The Association of Clowns expects to win damages of over one million Euros to compnesate for the years of humiliation and professional distress.PARIS - A HISTORIC court action was started here this week. The plaintiffs are the French Association of Clowns who are accusing the defendants, Banana Skins of falsely masquerading as a comic device.

René Pou-Pou, the clowns’ spokesman explained:

"Eets incroyable. Pour trop longtemps ze skins de bananes avez a comic reputation completement false. Combien de people savez vous who have slippé sur un skin de banane? Huh? Zero! Avez-VOUS ever slippé sue un banane skin? NON! C’est un grand deception qui avait lasté trop longtemps. Nous voulons putter le record straight."

The Association of Clowns expects to win damages of over one million Euros to compensate for the years of humiliation and professional distress caused by completely failing to slip on banana skins in front of audiences.

"Ze trauma of ne pas getting a laugh devant hundreds de peuple lasts éternalement. Il can ruin votre reputation. C’est pourquoi nous seek redress."

As he departed, René’s trousers fell down, he stepped in a bucket of paint and then disappeared down a manhole.
