comickal: fears for tears

(No, I did not mix up the word order in the post title.)

You know, usually the police have been called, so that they can stand ready to arrest someone, while looking terribly stupid that they didn't come up with the answer first.

..."eight sides"?! Does it have corners? Beveled edges? What? Inquiring minds want to know!

Look around
Sidewalk's white
Slick and bright
And the crazy sounds of winter!
Snow and salt underneath your feet!
Walkin' in the street today
It's bound to be a better way
Than sidewalks you dread
Slip, fall and land on your head...

Oh, the fears of a clown
No, don't want none around...

(Sorry. So sorry. But the Muse, she cannot be resisted! Here, this will make it all better:)
