The Mother of All Posts
“I prefer using full sentences with Tiny Geek, so she can form her own words and practice her own sentences. I want to talk to her when she is feeling frustrated, so she can learn to communicate her feelings. I have to remind myself that she is just three, and I want to maintain my … Continue reading
What’s On a Clown’s Mind
Being Freshly Pressed and featured on The Daily Post in the same amount of time it took White Baby Jesus to create the world packs a punch: your kids call you “Sir Clown Dad”, your ego wants a corner office and its own parking spot, and your distant relatives start selling your baby photos to … Continue reading
A Chlorine-free, Recyclable Paper Anniversary
It was sunny. It was a potluck. It was outside, in a national park.The Ringmistress and I, Tiny Geek were all wearing Converse® shoes. We planned it around an eco-friendly theme: the party favours were made out of clay and flower seeds, the decorations from old magazines, a guitar was used to point towards the festivities. … Continue reading
Jealousy and a Father's Love
Reblogged from Black Box Warnings: I run. Ok, honestly, I think about running while walking around my neighborhood in San Francisco. This is a green city as you might know. We compost everything here. But when I’m walking/thinking about running, I’m green—not in the way you think, not in the same way as my fascist … Continue reading
Le Clown the Magnificent Roadie – Part I
I first met Valérie Jodoin Keaton back in 2004 – I was 99 years old. Le Clown was a tad nervous… Although I was meeting Valérie for the first time, I knew who she was, and I was not going to let her know that being The Dears‘ keyboardist and backing vocalist made Le Clown gush … Continue reading
My Limp Dick in a Box Has Facebook-Blue Balls
It is time to remove the cock ring from the Dick in a Box concept, and allow the flow of blood to nurture other ideas… It was good while it lasted, wasn’t it, Jen, Gemini Girl and Meizac? But Le Clown gets bored easily… Just ask Sock Monkey… On with new toys. Now that I got your attention … Continue reading
Guest Blogger – Meizac
Meizac and her daughter made an impromptu visit to Montreal last weekend [I've been waiting for her blog post pertaining to the time she spent with Le Clown and The Ringmistress... to no avail. Wanker]. We had to prepare a special meal for Meizac, as she is a vegan [Merriam-Wesbter’s definitions: 1- A mythical tastebud-less beast from … Continue reading
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
Guest Blogger: Madame Weebles
I’m excited. The culprit? Madame Weebles: Reason #1: She’s magnificent. Reason #2: After much googling, I found a picture of her. I’m sharing. Reason #3: She thinks Geddy Lee is hot. Geddy Lee is Canadian. Le Clown is Canadian. Therefore Le Clown is hot. Reason #4: Madame Weebles published a guest post on Black Box … Continue reading
A Clown on Facebook
Le Clown is about to hit a pretty special number on WordPress. I won’t say more, but expect a riddle – and the A Clown on Fire revamp I promised my Carnies on May 16. Should there be a contest? Should I add a new permanent guestbook? Should I comment on a post of yours, … Continue reading
