Comments on: The Circus Is a Terrible, Wonderful Thing http://crookedtimber.org/2009/05/29/the-circus-is-a-terrible-wonderful-thing/ Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made Mon, 13 Feb 2012 10:56:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Martin Wisse http://crookedtimber.org/2009/05/29/the-circus-is-a-terrible-wonderful-thing/comment-page-1/#comment-277509 Martin Wisse Tue, 02 Jun 2009 08:49:38 +0000 http://crookedtimber.org/?p=11299#comment-277509 Why I'm not reading it? 1) It's on flickr, which I find too annoying to deal with (pictures are too small a size by default, site's often unresponsive, etc.) 2) Don't like the artwork as featured here (too twee) 3) Where's the payoff? Why I’m not reading it?

1) It’s on flickr, which I find too annoying to deal with (pictures are too small a size by default, site’s often unresponsive, etc.)
2) Don’t like the artwork as featured here (too twee)
3) Where’s the payoff?

Which proves I can enjoy the small treasures illustrating the article while being blissfully unaware of the author's intent. The images are straight from from my own childhood as a circus performer in the early 1960's in the furthest antipodean islands of New Zealand - where circus advertising hadn't changed in decades...

Still fun. Also, alas, just went to click on "comics" to find your old post about the breakfast cereal land webcomic which I didn't bookmark and should have, only to realize CT doesn't group posts by topic or maintain lists of post topics anymore. Guess someone broke the water pitcher for good. I admit to having been ever-so-slightly disappointed that “Monkey and Whale” was not the title of the righthand comic book. Still fun.
