Oh, yeah, I can see why that would creep you out. I guess I didn't
get close enough to any clowns to see that.

You were *on* the Bozo show! I remember going to our local kid-TV
show; the host wasn't a clown but a cowboy. It was a big deal for us
then.


No, I wasn't on it, my two younger sisters were.

What was the cowboy show? I remember a cowboy show in my area. One time
the guy from the show came to my public library once and I got to shake
his hand. (This was a big deal to me in my small town. ) I lived in
Massachusetts, but near Rhode Island, and the station where the show was
broadcast was in Providence, RI. It might just have been a local show.

We just had the Wallaby and Jack show. My big memory is of one time someone
swallowed their gum and the Captain went nuts making sure their eyes weren't
bad as a result. He showed cartoons, had guests, and did some interviews
with the kids. One of my fellow students was almost famous because he got
to be on the show. I wish we had programs like that for the kids now.
