    Coming This Weekend. A new Website from the AllThingsMike Universe. These are a couple of the composite artworks I’ve already created for my latest website endeavor, called, simply, “Clowns”. I’ll post a more comprehensive article/announcement later in the week. The site is still under construction, but the layout and some historical information is already online, plus links to some artists who paint clown paintings, and about 8 of the composites I’ve already constructed. The composites use established Clown artwork already online, arranged in different ways. Above is a Ringling Brothers poster and a photo of Mt.Rushmore, with clowns, of course. I’ve always been fascinated by the ability of clowns to not only amuse, but to frighten as well. So get ready for Clowns. If you want a preview of the unfinished site, feel free to CLICK HERE.

  • Hiya Mike! :wave:

    Since my minutes are so crammed full right now, I’m dropping by on my lunch break (while eating lunch), and I just had to say it…

    Stop clowning around!

    :fun:

    BE blessed!

  • :laugh: I’ve always loved clowns and clown art. I almost love drawings of clowns more than the performances of clowns.  Isn’t that odd.

  • Clown Mountain is too funny. I go back and forth on clowns…depends on the clown. :p

  • Love Clown Mt. Oh, must I bring my own popcorn when I visit your site or are you selling some?

  • hail back, still here, or maybe this is hell already and we just don’t realize it?  broke a damn tooth….(back one say hallelujah)…

  • :wave: just wanted to drop in and say hi. I’mn sorry I haven’t gotten around to the I.I. Topic. I have to go back and read what it was over. Hope all is well with you. Peace out and take care.

  • Dear Mike,

    Thanks for the kind prop you’ve posted. It’s easy to see how fast you put your thoughts together into a nice composition. I really appreciate very much that you granted me some of your precious time.

    I blog mostly for my own satisfaction. I do post some of my philosophical thoughts, poetry and personal journals to share, however, I am not actively soliciting comments. When I get one or none, it’s o.k. I know how busy many bloggers are and I am one of the less busy ones being a new retiree. I quite understand time is of the essence and if some comments come like yours that are really nice and long, I savor the moment. I celebrate people like you who take the time to blog for your satisfaction, for sharing and for publishing. Publishing one’s works is a great form of celebration–oneself, one’s gifts and endowments. I can see you’ve got a lot of gifts. I am glad that you take the time to share them through your postings.

    How long will I be blogging through Xanga? I am not sure but for now, it seems satisfactory to do this.

    Still in Seoul, I am awaiting my husband’s final work week. We will be doing a summer world tour starting the last week of June. Our tour will take 42 days altogether. We will be slow but that’s alright.

    I come from the Philippines, so does my husband. Both of us are international educators. We have been “world citizens” since I can remember, even before we worked at Silliman University in the Philippines, well before graduating degrees then moving on into overseas assignments. I think it must have been our close contacts and work with the North American missionaries in the Philippines.

    There’s a little bit about my persona in the Internet. You can google me and I’d pop up sometime. I do remain my humble self–after so many years of traveling and spending years in education and lifelong learning, I can only say that one lifetime is not enough to know everything. We are privileged to enjoy our gifts, share with others, explore our own intelligences and those of others, try to be wise and so on. However, speaking for myself, we can only be lesser than the Lord Himself but that we can make Him proud and hopefully pleased.

    Take care Mike.

  • Clowns are terrifying to me.  I’ve had a cute smiling porcelain one since I was a baby that doesn’t frighten me, but I think it’s because he was one of my first.  Then there was Harold, who I got as a toddler in England.  He’s also exempt from the horror.  It must have started in third or fourth grade when I went to spend the night at the house of the girl across the street.  She and her brothers decided to watch Stephen King’s “It,” the movie remake.  As with most of us who saw that movie before we turned 10, I’m terrified of clowns.  I’m terrified of several things, including the dark – they always make my heart seize a little bit.  I never let the fear get the best of me, though, and I’ll walk through the dark calmly and look at clowns nonchalantly.  I know the fears are baseless and hope to overcome them.  Very fun composite pictures

  • Upon further consideration, this is just upsetting.

  • Love the new place… some clowns I adore some I am terrifed of; :mad: I knew a very very bad man who was a clown at child parties:mad:

    I had many friends who were Shrine clowns and made many sick kids smile

    it’s a mixed bag … the addition looks like a good read
