A marshmallow double crossbow. What more can be said? On Hammacher Schlemmer, bonus points for correct pronunciation of said merchant.
Breakfast defense, egg soldier cup, available online at REMO general store.
Quirky cool tees from Threadless. So many good ones I wouldn't know which to choose, but with their $10 and $5 sale prices, I guess our clown could get a sock full.
Instructions for just about everything presented through a gallery of graphic art. Not enough tips for your clown, add their newest edition More Show Me How for even more how-to. Both available on Amazon.
Like and Dislike stamps to make paperwork a breeze and provide the instant ability to publicly judge everything around him with the flick of the wrist. Designed by Nation.

Not satisfied with just one stache style? Additional nose warmers can be purchased and changed out with a few buttons. From Beardhead.
Arrested Development, the full series. Because I'm convinced there still hasn't been a funnier show on television. Already has it? Box sets of 30 Rock and Modern Family come close. All on Amazon.
Moon boots for men. Adult anti-gravity airkicks put some spring in his step from Edmund Scientific.
Finally to capture his best moves and funniest moments - a Flip Ultra HD cam. With seemingly limitless custom design options, crystal clear picture, digital zoom and a built in USB plug, he'll be a YouTube sensation in no time. At the Flip store.
