My good friends Zander Cannon and Kevin Cannon of Big Time Attic are going to be posting items to the 700 Things pool regularly as well… they just started with the 700 Clowns pool, doing me the honor of illustrating two of the clowns I named! Click on the images to see the full sized images on Flickr (and leave comments). Subscribe to the Big Time Attic blog to catch their weekly 700 updates (and a lot of other great content).
Clown #340: Slappy the Clown by Zander Cannon
Slappy the Clown has a hard life. He just slaps people, and frequently he gets slapped right back. He’s been forcibly removed from the big tent, the sideshow, and now the entire fairground. Forced to panhandle, he’s finally found where his disability is truly a blessing.
Clown #341: Jingles the Clown by Kevin Cannon
No description on Kevin’s yet… hopefully he’ll add one later…

Here’s my contribution to the 700 Bunnies project from the larger 700 Things project.
Bunny #253: Bugsy Siegal.
Getting his start selling fermented carrot juice during prohibition, Bugsy Siegal’s activities soon spread out to other illegal ventures. The garden heists were bad enough, but it was his entry into the lucky rabbit foot trade that got him into serious trouble. With the law closing in on him, he high-tailed it out west, where, using his ill-gotten gains, he opened his casino, the Golden Carrot. It wasn’t long before his history caught up with him, though. He was found dead in his penthutch in 1949, strangled with his own ears.
