Before Road Trip, before Barry Ween, there was Frumpy the Clown! And hey, isn't it true that every child wants his or her own clown? Forget ponies and puppy dogs and hamsters, a clown is the true prize. And not the creepy kind that's gonna freak you out and make you soil your shorts either, but a chain-smoking, cynical, anarchist clown who's more interested in sticking it to the stuffed-shirt establishment than getting a job or focusing on the finer points of personal hygiene. When Frumpy enters the home of a typical American family, the children, Brad and Kim, are ecstatic. Their parents, neighbors, and local law enforcement, on the other hand, wish he would go away.

Frumpy is not your typical clown. He doesn't do birthday parties, he isn't in the circus, and he's never run for public office. Instead, Frumpy is a chain-smoking, cynical anarchist who is more interested in sticking it to the stuffed-shirt establishment than making balloon animals or performing in the center ring. Whether he's filling in for the elementary school music teacher, dishing legal advice to the kids, or going paintballing with the guys, Frumpy entertains, enlightens and always surprises. Judd Winick's early newspaper work tells of one clown's attempts to assimilate into suburban life, or at least get suburban life to assimilate to him.

Japanese minimalism and European formality. The best combination of two decent cuts when the jacket is frumpy and you want to blend into the dress code. Wide, billowing sleeves lighten the overall weight of the solid fabric. A belt around the waist adds softness, femininity and playfulness to the look. The collar around the neck and the pouch pocket will fit us well, we can keep a handkerchief in it, or as romantics flowers. In two colour options. Black- like a shadow that blends into us easily, floating through society and leaving only glances of wonder behind. Grey- a slightly lighter color that shows the courage and strength of women, a chic look and confidence every step of the way. Washing program for cotton, 30 degrees, 20 minutes

FRUMPY MIDDLE-AGED WATCHMAKER TO ARCH ENEMY OF THE NAZISCorrie ten Boom defied Nazis as a member of the Dutch Resistance. She was probably the least pious member of her family, yet she also helped hide Jews and young Dutch boys in her family’s ‘Hiding Place’. In February 1944 the Gestapo arrested 51-year-old Corrie and her entire family. One year later she was back home but her father and sister had died in prison. Corrie had survived internment at Scheveningen in Holland and the notorious Ravensbrück work camp near Berlin that meant almost certain death. Not resting she threw herself into service. She started rehabilitation facilities in her own Holland, then compelled to forgive, she served the same way in Germany. Then she traveled to 66 countries with the message of Christ. She owned two dresses, refusing money and living off royalties. For she collaborated on books about her wild experiences.She died on her 91st birthday. She had made thousands of appearances and written books that sold in the millions. Billy Graham had produced a popular movie about her. The Queen of Holland knighted her. Israel honored her as one of the ‘Righteous among the Nations’, i.e., a non-Jew who saved Jews during the terrible Holocaust years.

Dust jacket notes: "When shy, frumpy, unhappy schoolgirl Mary O'Brien decided that she must 'be miserable or become someone else' and reinvented herself as glamorous Dusty Springfield, she also liberated a remarkable singing talent. this new biography follows the development of that talent from early music-making at home to a brilliantly successful professional career. The sixties were Dusty's decade, a time when - musically, at least - she could do no wrong. But there was a price to be paid. Dusty's relentless quest for perfection and her refusal to compromise, together with the daily pressure of having to live out the role she had created for herself, took their toll. When her career lost its way in the seventies, she descended into drug and alcohol abuse, and she was dogged by speculation about her sexuality. But throughout it all her musical reputation and the loyalty of her admirers remained undiminished; and in the 1980s, after a long, hard struggle to re-establish herself, she enjoyed a period of success - only to be deprived of it by breast cancer. Dusty Springfield looks beyond the tired cliches and journalistic shorthand to offer a detailed and rounded portrait of a deeply complex woman, and provides the first major assessment of the musical career of a singer whose reputation is higher now than it ever has been."
