Default Forum-based one clown skit

Do you remember

















When Road-side advertisements were split up

















And strung down the road for miles















Making you wait and wonder what the next sign















Will say?




















Yes?


















Then You're Old!

Its like when you are driving south on 95 every few miles you will see a sign only 300000000000004567216 miles to south of the border and then anouther sign only 300000000000004567215 miles to south of the border so when you finally get ther you will stop buy som fireworks and talk about how much you hate those signs that you ahve been readin for the last 10 hours

You know, this could be done with cards that you hold up to be read by the audience. Slowly turn the cards after letting people read one....at.....a.... time.

Tim, I'm stealing your idea. That sounds great! I must write a skit around that......
Get out an umbrella, 'cause I'll be brainstorming! (ouch.)


Actually, I do remember those billboards from our many cross-country trips (moving all over creation.). I always liked them. It was fun to anticipate what came up next. Plus it kept my brother and I quiet for 5 minutes, so I bet my parents like those billboards too!

Would that be an inside out, upside down umbrella?

Just be careful. If you're think too hard you might get openminded. And when you have a hole in the head your brains might leak out. No one likes a clown who's a leak.
