Great idea

 After I die, wherever my spirit goes, I'm going to try to get back and visit my skeleton at least once a year, because, "Hey, old buddy, how's it going?"  -Jack Handy

I think I might be a clown.

But which one?

From the Clown Wikipedia entry:

The most prevalent character clown in the American circus is the hobo, tramp or bum clown. There are subtle differences in the American character clown types. The primary differences among these clown types is attitude. According to American circus expert Hovey Burgess,^[where?] they are:

• The Hobo: Migratory and finds work where he travels. Down on his luck but maintains a positive attitude.
• The Tramp: Migratory and does not work where he travels. Down on his luck and depressed about his situation.
• The Bum: Non-migratory and non-working.
