Circuses Are Evil

I have several reasons for thinking that circuses are evil. First of all, they turn a sweet, happy little boy....
...into a blur. A crazy, clown-on-crack blur.

Another reason circuses are evil: since when does cotton candy cost $10 a bag? Yes, it's fluffy & delicious. No, it's not made out of plutonium. So therefore, it should be 50 cents. With a coupon for a free dental cleaning.

Third & final reason circuses are evil: an elephant was not made to twirl around on his back legs while a scantily-clad woman throws herself around on top of him. Beautiful white tigers were not made to have a dominatrix order them around & spin on top of a disco ball.

Redeeming factor: the little Frenchman who pedaled around on his Hot Wheels-sized bicycle through the ring of fire was hilarious.

So anyway, I'm acting like a Debbie Downer, but another reason that circuses are bad is because they are held in the most germ-infested places in the world. The Savannah Civic Center was a disgusting pit of gunk, funk, & junk. And on more than one occasion Squeege decided he wanted to lick the railing. When we got home I threw him in the bathtub & scrubbed him down with Clorox. I burned his clothes. And Lysol-ed his tongue.

Nonetheless, we had a great time. We had lunch at City Market, where there were a ton of people. I actually like Savannah during the daytime. I can't wait to get back over there and spend some time on Broughton Street. We hung around with my grandparents and my aunt and uncle, who live in the Savannah area. All in all, it was a great day. But I vote to burn down the Civic Center. I might start a petition. Who's in?
