    I remember going to a circus when I was very small. Then, as now, I was too terrified to watch when people risked life and limb, by walking a tightrope, being shot out of a cannon or standing upright on a galloping horse. I also don't like wild animals being forced to do tricks especially the 'lion tamer'.  So, I won't miss it when it shuts down.

    As for the new 'circus', I can only hope I don't find it as terrifying.
