    Kurt Cobain the clown looks interesting. That’s one individual who wasn’t never happy. He sure has great music. Thanks for sharing this! 😀

    Now these clowns I can live with! I went to a scare fest with my daughters’ last night and they all came out of the woodwork!

      As one would hope and expect at Scare Fest. 🙂 Do you all do that trick or treat thing? I read some Aussie’s post last night that there is a lot of resistance toward it in Oz because it’s so American; and my aunt who lives in the Netherlands (How awesome is that name … Nether Lands) says trick or treating is slowly picking up steam there.

        Yes, Netherlands is a pretty cool name 😉 We do trick or treat. We also decorate our houses and have parties more and more in recent years, but nothing on the scale of the US. I’d love to experience Halloween in America. Our family have a party every year, but it’s mainly for the kids. Here Halloween tends to be a kid thing. The scare fest was a first for me and I held my daughter’s hand the whole way round – she was the one supporting me though…I was petrified! 🙂

          Sounds awesome. A great memory maker for the kids. Happy Halloween to all.

    Don’t recognize all of ’em, but most. And as I’m not American, that says a bit. 😀

      I’d expect nothing less from a literary intellect such as yourself. 🙂
      Happy Halloween, my friend.

        I’ll accept it, although without comprehension. 😀

    Very nice! I like Franz… And Tom reminded me of G.Bush 🙂

      Now that you mention it…he does. Ha, I wonder how that would make Tom feel. Thanks, DotedOn. 🙂

        Tom would feel miserable as a clown 😀

          I agree. And then he would take that misery and turn it into another heartbreakingly beautiful masterpiece for us.
