Broke the Magic Number

I have broken the 50k mark. 50,200 words have now been written about klowns, albeit at a moderate to slow pace. But slow and steady win the klown race, according to that old children's tale. Remember the one? The mime and the klown decide to have a race. The mime, having abnormally sub-human long legs, takes off at a sprint from the starting line, but the klown decides to pedal a very tiny unicycle. The mime wins the race by hours, but the klown later tracks him down an eviscerates him and steals the medal. The moral of the story is, the klown will eviscerate you and steal your medal, so just let him win.
