Masquerade?


Hello Fans!. I'm Hoboclown. Last night ,I asked Flash Mc Cool about the origin of his current costume.This is what he told me, "Many ages ago a great King wanted to find out what his subjects thought about the kingdom and how he could help them best. The king decided to travel incognito amongst the common people.If they recognized him, they would be reluctant to offer up real criticism about him as a ruler.So, one Halloween he decided to masquerade as a clown and go out amongst the people. The king disguised himself with a wig,a long multi-colored robe, red gloves and a big red nose.Before he sat out on his journey he consulted his famous clown friend,Chuck Darwin, an alumnus of clown college class of 1836.Chuck advised the King to be very careful not to use his royal methods in interacting with common people, who can be very suggestible.The king heeded Chuck's advice and went out to greet his people. Unfortunately,the king disguised his appearance but could not disguise his royal outlook. You see the king spoke by decree . That is, when the king spoke- what Wasn't suddenly WAS . As the king walked amongst the people he wondered why everyone walked forward and wondered what would happen if everyone walked backwards.Suddenly, everyone began to walk backwards.He then thought there were too many small orphan children in the kingdom and thought if they were older then they could fend for themselves.Suddenly, everyone in the kingdom was old and no children could be found.The king then saw the homeless street beggars and thought how nice it would be for them to have their own homes and a bountiful existence.Suddenly, the beggars were all gone and more kingly castles sprung up in the center of town.The clown-king became distressed and began to ask the common people what they really needed to be happy.The commoners advised the clown-king that they needed someone to look up to;to be a friend; to tell them what to do; to help them make a living ;to protect them and to blame for their misfortunes.The king stopped in his tracks and thought-"these people need a king!" Suddenly, his clown costume disappeared and he stood before the crowds of commoners who quickly carried him back to his castle to rule over them. The orphan children re-appeared, everyone walked forward again and the king sat on his throne in the only castle in the land.The king summoned his clown friend,Chuck Darwin, to his court to explain.Chuck advised the king that people need to adapt slowly to new challenges before they can significantly change and increase their chances of survival.The king learned that masquerading has magical effects and needs to be prescribed cautiously! Like the great king ,I decided to use my pauper-like hoboclown detective costume to enable me to bring about magical effects with masquerade- when needed ..." ________ There you have it fans.
