Can't sleep. They'll eat me.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I've never liked the concept of clowns.

The idea is that if you have baggy trousers, a large red nose, and enormous feet you're going to be funny.

It didn't work for Mussolini, did it.

10 Points to anyone who gets the reference above.

Scary all scary and I will stab them in the eyes with a fork! I'm glad I can't see them anymore.

Well, to tell the truth, I don't get what this has to do with Mussolini.

But baggy pants and enormous feet worked for Charlie Chaplin. And he was funny and subtle all the same. Not to forget that he got thrown out of the USA for being considered a dirty commie, which makes him all the more OK in my book.

What are you talking about?  Trump wears makeup and has clown hair.

Clowns can't even get nutrition right.
