Historically speaking humans have always had a special interest in music and long to be surrounded by it as much as possible.

In Defense Of Clowns – Jokers, Politicians and the Games They Play
Jokes, comparisons and cartoons of a political nature have been a staple of campaigns and party slogans in America for centuries. Recently, there appears to be a surge in the media suggesting similarities between politicians and clowns. As a circus clown I would like to take this opportunity to set a few things straight.
Sorry Tale of My Mustache
