"I just want to sit here forever and never leave." Then The Clown did something he never does: he turned his head to look at me directly. "Do you think they'll let me do that?"
I'd been putting on his clown makeup the entirety of his career. I never forgot when one of his celebrity friends said The Clown was the loneliest person he'd ever met.
Last month The Clown confessed, "There's no more funny in me." He sighed. "It's not me they love, it's the act."
Now he's dead. What was it all for?
