View Full Version : Hi!
Jobee 10-06-2004, 01:22 PM Hi, my name is Jobee and I live in Chattanooga, TN, USA. I always wanted to be a clown when I was a kid but then my parents started screaming at me to go and find a real job. After about a decade of being down on myself, I found that job. Athletic training. When I moved in with a buddy of mine he was asked to perform as the easter bunny for a children's home and I help him with the makeup. When he asked how I knew so much about stage makeup I told him about how I used to want to be a clown. His direct responce was, 'Why the *BLEEP!* aren't you doing it?!?!?!' After that little boot to the butt I does red nose first back into clowning. Now I'm a grad student at University of Tennessee: Chattanooga stretching myself too thin and leaning on clowning to help keep me of a happier mind. :oD Now my goals are to get my master's, improve the inner city school I am working for, find a clowning mentor, and not lock myself into the psych ward doing it. :OD

Jobee the Clown
Picaburu 10-06-2004, 03:39 PM Hi.... Jobee...
Very interesting your history, because mine it's like yours... But, I hadn't done the idea to be a clown before... In fact, when I was a child, I hated clowns.. (I prefer the death than to be in front of one)... But, now I simply love it... I don't only know why I had this fear of clowns...
But, it's past and now I'm in the other way...
Success in your journey

Nice to meet another southerner.. Hey as far as psych ward goes, a little crazy helps to make a great clown right.
Jobee 10-07-2004, 11:59 AM Like I keep telling ym class mates. Thank God I'm out of my mind, you know how boring I'd be if I wasn't? :OD
TinyTiff 10-20-2004, 01:53 PM Nice to meet you!
Hang in there- you'll look back on those college days with envy that you could get it all done on just four hours sleep!

Jobee 10-20-2004, 02:02 PM Sleep? Sleep? What is that?

Jobee 10-21-2004, 12:42 AM Ah yes! Undergrad, how could I forget? :OD
Scruffy 10-21-2004, 05:10 AM As I watched my little guys take their naps over the years I have come to the conlusion that naps are wasted on the young!
Sleep is what my 19 year old daughter majors in :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
My fifteen year old daughter has her masters already! :) Straight from the University of Snoozology in Sleepers Slumber, Snoozisota....:)

