Tom remembers his childhood friend, boxer Bobby Chacon
Despite being maybe 5' 6" and maybe 125 pounds, he was a street fighter as long as I knew him, but he didn't show an interest in boxing until after high school. He showed a quick aptitude for the sweet science and turned pro after only a year. A publicist, trying to distinguish Bobby from the bazillion other Latino fighters in Southern California, had Bobby enroll at Cal State-Northridge. He became (for a time) "Schoolboy" Bobby Chacon. -- Tucson Weekly
Bromley column: Send out the creepy clowns
But I also know several people who have a real fear of clowns. It’s no accident some of fiction’s great villains – the Joker of comic books, Pagliacci of opera, Pennywise of “It” – wear makeup. A University of Sheffield study once found children are frightened by clown-themed décor in hospitals. A psychology professor at California State University-Northridge found that masks and makeup drive this phenomenon, as young children are “very reactive to a familiar body type with an unfamiliar face.” Hence certain voters’ fear of the orange guy running for president. -- Barbaboo News Republic
