I like animals.. medium rare and with a baked potato ! Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
I say let's talk about railroads that are in Michigan and nobody is forced to go to the Circus !

for the record, the animals live better than the acts or the crew does... this from several lighting directors I've worked with over the years from Ringling bros...

Sheltering & Feeding Vets and Homeless is a much bigger issue to me then worrying about the darn circus, but that's just me.

After they ban circuses, are county fairs next on the list?

GRHC - you know every night I can imagine he is in front of his computer screen sitting in his underwear swearing profusely and drinking Blatz beer combing the RailRoadFan website for grammatical errors.

Wow, I went dwarf bowling in Downey, CA back in the 80's. Only time I bowled over a 150. Got a perfect 300. It was a Hell of a lot of fun, even if you didn't include the beer.

And saw a pair of EssPee SDP45 locos on the way home afterwards.
