Otis draws a discrepancy between real and not-real clowns. The latter are all fakes because they have to put on make up and costume to be clowns. The former are clearly a nightmare, as they are born in clown face, hair, and feet.

End of the semester sunshine: Student popped in to say that my class prepared him to do better in his others this semester and complimented, "You have me fighting battles on paper, they have me digging foxholes." #metaphor

My kid asked to do his turkey disguise project as a vampire bat so I figured out how to do a vampire bat but then we went to the zoo the next weekend and I learned that vampire bat is an actual kind of bat so my 4 yo schooled me. #turkeydisguiseproject #vampirebat #googlyeyes #tomtheturkey #otislove
