Ringling Park 1976 #3 (slide)

Charly asked Barbara to baby sit this tiger cub for a while until he could find a home for him since he was genetically defective.
He was a nice cat, no problems.

Buckles: Explain "genetically defective" for a towner like me, please.

Buckles said...

In a word, deformed.

Capt, is that the cub that was on the show with us? I always thought something wasn't right about her but I never wanted to say it to Charly!

Buckles said...

No this one was only with us for a month or so.
The Samels had a tough Jaguar they wanted us to take but I passed on that one.

Buckles,
When did you get into the PC language? Too bad we can't call anything out of the ordinary by what it really is.
Next thing we will have to rewrite a lot of the early route books and many ads in "Billboard". Although, I can see why some people would offended by some of the names and titles.
Pretty soon we will not be able to call the 300# plus people, so prevalent in the shopping malls, fat.

We're not fat, just gastronomically effective! ~frank (Still not 300#, but couldn't resist this one. :-)
