The Year of Nothing™
THEN On February 3, 2012, I published my first post on WordPress: it was a video by Die Antwoord, and the post was titled One Tablet A Day—it was viewed 4 times, with no likes and no comments. Le Clown‘s character wasn’t born yet; this site was about a man who was married to a woman living … Continue reading
“From this moment on, you shall now be known as Sharkbait”
…So what if we watch too much television, and we’re somewhat unbeatable at Trivia Pursuit Pop Culture edition – and humble? On with the post.

A Word From the Author
Hi! My name is Eric. I’m the guy behind Le Clown. I’m a French-speaking Montrealer. I don’t live in an igloo, and I’m not really a clown. I just play one on the blogosphere. In my real life, I don’t refer to myself in the third person. I’m happily married, and I have two kids. … Continue reading

Mad Men Don’t Want No Sad Men
It’s a sad, sad day. My H&M straw fedora hat has gone missing, which makes me half the hipster I used to be, and with only 6 days left to the season premiere of Mad Men Season 5, there’s no way I can get my groove back in time to channel Madison Avenue’s admen in my living … Continue reading
A Hymn of Praise for my Wife
There was a time when things were shaky. There was a time when bipolar/depression made this house shake. There was a time when Chuck Norris would have bumped into us and cried a little bit from the inside. And there was a time when I thought of a project to release some much needed endorphins, … Continue reading
James Blake – A Case of You
While watching The Awakening this week, my wife told me it was ok to have a crush on Rebecca Hall. I don’t know where she got that idea, really… I mean, I know I have exquisite taste in wom[e]an, and I might did breath heavy one time or two during the movie when Rebecca Hall … Continue reading
