“The Carnival’s back in town”, said Mother, casually,
“you aren’t still upset about the thing with the bear, are you?”.
“Of course not” snapped father, “but I do hope your sister’s
brought her own beard trimmer this time”.

That probably explains where my car went. The clowns must be using it for their act.

It’s a sideshow, dear. Not a sidecar.

it was a flesh wound. but just bearly…

The bear was just looking for the man who shot his paw…

Is the whip for the bear or…???

Parenthesis: Thank god. I was beginning to worry that everyone thinks the post is about bears.
pleasedtomeetgnu: Oh, the bear doesn’t need a whip, dear. He relies on Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson to really motivate the audience.

Reminds me to trim before my big date tonight. Don’t like whips.

I know - whips are so difficult to conceal about one’s person. Especially on a date. Still, you could probably get by with just a set of handcuffs and a handbag-sized truncheon…
(Ooer, best of luck, dear. Of course, now you’ll have to return and tell us all about it.)

Opted for the oh so discreet silk tie (matched the handbag)…

Ooh, exercising a little restraint, I see. Excellllent…

Who got to eat the cotton candy? Or was that the problem? Just wondering.
Smooches,

It’s so hard to find a good somatologist. And one who’s versed in taxidermy. (I’ll give you her number on Tuesday!)

Tart!: After all that sword swallowing, neither had much of a stomach for it, I’m afraid.
Dolface: Tell me about it. I tried to persuade the House of Wax to fit Mummy in for a body wrap this morning - and they told us to get stuffed.

A family that slays together… wahaha. I think I am going to needle point that and hang it above the fire place in my home.
Loved this one.

Well, you know what they say: “home is where the hearse is”.
(Thank you.)

*applause*
Now that you mention it Mandy, that would be a good side venture hey Mrs. B, needle points?

Roxilla! I don’t know, dear - people seem a little nervous around my sewing casket. Perhaps they’re afraid they’ll get pins and needles.
