Stop clowning around, I mean it! (Anybody want a peanut?)

I'm in! I've got my clown nose on and everything...:)

Tia

Ha! I'm such a sucker. :-)

BTW are we only sporting these until Bizjam? (Which I can't attend, boo!)

There are A WHOLE LOT of members posting in this topic without red noses!! Come on, people! :)

Where are the peanuts?

Me, I really did just enroll in a clown class, but masks are part of it, so ... off with my nose and on with my mask.

Lookin' good, clowns! I'd join you but I'm not too tech saavy when it comes to resizing and overlaying images in the same photo.

I do hope to see you clowns (and more!) at my upcoming event, Turning Yucks Into Bucks. We'll be talking about how to incorporate humor into business.

Alright alright, I give.

Hmm...that's a really good point, Nancy. I totally overlooked the fact that it takes some image manipulation to get that nose on the picture!

Leif, since you started it you should probably be offering nose-implant services...yet another thing to take up all your time!

Tia

I notice we are losing some red noses, but yet gaining some. Big question, so who will be the last red nose standing?

OK off with my nose! :)

have fun at Bizjam.

I will not remove mine until the very end!!!

once a clown, always a clown I say!

I'm in till the end.

"No nose, is good nose"

I say that's a fine nose, did you pick it yourself?

Mr Vet, my dog has no nose. How does it smell? Well fortunately none of the olfactory senses seem to have been disrupted by the disformity, as the remnants of the nostril passages are still functional, so perfectly normally thank you. (not as funny when it's accurate)

As you can see, or can't, the nose possibilities are limited with my pic. However, as luck would have it, I wasn't wearing sunblock when I was in New Mexico's White Sands and did end up with a fine red nose. My bike also has a hooter, if that means the same in the US as it does in the UK.

I'm sorry but I think the nose thing would have made me think twice about joining if I saw them when I came for the first time.

Most people probably don't feel that way but in Sales we say why take the chance?

I can understand that, Ben. And the truth is, Biznik isn't for every independent professional.

Just as every organization has a niche of its own, Biznik focuses on attracting people who are genuine, and, although still professional, a little bit quirky.

That's what I love about this place. Humans are messy and weird and fun and beautiful. I love being in a networking group where that's celebrated rather than repressed.

Ben... I would encourage you to build a network group in Bozeman that would be as supportive as the Seattle Biznik group.

It's after you become friends that business referrals and real connections start to flow and clowning around actually improves that process.

I lost my nose due to this wonderful picture change.....Help :)

Biznik is unique, and that's why we love it. Having been in traditional networking venues for years and years, it has been a breath of fresh air.

I was also a nose clown myself. But I ran into a door inadvertently and bam, it was gone.

That's what I get for clowning around. But, hey, in my heart, I'm still a clown.
