A few weeks ago Lauri and I took our family to the Ringling Brothers & Barnum & Bailey Circus at the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center. It has been almost twenty years since I’ve been to a circus and I had forgotten the scale of the performance—jugglers, trapeze artists, acrobats, high wire acts, firewalkers, contortionists, lion tamers, cowboys, dancers, motorcycle stuntmen, strongmen, clowns, elephants, horses, tigers, and the list goes on. It is quite overwhelming.
