HAPPY BIRTHDAY GREG DESANTO!

Very happy 29th birthday wishes go out today to the Grand High Exhaulted Mystic Ruler; The King of Soap himself, Mr. Greg DeSanto. Mr. DeSanto is respected from sea to shining sea (and as far away as Morrocco and Hangzou) by those "in the know" not only as a performer but also as a clowning director and historian.

If Feld Entertainment were still bestowing the title of "Master Clown", I can think of no one more deserving of the title.

I wish that I'd been able to post the video I've been working on, but the camcorder that I use to transfer video into the mac has died and so my birthday gift will have to wait a few days.

Sorry, Brother Raccoon.

Now, in honor of Mr. DeSanto's birthday, let us all now gather and sing our Alma Mater...

From the hallowed streets of Greenpernt,
To the shores of Sheepshead Bay,
From the Verrazano Narrows,
To Canarsie across the way...
We have come together, one and all,
In fellowship to commune,
And to glorify the Grand Exalted
Brotherhood of Raccoons.

Fingers to fingers, thumbs to thumbs, watch out below, here she comes.