Scruffy 10-23-2004, 05:41 AM Years ago, I heard a qoute by Erma Bombeck, 'Now I know why tigers eat their young." The older my three get. The more I understand :D
I still wouldn't trade them.
somday they will grow up and move out then they come back and keep coming bnack and coming back
Scruffy 10-26-2004, 04:57 AM That last statement reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw.
Parents: Avenge yourselves. Live long enough to become a burden to your children!
Thats sort of my goal..... :D
mr_buckaroo 10-26-2004, 11:07 AM i saw one once that was along the lines of our kids have left and we joined the witness protection program.
Gilbert 10-26-2004, 03:05 PM "Grand children are a parents chance for REVENGE!" :twisted:
Load 'em up with stuff to make 'em hyper and send them home! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Jobee 11-01-2004, 08:31 PM No, my sister got revenger for my parents. I had my niece and my nephew at my house when I was a senior in college. My nephew had his terrible twos when my niece turned 4 and my mom was going through menopause.
"Yeah mom, I'm sleeping at the library.....again."
mr_buckaroo 11-02-2004, 12:29 PM wow jobee and you lived to tell about it. was there any lasting mental effects on your part. o yea your a clown now lol 8O
Gilbert 11-02-2004, 12:46 PM Yeah, his case is hopeless but not serious!
Jobee 11-02-2004, 12:49 PM Well, that and the therapy sessions where I curl up into a ball and twitch. :OD
mr_buckaroo 11-02-2004, 12:55 PM theres a clown gag in there someplace just waitin to get out.Think Think Think.
Jobee 11-02-2004, 05:13 PM *laughs!* Maybe, one clown on the psychiatrist's couch and a Sigmund Freud like clown harrassing being harrassed by his patient.
Gilbert 11-04-2004, 05:03 PM *laughs!* Maybe, one clown on the psychiatrist's couch and a Sigmund Freud like clown harrassing being harrassed by his patient.
The Freudian clown would have to ba a White Face with the Auguste on the couch. You have the makings of a great skit there Jobee!
Scruffy 11-04-2004, 05:20 PM I can see it now "Guten Tag.I'm am Doctor Freidrich Von Nuttcase,Und I Vill be conducting a routine Extermination of your Menial capacaties,your Cerebal latex. Your grey matter As it is...
Do I need to take off my shirt?
Jobee 11-04-2004, 05:51 PM Nien! Nien! I think you need to call down! I will apply a slight anasethic. *Pulls out large mallet and whacks other clown in the head.*
mr_buckaroo 11-04-2004, 06:14 PM and malet bounces back and hits him on the head knocking him silly and stagering around in circles. not hurting the first clown cause his head is to hard.
Jobee 11-04-2004, 06:35 PM And God forbid the Shrink steps on a banana peel and Freudian slips.
mr_buckaroo 11-05-2004, 12:17 AM i can picture it in my head now, and now im on the floor laughing lol
Scruffy 11-05-2004, 06:02 AM DOc: Ach Himmel! ( Lands on Floor) CLown picks up bananna peel, Doc Lays down on the coouch
CLown: Are you okay Doc? What happened?
Doc: I szlipped an a bandana peel
Clown: Wow! a freudian slip.
Clown:(sitting in doctors Chair, Pick up the note pad and pencil, Puts mallet next to chair)
SOOOO Doctor, tell me about your childhood?
Jobee 11-05-2004, 11:40 AM Doc: Well I my earlyest memories was of a child in the Gesundheit Mountains...*Realizes what he is doing and stands up* Get out of my seat and back on to the couch!
Scruffy 11-05-2004, 09:41 PM Doc: Ve Shall dispene mit ze amenesia and jest hypnotize you . (Takes out pocket watch )
Doc: Now watch ze watch un tell me vhat you see.
Clown: A watch going back and forth?

clown : well quit zpitten in my eyes with your pppps and it would be easyer to do
Scruffy 11-06-2004, 06:09 AM Clown: (Stares intently at the watch, moves head back and forth in time with the watch.)
Doc: You are gettiing.... verrrry Schleepy, ...Schleepy, ...Your Eyes ischt getting verrrry

