A clown is funny in the circus ring, but what would be the normal reaction to opening a door at midnight and finding the same clown standing there in the moonlight?

A clown running for president of the United States is kind of scary too.

My reaction would be one of hysterical, maniacal laughter.

Grassroots “Kids for Obama Parade” (Organizing)
On Sunday, October 12, Washington State kids and families will parade around Seattle’s Green Lake. “Kids for Obama Parade” will illustrate one of Barack Obama’s core beliefs: Everyone’s voice counts. Join us as Obama’s youngest supporters rally their families and call for change, for a better America. At 2 pm, rain or shine, children and teens will express with words and drawings their hopes for the future of America on “wish flags” that will be mailed to Obama. The first 300 kids will be given a helium balloon, an expression of solidarity. At 3 pm, the “Kids for Obama Parade” will skip, toddle, stroller, rollerblade, pedal, and red-wagon clockwise around Green Lake in a cloud of red, white, and blue balloons and a garland of kid-made wish flags. How to prepare? If possible, bring home-made signs and wear red, white, and/or blue clothing. That goes for moms, dads, big brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, grandparents too. Please spread the word.
Time: Sunday, October 12 at 2:00 PM
Duration: 3 hours
Host: Erika Berg
Location:
Green Lake (Seattle, WA)
beside the Bathhouse Theater
7312 W. Greenlake Dr. N
Seattle, WA 98103

Also these:

Written by a Muslim, for Muslims; all quotes are sourced. The writer states his intention in the second paragraph:

I intend to demonstrate and prove that the concept of "al-Taqiyya" is an integral part of Islam, and that it is NOT a Shi'ite concoction.

It looks like this may be a coulrophobia thread.

p.s. I'm not exactly a newly-hatched lizard, but rather, one that has shed old skin for new. Formerly known as wannabuyaduck, with a nod to Joe Penner, I had been thinking for awhile about how I would really like to put up a fox avatar, having always liked foxes with their looks and nature combining something of the dog and something of the cat (when I was a kid it would annoy me that the foxes were almost always the villains in stories and cartoons) -- and nowadays, most of my gainful employment involves qwerty work, so it seemed fitting enough. The question of brown fox or red fox was solved by the fact that though I am in one of the bluest of areas, I have more of a red-state state of mind. So here I am, same lizard but new skin -- not a sock, not a troll!

Nevertheless, I'm still able to smile tonight. I'll be able to pay my rent for next month, cover the bills for this month, and I'm going to a gathering of like-minded types tomorrow. Life is... well, let's just say it doesn't suck.

Dude. You should really seek the advise of a financial planner - you and the Mrs., bring the kids - all 17 of them.

A stock here or there might make you rich - or unbelievably f*cking poor.

Get your dollars allocated according to a risk/reward spectrum you're comfortable with, and f*cking leave it there. Update your goals annually. If your planner is reluctant to have an annual meeting, move your dough.

It is also "likely" that Obama knew that Ayers and Dohrn were unrepentant domestic terrorists when he first met them in 1988...
It is also "likely" that Obama was criminally involved with Tony Rezko...
It is also "likely" that Obama's paid surrogate Acorn is heavily involved in voter freud in several swing states...
It is also "likely" that Obama not only knew about Acorns voter freud efforts, but funded them...
It is also "likely" that Obama was sitting in his pew with his wife and children while Reverend Jeremiah Wright was spewing his "hate-whitey", "hate America" rhetoric...
It is also "likely" Nancy Pelosi awarded her husband's company several government contracts illegally...
It is also "likely" that Dianne Finestein awarded her husbands company several government contracts illegally...
It is also "likely" that Obama was working with known Saudi terrorist supporter Dr. Khalid al-Mansour...
It is also "likely" that Obama knowingly sent his Muslim outreach director to meet with Hamas and Hezbollah...

Her husband left her for a younger woman.

After 17 kids she was in all likelihood crazy. Duh.

What is the market going to do tomorrow?

If you don't know - then why are you in the market? Especially if you if you are 55 +?

The markets do nothing but tremble on the weekends, either form sheer terror or rapturous delight.

17 children? What was that about?

Seriously I know a French woman how did bear 17 children and was awarded a Mother of the Country award. Her husband left her for a younger woman.

If I recall, I may have once claimed to be 87 years old, here, with a vast brood of children.

It may or may not be true.

I think I made a comment about that...but that was regarding the habits of East Asian markets.

Boy, times sure have changed. We had a secret location, password and handshake for our LGFOhio meetups. ;)

Well the actual lat and long are reserved for those who want to go for it - sides ya' gotta get thru the gate with the password. They are armed.

No, she isn't. She very kind and continues to work hard. Her kids, though, are another story.

Wouldn't one tremble from terror but quiver with delight?

The markets may be closed, but we're working this weekend. Customers are freaking out. Mostly, they just need reassurance. I don't mind OT - I'm non-exempt. :D

then get yer butt out here - we would like to meet you.

I've thought about meeting other Lizards, but like zombie, I tend to be protective of my online identity. I prefer to have few connections between my face and my comments.

re: #70 rawmuse

You sound like me on the last full time job I had. I couldn't wait to get laid off.
I was quality control of a software product. I would break it, write up how I broke it, then the programmers would fix some of the bugs, all the while selling the product like it was ready to roll.

I knew the company was going down the tubes. I was right. Today, they are history.

Been there, done that. The second full-time IT job I had. Only, I didn't leave of my own volition.

Then again, the jerk who fired me was caught two months later in a monstrous lie, when he told his boss the department's assignment could be done in two weeks. The rank-and-file then told their boss's boss (on their own) that two weeks didn't have enough hours to get the work done... more like six weeks if everyone worked 24/7.

Jerk was gone very shortly after that.
