I think we all dreamed of running away to the circus at one point in our lives.  To a five year old the lifestyle looks incredible, sweets, animals, acrobats and clowns…what more could there be?  How about piranhas, snakes and slavery?  That’s what these two Bulgarian sisters aged 19 and 16 were forced to contend with.  All their circus dreams turned to nightmares as they were held in slave style conditions sleeping in trailers previously occupied by animals.  Being paid 100 euros a week to swim with flesh eating piranhas and having snakes thrown at them…causing injury!  Sound attractive now?  They have now been rescued from this circus in Southern Italy and I’m sure they are happy for their freedom.  I just wonder if anyone is going to believe their resume details?

I just read a news article where a man drove his car into two joggers.  I would be horrified if I hit a dog let alone two people.  This moron not only didn’t stop but he continued home and parked his car with a person stuck in his windscreen.  Now how the hell does that happen?  Sure he was drunk, I think that’s a given but even under the influence of alcohol you think he would notice the gaping whole in his windscreen.  I notice the little smears on my windscreen that were once butterflies and bugs…..poor little fellows. How on earth can a man sized smear, for lack of better words, go undetected?  I hope he goes to jail for a long long time.  Let’s see if he can ignore the big guy named Bubba creeping into his cell every night.
