Hello everyone <waving>,

I'm Miss Bobbie from Arkansas, USA. I've been a professional clown for almost a year now, but have only been serious about balloons for the past few months. I'm a part of some other twisting groups and have received so much help up to this point. They have all told me how wonderful this group is as well. I look forward to meeting many of you, and hopefully I can share some things I've learned along the way.

Thanks for letting me join this awesome group!

Hi Miss Bobbie - welcome to Balloon Chat!!!
You will find that latex quickly becomes addictive - I'm sorry, there is no known cure either!!  There's a wealth of information here - and if the search function didn't turn up what you wanted, feel free to ask.

Thank you so much, Lisa. I'm already addicted. It started small. I was just going to do one (maybe two) balloon creations here and there. Now it's the primary focus of my clowning business, and a couple of days ago someone in another group helped me do a parody of the Swedish Chef from the muppets (complete with cleaver and chicken) - it's sitting here on the couch next to me. My son is addicted too (he's 12) and we have a LOT of fun doing more complex creations. I find myself checking these balloon groups/forums long before email now - lol
I like this addiction!!!
