[Harpoetta]

Rule 1. I will keep my acts, performance and behavior in good taste while I am in costume and makeup. I will remember at all times that I have been accepted as a member of the clown club only to provide others, principally children, with clean clown comedy entertainment. I will remember that a good clown entertains others by making fun of himself or herself and not at the expense or embarrassment of others.

Okay, so in the clown code of ethics, which I had never heard of until you put in the link, the first one says what is stated above.

1. I was not in makeup, or, since I don't use makeup, costume. Nor was I performing, I was simply sharing some jokes with a friend.
2. Sometimes adults need to have some fun too.
3. I am Irish, and there was a joke on the Irish. There were some in the original list that I did not put in because I thought they actually might offend people.

I did have a couple other points that I opted not to put in because they might offend people who are on the "Political Correctness Police Squad".

Besides, Tim, Fitzwilly, Grandpa Weatherbie, K G, R D, Saphire Sue, and Scruffy all laughed, so they couldn't have been that bad, Fitz is moderator, and a good friend of mine, if he thought it was off-color, he'd have told me so by now. I think that if Markie thought they were that bad, he'd have said something to me, too, by now.

Some of my other jokes make fun of blonds, I'M A BLOND! Some of them make fun of women, I'M A WOMAN!
