I found out a last weekend that a friend of mine can juggle. That’s a cool skill. When I was a kid I worked with a guy who could juggle. We were bag boys at the grocery store. He would juggle people’s oranges and apples as he was bagging them. People frowned on his antics, but in hindsight, he was pretty good. He never ran off and joined the circus, but he could have. Yeah. He was good.
So, like, do people run off and join the circus because they’re skilled at circus acts, or do they learn the skills after they join the circus? Like, did the lion tamer work at the zoo and practice after closing time with the lions when nobody was around? Did the trapeze guys work as a lineman for the power company and practice swinging on the wires at lunch?
Is the fortune teller at the carnival a former economist?
Merry Christmas as you juggle all your activities over the holidays!