Clown: Nope, now I just see stars....
Doc: (brains him again) Ischt zat better, Jah?
Clown: (Little boy voice) Daddy, weed me a stowy peas....(Passes out on the couch)
Jobee 11-06-2004, 09:56 AM I'm imagining a more natural faced clown with tall gray hair and gray moustache bonking an over the top auguste. This has a LOT of potiential. :OD
Gilbert 11-06-2004, 06:59 PM You could have the Doc hypnotize himself and the clown remain concious, realize the Doc is hypnotized and play tricks on him etc.
Jobee 11-06-2004, 08:57 PM Having the doc cluck like a chicken when ever the word 'have' is said or have him think that he's a six year old girl.
Scruffy 11-06-2004, 11:10 PM Keep writing guys. I've got a couple of Ideas, But I'd like to hear other. Btw, I loved the Gesudheidt mountains bit.
Scruffy 11-07-2004, 08:03 AM Doc: Hmmm, Now lescht shee... Hello little boy, und how arrrre you today?
Clown: What little boy Doc? (Rubs Head) OHHH, Anbody got an Asprin?
Doc: (In a stage Whisper) Hmmmmm Dish appears to be a tough knut to crack, ja! Hmmm,I tink I vill have to haul out der big guns. (leaves office)
Jobee 11-07-2004, 08:22 AM Danke, Scruffy. I knew those German classes would take me far. :OD
Scruffy 11-07-2004, 11:46 AM Bitte, Mein Herr.
Jobee 11-07-2004, 12:15 PM Yah! :OD
Scruffy 11-08-2004, 09:44 PM While Doctor is gone; clown begins to look around the office. Maybe starts to tango with one of those lab skeletons(with foam clown nose attached). , flirts with it, Ad lib, go through the desk, smoke a cigar, -whatever.
Doctor returns to the office with a strange looking machine with a spinning pinwheel type disc in the center. The Doctor turns on the machine( Disc spins, sounds come out lights flicker) and aims the clowns face at it. The doctor stares at it himself, and puts himself into a trance.
Clown: Doc, Doc, are you okay?
Doc: (In little kid voice) But mommy,I don't LIKE the pink leiderhosen...
Clown: Turns to the audience and pantomimes laughter, covering mouth.
Jobee 11-08-2004, 10:24 PM Doc begins dance with an umpha band in the background and pulls the other clown to stage right.
I think we have a script here. :oD
Ijust sitting her laughing at this opps fell out of my chair
you might add a giant pill and the doctor can say i have good news and bad news the good news is this pill will cure you the bad news is you dont swallow it
Scruffy 11-09-2004, 05:42 AM One Idea I had was while the doctor is out; a second clown comes in for some reason and thinks that the first clown is the doctor. That way when the doc comes back, that would be the blow off and chase the two clowns out of the office. I like the Pill idea, and the Oompa band, and the six year old/clucking chicken idea. which way to take it now?
Scruffy 01-18-2005, 05:51 AM Guys, I was re reading this. It's just too FUNNY to let it die. Shall we see if we can finish it. I'm going to try re formatting it and making it it's own topic. but thought I would bump it up here.
You could walk in with your giant thermometer and you wouldnt have to say a word
Scruffy 01-18-2005, 06:38 PM A good thing to do to the third clown, Same with the giant pill.
"Gee Doc, I don't think think I can get that thing under my toungue." That's okay. That isn't where this one goes".... YOU DON"T MEAN??!!" Yep, raise your arm as high as it gan go. :wink:
Jobee 01-18-2005, 09:04 PM Thus said clown passed out in horror :D
Scruffy 01-18-2005, 10:11 PM CLown impersonating doctor get down and proceeds to look over clown number three and trys to check him over, holds wrist up to hears and says "Hmmm, I don't hears a heartbeat I guess I'll have to try artifical innoculation (Help with a better world the funniest one would make this a blue act :roll:)and tries to put is mouth over clown three.
Clown three sits up and says Wait! I'm not that sick!
"DR" Clown asks, well what are youdoing here for?
BTW, The third Clown could come in to deliver something to the doctors office!
Jobee 01-18-2005, 10:15 PM THe clown sits up and knocks the rescuing clown out with a headbutt. :D
Scruffy 01-18-2005, 10:23 PM Going back to the clown shrink.
Clown shrink starts acting like a little boy, But mommy, I vant the horsy for mein Birthday, pleas,can I have der horsey, vith the vinny, und der clip clop, und der .... Looks at clown, hello dere, mister. How did you get here?
I was gonna ask you the same thing.
Jobee 01-18-2005, 10:28 PM The shrink starts hopping around like he's riding a horse around the couch. From behind the couch he finds a cowboy hat and pts it on.
Gilbert 01-19-2005, 05:09 PM THe clown sits up and knocks the rescuing clown out with a headbutt. :D
Perhaps a blow up mallet would be better here. I think the headbutt may be seen as being nasty rather than a gag.
shady_lamps 01-20-2005, 04:03 PM The clown could get his hands on the doctors sethascope and start to play with it. He puts the two hearing pieces in his ears, not knowing what the machine does, then shouts into the other end and then pretends to die of shock (mock) then gets up and sighs his relief. :D
SouthwestSam 02-18-2005, 04:03 PM Hey Howdy Jobee,

SlobbyBobo 05-03-2005, 09:38 PM Hi folks my name is Slobby Bobo. I am new to the clown profession. I tried setting up my own website theslobbybobo.com but it does not appear to be working to well for business. If you would like to learn more about me and my past you can find it there. Basically I am a young clown, only 25 and looking to spread the cheer to all that I can. It's not the best paying job but I enjoy making others happy. Thanks all.
Spread The Cheer
saphireSue 05-04-2005, 04:33 PM HI and welcome to the group SlobbyBobo, what type of clown are you?, Hobo, auguste ?
