A moment of Silence for Bozo

Bozo the Clown, dead

a Childhood icon, who alternately delighted and terrified children across the US in the 60s and 70s is dead.

Clowns are an oddity of American culture I don't fully understand. When they are at quite a distance, they can be amusing and entertaining but up close they are just plain weird.

Clown reminds of Stephen King's move "It" and scares me a bit.

Great seeing you Jim.
I didn't even imagine that was the first time we met, although I mistook you from Aaron's brother.
