Right Oblique! ..... this used to be the Opening Style in most Elephant Acts! .....the command was ".....Bleek! .....then "Change!" and they would all make a left turn and flop their trunks the other direction! |

Kenya,Nairobi,Imron and Durban. My only exposure to working zebras, I was fortunate to have these Jim Clubb animals. They were great.
Not sure what the original command may have been, but I just said a "whoaaaa, heads!" for this trick. They were quick, and this trick always got an Oooo and a giggle from the crowd
(Kinoshita Circus, Japan)
Very nice Patricia
Thanks, Chic. And you'll notice I did not do the 'head in the zebra's mouth' trick...
And for that I'm grateful
I likely asked you before
if you live in the Hugo
area or somewhere else
Shame you're not here in
Sunny Sarasota by the Sea
(Actually it's the Gulf)
I don't live in the Hugo area. It snows there sometimes in the winter. I feel about snow as you feel about the head in the mouth trick.
It's just a personal preference, there are many people who think snow is just fine. I would never pass judgement on those who believe mukluks are acceptable winter footwear to flip flops.
I get it Patricia as I have
flip flops for all occasions
Unfortunately as I am only
semi retired I occasionaly
have to endure snow & ice
conditions from time to time
as I still maintain an office
in Times Square as a working
Broadway Stagehand where I
witnessed record breaking
temperatures last weekend
Fortunately no ice or snow
Was sure glad to get back
home on Tuesday
1 of the 4 major Scene Shops
that build for all of Broadway
is in Calgary where I have
been many times installing
effects elements in scenery
I visit I'll never forget
was several years back when
I boarded my initial flight
out of Sarasota at about 92
degrees (F) & arrived after
my connecting flight at 40
below zero (both F & C)
