CBC News is reporting that http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/ringling-b ... -1.3936686]The Greatest Show On Earth, the Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey circus, is shutting down after their final show in May. Apparently, people don't want to watch a circus without elephants (I guess Cirque de Soleil isn't a circus any more, then), and PETA won't stop suing them if they include elephants.
As that story asks, where are we supposed to run away to now?
(And what is "The Second-Greatest Show On Earth", anyway?)

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
