Well I think that being a clown means like being goofy, silly. So clowns are called clowns because they are silly.

Not really! Clowning is a very difficult art to perfect just being silly, anyone can do that.

'Clowning is the universally accepted name for it but to be really accurate the 'clown' is the white face character not used very much any more. He is the talented musician and feed. The 'clowns' are really the stooges and the 'Augustes' who are the fall-a-bout acrobats and the laughter makers. Modern clowns who dress too much and have too much (frightening?) make up are not the traditional fall-a-bouts such a Stan Laurel or Chaplin. Ragged costumes and nonsense props are all a part of good slapstick. They should not frighten children!

A ringmaster for a circus wears a top hat and a tuxedo with a coat and tails. The ringmaster might also carry a long wand for a dramatic effect. The coat is usually a very bright color that makes the ringmaster stand out from other performers in the circus.

The circus is a very popular entertainment and still is today but has much changed from animals in cages and elephants performing to acrobats the clowns were found in 2400 BCE and the circus was found in 1750 because my auntie and uncle performed as acrobats in 1850.

The poem is a response to the poem The Passionate Shepherd to His Love by Christopher Marlowe. In a nutshell, this poem is a parody of the Marlowe poem, offering binary opposites for everything that Marlowe offers up in his poem: where Marlowe offers lies, (I will make thee beds of roses", Day-Lewis offers truth "Care on thy maiden brow shall put/a wreath of wrinkles"; the four beat per line tetrameter is even ironically mimicked. The Elizabethan pastoral idyll of TPS is completely opposed by Day-Lewis's 20th century industrial imagery, an imagery which reflects the hardships of the working class man in Britain following the stock market crash in 1929; "chance employment" and "bed and board" being only some of the so-called delights on offer in the between-the-wars period "of peace and plenty." The narrator (again in opposition to the narrator in TPS) loves the character he is speaking to so much, that he is providing them with all the facts of just how difficult life would be with him were they to choose such an avenue. He wants to be truthful to them, even if he risks losing them: "thy foot/Be shod with pain." This is essentially a poem about love flourishing in the face of hardship and potential starvation due to poverty. Day-Lewis is extolling the virtues of a relationship that is based on love and built to last; one that will withstand any hardship, even "hunger" and "death."

Jokers all-time favorite thing to do is mess with, traumatize, destroy, and humiliate the Batman. He often likes to do the same things to ordinary citizens of Gotham, but no one makes him happier than Batman.

curcis is a latin word meaning ring or circle.

A leotard got its name after a famous French acrobat Jules Leotard. He always dreamed of creating the kind of sportswear that caused no inconvenience when performing acrobatic tricks. Besides, he wanted to show off his muscles and that is why leotard is so skin tight.

Okay Pennywise is a clown that tries to kill.
Stephen King made him up.
The best scene to me was when he said to Georgie come here.
And he grabbed his hand from the sewer and killed him.
It was sad but it teaches you to not talk to strangers.
And if they ask you a question ignore them.

If you mean Ludi, held at the Circus Maximus, it ranged in duration and scope from half-day events to spectacular multi-venue celebrations held over several days. There were public feasts, religious ceremonies and public feasts, horse and chariot racing, athletics, plays and recitals, beast-hunts (venatio), and gladiator fights. Sometimes there were public executions. The greater ludi at the Circus began with a flamboyant parade (pompa circensis), much like the triumphal procession (triumphus), which marked the purpose of the games and introduced the participants.

Peck's Bad Boy with the Circus was created on 1938-12-02.

The Cirque du Soleil performers practice for 100 hours each week. They can transcend space and time because they are the best performers on Earth and they can practice even more than 100 hours which is just very skillful.

It's about 2 hours and 15 minutes, and that's including a 20 minute intermission. The show started at 7:30 and ended around 9:45. The show is fantastic, by the way! I highly recommend seeing it if you can!!
