In revenge, let me introduce you to Ouchy The Clown, a professional dominatrix (if a guy can be a dominatrix, I suppose) who specializes in intimate shaving with a straight razor.

The main page of this link is worksafe, if you don’t mind your IT department maybe knowing you’ve been looking at the web page of a clown who’s into professional BDSM. Some of the other pages are not. You have been warned.

Enjoy the circus, folks.

I went to school at Capitol Hill, right across the way from the MLK center.<br /> <br /> I remember our second--maybe third--grade teacher sat us all down and explained to us all what a "rumor" was, as by that point the story had spiraled out of control to include guns, machetes, even entire <em>armies</em> of grenade-wielding clowns. Ahh, the rampant minds of youth...<br /> <br /> I had all but put this out of my mind until you posted this today... wow. Total nostalgia wave. Oh man! I remember that!

He has a beautiful, dulcet voice. He's 6'4". About 2 bills. He'd have my little boy all nestled in tight, and then sweetly sing those words. It slayed me every time. I love that song.<br /> <br /> Note: this Dan of whom I speak has been one of my best friends since 9th grade and is affectionately (and universally) known as Stinky Dan. <br /> <br /> Also note: ironically, he has impeccable personal grooming and now sells insurance.
