Clowns were one of the first ..

Things I could draw. You see my uncle was a clown in the rodeo and my first time watching him he had this donkey he called all us young buckaroos to come try and ride this donkey. I was five years old at this time. I watched as all these young boys got bucked off. Not a chance I wasn't gonna get on this donkey. Boy after boy was bucked off. Then my uncle stops and looks up at the crowd. "I don't know what is wrong with you buckaroos my little nephew Joey can ride this donkey. Joey come on down here". Well you see I trusted my uncle Charlie completely. So off I went down to where he stood with his donkey. " First thing is you have to ride this donkey backwards" and he set me up on it backwards. " And next you have to steer him with his tail" and hands me his tail. "Now there is only one way to get this donkey to move" , "BITE his tail Joey" soo I bit down on his tail. The crowd goes crazy laughing. And then Uncle Charlie leads me out of the arena riding on the donkey. Clowns will always have a special place in my heart. Probably why clowns were one of the first things I drew.
