Death of a Clown

Ronald got fired from his job as a short order cook because of his terrible fashion sense. Next he tried running away with the circus, but crashed the clown car. He lost his job as a security guard when he tripped over his own feet and let a burglar get away.

Finally he tried piano tuning. He had a good ear, so things went well on his first couple of jobs. Then he hit a real challenge. With an iron wrench in hand he crawled all the way into the piano. This time for sure he’d get it right. Too bad it was an electric piano.
