I love love love this week's installment of DeFlocked. The ending hits on an, umm, interesting bit of Ringling trivia, that, along with the inherent animal abuse involved, pretty much flies in the face of the whole "family fun" image the circus tries to portray. Check it: Ringling employees have been arrested or convicted—either while with the circus or prior to their employment—for the following: possession of child porn, sexual battery, bank robbery, murder, felony drug possession, burglary, assault and battery, and disorderly intoxication. Souvenir program or cotton candy, anyone?

Poor elephants. I don't understand why they have to wait until 2012 to be free. The fact that they'll be free in 5 years doesn't make them any less abused right now.

Right on, Jeff. Thanks very much.
