BREAKING:  Larry "Bozo" Harmon:  1925 - 2008

Oh, dammit.

We lost an icon today, Denizens.  Larry Harmon, whom I know for a fact you all know better as Bozo the Clown, has passed away of congestive heart failure.  He was 83.

He wasn't the original Bozo, and certainly there have been others who donned the orange-frizzed wig, huge cherry-red nose, the red, white and powder-blue outfit and the size 83AAA (his words) - but no one played the character better.

"I felt if I could plant my size 83AAA shoes on this planet, (people) would never be able to forget those footprints," he said.

The Realm's prayers are with the Harmon family tonight.  We loved Larry, and he will be sorely missed.
