Continuing from my previous post, I had ended with:
Butt there is only one area where Pinocchio doesn't fit, he doesn't really fit the Bozo/Joker stereotype, butt a little wooden boy with a very serious dilemma: how to become real... so it's no joking matter. Butt Pinocchio jives in other ways: the alliteration with Pinto, and the connection with Disney (given that Disney did make a film about Pinocchio. So I get the sense that there's more... where clown comes in, so I google "wooden clown", and as soon as I see it, I remember:
It wasn't quite like that really... there were obviously a lot at play in the last post that enable Pinocchio to move to the forefront of my mind. There was Chris's surname "Wood" which is part of a recent and prolific "Wood/Tree/Forest..." pattern-cluster, and then there was the cropping up of the names "Bozo" and "Joker" on the Deaths in 2015 site (that we were 'guided' to)-- two deaths occurring in the last couple of weeks!! And then the name "Pinto" (note the same "pin" prefix in pinto and pinocchio). All of those clues were stewing on the back burner of my mind until "Pinocchio" came to me. So no, not magic, butt my inner twin and the inner twin world's influence, and of course my small brain finally becoming adept enough to "get it".
- Why do I get the feeling that December 15 has more to offer?!... and why does the 'wood' puppet/boy Pinocchio suddenly crop up in my mind?!

Punch and Judy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch_and_JudyMr. Punch; Judy; The Baby; The Constable; Joey the Clown; The Crocodile; The ....Crone (2006, p.1065) suggests that since the puppets are carved from wood, ...Ah yes, Joey the Clown... the crude and lewd wooden puppets. So what are the inner twin world hatching up on this little stage?! Note from Punch's wiki page:
- A plausible theory derives his name from the diminutive of Italianpulcino (chick), on account of his long beaklike nose, as theorized by music historian Francesco Saverio Quadrio, or due to the squeaky nasal voice and "timorous impotence" in its demeanor, according to Giuseppe (Joseph) Baretti
