Diary of a Clown/Another Cheating Story
By Susan Zwirn aka Polkadots the Clown

Even though this experience didn’t happen to me, it would be a waste for the story not to be told. This happen to Willard, a big burly gay black guy who worked with me at “Western Onion. “Western Onion” (changed name), was a popular singing telegram company in the 1980’s.
Willard was to do a singing Gorilla gram for this executive at an office somewhere in Midtown Manhattan. He was scheduled to do it at 5:00pm and ended up running late and got there closer to six. He walked into this big empty board room with a bunch of dark empty offices around. He looked at the name on one of the offices and saw it matched the name on the telegram. Anticipating that his recipient was probably gone for the day, he started to head out, when he suddenly heard some voices coming from the darkened office. Already attired in his Gorilla costume, Willard quickly took his bouquet of foiled Balloons that read “Happy Birthday Daddy” and “Happy Birthday Sweetheart” and looked into the window of the office and noticed 2 men stark naked getting it on. At that point, Willard (still in his Gorilla costume) angrily swings open the door and says “Which one of you gentlemen are Mr. Goldberg?” A very naked and embarrassed man indicated that he was. Willard then abruptly handed him the bouquet of balloons and the telegram and said “HERE”, Happy Birthday from your wife and kids!” and walked out slamming the door behind him.
