Every once in a while, people's paths cross in strange ways and sometimes some very good things come of that. Such was the case in a telephone call that I received at my "Day Job" from an irate customer with a billing error.

I called the customer back a few days later with resolution to the problem and in the course of the conversation, discovered that he was going to be participating in a "Do Dah" parade in a few weeks at a Seaside Town not far from where I live.

I decided to go and see the parade and meet my formerly irate customer.

I made the trip to Ocean City, N.J. and was delighted with what I saw and learned.

This site is for my "Look-a-Likes", Dale Walter and Dennis Moriarty, both of Canton, OH.

Come visit a while, and share the joy they bring and the good they do!



Look Alike?
You betcha! Could have fooled me, and I grew up with Stan and Ollie!

Dale "POGO the Clown" Walter, Sr., and his partner, Dennis "Sparkie the Clown" Moriarty, both of Canton, Ohio, bring joy and laughter wherever they go. Members of the Son's of the Desert Utopia Tent #176, Trinity Masonic Lodge No. 710, and Coshocton Masonic Lodge #96 ,NAZIR GROTTO CLOWN UNIT and assorted national and regional CLOWN associations. Dale and Dennis have been partners for more than 15 years now, and have performed on live TV, given interviews promoting Laurel and Hardy festivals, and have served as the Grand Parade Marshalls honoring the birthplace of Oliver Norvell Hardy - HARLEM,GA and just returned again, from Milledgeville,GA "FEST OF VILLE", Oliver N. Hardy was bitten by the moving picture bug while he was operating the first theatre in Milledgeville --"The ELECTRIC THEATRE"

Their uncanny resemblance to the famous duo of the 1930s movies was discovered quite by accident when they were asked to entertain ath the Alzheimer's Association Annual Awareness Breakfast. The Association was doing a Roaring Twenties theme and asked them to dress like Laurel and Hardy.

The rest, as they say, is History!

"The Boys" do charitable works too numerous to mention here, and have been know to take on many personnas. From left to right, Pogo the Clown, Santa's Helper, and Sparkie the Clown.

If you are fortunate enough, as I was, to make the aquantance of these two fine gentlemen, give them a hug from me.
