows her chest impression...

And her boyfriend's...

Tampons and clown noses ...cannon ammo of course.

A very attractive cigarette girl who was even more attractive because she wasn't actually selling cigs .

Brat and Beer

Clown Rock starin it up for the Circus Project.

Great turn out for Cirque du Stiffy.

Making sure we have enough Coloring Books for the gigs.

We gotta be fierce about it. It's a fantastic, up-hill struggle to sell a bunch and then watch all the cash go to rent and bills. Luckily they paid for themselves last year. This one is pg-13, we started makeing one that's rated G when we started doing lots of kid kigs. Right now that stuff is in the form of coloring pages that we give out.

Luckily she can do that and still watch her "Stories" Quantum Leap and Stargate.

We love loving you!

I'm very excited to see the Story Time kids at Sound Grounds! best part of the week.

I asked Olive what our Thanksgiving Turkey looks like this year.

It must be a good design because this nice fellow saw us taking pics of it and gave her $10 for it. It will last him about 6 months gradually getting smaller.

Clowning the 1 year aniversary of ...

They are a nice little shop nearby who asked us to come and clown for them. We stood outside being funny and making balloons for a few hours today. It was to celebrate the first year as a company.
They are all about: happy, healthy, local toys and goods. i love the place and they seem well connected with the parents of the neighborhood.

As one of the parents left, she sent a text to all her friends that we were there. Soon kids started showing up out of the woodwork dragging parents and yelling "Balloons~".

I hope some of the other places noticed what a plus it is having us on the team.

I would be getting cool threads like this for my kids if their mama wasn't out of her mind,

Across the street.

We like working together but we like breaks even more!

Portland supports cool local shops!
