Hi .... the name is jake and I've been doing my act since the mid 60's under the name of Hey-U. I worked out of Pittsburgh and did shopping malls, fairs, schools, and just about everything else. I did magic, plate spinning, balloons, Punch & Judy, and vent .... (moved my lips enough to embarass myself, but the kids still liked it). I'm not clowning professionally anymore, but still enjoy keeping up with it.

Hey-U -- I like that name! Somehow I think being a clown is different from being a dental technician or an engineer. You can "retire" from those things but can you truly, seriously "retire" from being a clown? I bet you will always be a clown whether you earn another dime from it or not. You sure could teach me a lot. Stick around!

Hey-U!

What a great name! Sorry to hear you're not clowning anymore, but so glad to see you've joined us! Looking forward to lots of pearls (buttons, beads, safety pins....) of wisdom.

Welcome aboard!

Thanks for the invite SaphireSue. I'm now in the insurance business and most of my appointments are in the evening. I'm seldom around at night, but I will be happy to join you when I can.
