They All Float Down Here

About Me

BEEP BEEP!
Hi! I'm Pennywise, the dancing clown. Thanks for stopping by my profile, I really appreciate it.
I spend most of my time sitting in my bungalow in Derry reading, playing the trumpet and looking after my cat, Socks.
I've also just started to play the acoustic guitar, but I'm not very good at it yet.
I also really enjoy my job as a professional entertainer for kid's parties. Whether it be to amaze, amuse or simply keep the kids out of your hair, Pennywise is your man.
I also used to appear in the very early McDonald's advertisements, until the company execs figured that Ronald McDonald would be an easier replacement as they wouldn't need to keep writing out their checks to Pennywise The Dancing Clown.
'Easier on the wrists' they used to say. Bastards.

My Interests

I love to read in my spare time, I only manifest myself into a clown every twenty seven years, so I have a lot of spare time to get things done.
Children are also a really big part of my life. I don't seem to meet many adults though, which isn't that bad, but it tends to get a bit bland after a while. Nobody to really talk to.

I'd like to meet:

Stuttering Bill mainly, but the rest of his friends together too would be interesting.
I also wouldn't mind meeting Michael Flatley because he was a big inspiration to me and my dancing when I was younger.
Obviously, my dancing went in a different direction to his, but I feel that his commitment and determination was key factor in his rise to success. I wouldn't mind doing that myself one day. Ronald McDonald, so I can stove his crap make-up into his face with an iron.

And remember they all float down here, and if you want to float too click on the add button its much appreciated and thanks to all who do.

Music:

Lately, all I've been listening to is my Damien Rice album, O. It's actually surprisingly deep, the lyrics mean a lot to me as he is singing from the heart. Insane Clown Posse also inspire me because of the way they smashed into the music business, promoting the clown way of life. 'Homies' was quite a good song back in the day.I'm also a big fan of The Four Tops.

Movies:

I really enjoyed the Bill & Ted movies when they were first released, so they're probably my favourite of all time.
But at the minute, I'm trying to get around to watching Toy Story 2 (I still don't know what happens in that one) and Jurrasic Park 3.
I've seen the first two and the third one looked quite good, but still haven't seen it around to buy. I don't trust buying things off the internet. There are some bad people on here.

Television:

I don't really get many channels because the rates are stupidly high. I can make do without them really, as I say, I like to read more. But at a push, I'd have to say that Malcolm in the Middle (the earlier years) is a great show. The children in particular look like people I could get along with.

Books:

Now to talk about something interesting. I've loved almost all the books I've read over the years. 'The hungry caterpillar' was a great book, if you haven't read it, I suggest you do sometime. I'll not ruin the plot for you. Obviously I'm a fan of Stephen King, although his short stories are better, I'd have to say I'm partial to one or two of his novels.

Heroes:

Obviously Michael Flatley. Amazing dancer, although I think I'm starting to catch up in terms of style. Bit of work to do to match the speed...
I guess Doink the Clown, of wrestling fame, because he proved to the world that you don't mess with clowns. Especially ones in leotards. I also look up to a number of people, past and present, who have played quite an important part in my childhood. Shout outs go to Jack the Ripper, Charles Manson, Henry Lee Lucas & Ottis Toole and of course, John Wayne Gacy.
I love you guys.

I don't like Ed Gien though, he was just weird...
