The Circus Is In Town

The Greatest Show On Earth® is here. Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey's circus is where we'll be at on Sunday afternoon. Courtesy of a friend of mine who bought us tickets to the show. Ordinarily I would not buy tickets to a circus because I feel sorry for the animals. But I must admit that when I saw the Ringling circus when I was a little kid, I was really impressed and enjoyed it a lot. So I had to think about my objections to the treatment of circus animals or seeing my daughters' happy, smiling faces as they watch the show live. I figured my conscience would survive a couple of hours of animal commercialization. We shall see.
