All Aboard!



Tomorrow morning Jim Elliot and I are going down to Sarasota for breakfast aboard the Circus Train.
But with the absolute understanding that this time there will be none of those bullshit stories!

Without the stories why bother

What time is this silly soiree

Hope it's NOT TOO EARLY

The stories are generally much more

fun than the historical truth

They remind me of an ancient show

titled "Can You Top This"

Why to you think Barnum was such a great success. I belive Barnums spirit lives on in most of the TV Info-mertials that end with "CALL NOW"

You'r right about Barnum, Jackie. He was the father of modern marketing. The catch phrases such as, "held over by popular demand", "for one week only", "when it's gone, it's gone" were all in his bag of trick. Today's marketers may not realize it but they are still following P.T.'s lead.

I took that photo in the Blue pie car when the show was here in Atlanta with the two baby elephants as the big attraction.

Quite a crowd this morning & it was

very nice to attach faces to names

Loved the tale of the free elephants

I hadn't seen Tito in many years
