New Circus act .....if we can train him

Well,I think that every circus should have an animal act (my apologies to Cirque de Soleil) and we might just have one..in a few months. We now welcome Otto the mini long haired Dachshund to the family. He's cute and currently very much a lap dog. The training has begun to make him the best dog act since Lassie! It should take a few months for us to train him or a few weeks for him to train us....we'll see what happens.

More as the tricks develop!

SNOW!!!!!!!!!

SNOW everywhere...the entire place is covered in at least 2 feet of snow. Alot of NYC  is basically shut down due to the weather. What's a clown to do? Rehearse...Rehearse....Rehearse.
Just 2 months away to the Clown Jamboree and we have started to work on our group skit and each of our single skits and acts. At this point besides the family group skit it has been decided that this year Phineas is going to do a single skit and enter the magic competition, and he and Pupperdoodle are each doing an act in the talent "star search" competition. The props are coming together and the scripts are being honed........now its practice, practice, practice.

What do Jewish Clowns do on Christmas?

Well every year we go do clown rounds with the team! Happily this year they managed to discharge most of the kids in time for the holiday. So there were only a few kids there. But of course their parents were with them opening up presents and playing. So there we were, singing and playing...and we even got a nurse to do the hoky poky with us. Lots of fun.....Happy Holidays to all and a happy and HEALTHY new year!
