I've always loved to make people laugh, with jokes or antics. In school I was often referred to as the class clown. In early 2007 my shop started laying people off. It seemed ominous, because the UAW shop I worked at for ten years closed it's doors in 2002. I was only working 3 & 4 days a week and things were getting kind of tight. I thought about starting a welding or machining business, but it takes a long tim to build clientel. Then Chloe, suggested that she start doing birthday parties as a clown to make some money on the side. I eagerly offered to help and the planning just seemed to snowball. My musical talents were immediately effective, and we both began studying balloon sculpting and parlor magic. To make a long story short, we are a success at clowning and the business is growing almost daily. We do festivals, birthday parties, family reunions etc. and we are having a ball doing it. I can't think about quitting my full time job, but retirement is looking better!
