A plead and the weather

Wow, I think I need one chord of Al Gore for the fire place. or is that disrespectful who has made multi-millions on junk science and gotten half a Nobel prize that has been proven unproved.  
Maybe too strong. But when you awake to you wife asking you to open the front door because the sleep has sealed it shut in what is like the ninth or tenth record ice storm for the area you get a little punchy.  We set up the trapeze in 70 degree weather yesterday to stat practice and rehearsals.....today it was frozen and not a single thing moved on it.  UGH
Wanted to fish today wut it ever got out of the 30s.
So  besides a little food shopping we spent most the day watching old movies on video. that was pretty much for the day.
Jim is building a new website and I am working on booking but the economy is killing our markt. I understand the corporate market is doing OK from colleagues but the fair and festival market is suffering a bit and the family owned theme parks area getting killed.

Our family has been all about seeing and experiencing America that is why we ave put out pleas to help us do that so I do it again tonight:
We are a strange lot. Last week I half jokingly asked for paypal donations for the unusual heating situation that happened to us (see our blog). The point was we are not a non profit and we thrive on bringing our show to small towns.  many can't bring us out due to taxes, lack of sponsors being able to sponsor due to govt, and other gov't related stuff. It hasn't changed. We don't have golden spoons in our mouths and we are no longer tied to a sponsor. (Anti Monkey Nutt Powder is being beat to death bu the ACA and can't do sponsorship anymore. Also the amusement parks we have worked with (the mom and pop ones) are: in red ink or B:'constantly being regulated or sued. So all pride aside yes we could use your donation so we can bring this last little family circus-inspired family variety show to these folks, to keep us on the road, to fight the weather, and to help those we meet along the way. Pyapal whatever you can....even a dime. Victor@victorkent.com is how you address it too. Thanks and God bless. We will put your donation to good use. We aren't aren't wealthy nor aim to be. We are a talented family that want's to show our kids the county. To show them what we are blessed with. To make it from point A to point B and then share with all those we meet. Thanks and Blessings.

If you don't know how go to Paypal.com.  Create an account or do it as a guest. Authorise victor@victorkent.com as the recipient and then dontate $1miilion dollars, more or less is fine,,,,but more is better.

We had the choice years ago  to go the route that pays more, the corporate, the theater, etc. But after doing a few small town events we realized that the day of old time quality shows visiting small towns is gone. And we like them best. But with gas as high as it is ans insurance as high as it is, and regulations as High as they are, and surprises like break downs and weather are super higher than they were before we had to make the choice....dump the small town or ask for help. We are not non profit but may end up that way if we have to. We just want to be like the old circus and vaudeville shows of yesteryor.......so if you want to help thank you. If not God bless anywy.

Hopefully tomorrow the weather will be nice fo rehearsals.
