John Herriott, do you have your atlas. We have been through this before, but we will go slower this time.

We went through this in January on Buckles blog. Now listen this time. Above in Wendell Huber, you first commented on him January 8, 2008 when you said:

johnny said... These Casselly elephants listed I believe are the same ones that my wife saw and vidiod a few short years ago on a visit to MC festival. We have the video and it shows the elephants quite unrully in the ring. Throwing dirt-shavings, flopping ears and trying to get off tubs, etc. A Saint Bernard dog attempts to jump from back to back and elephants keep moving and shaking. Finally one trys to bugaboo out the back door.
I nnote they are doing Roman Riding now and can assume that that is one thing African elephants can do is run around and wave a handkerchief.

I responded because I wasn't sure at the time:
Wade G. Burck said... I think "Johnny" is mistaken about the 2 elephant act's being the same. Anybody else know anything? If not, it took some skill to make that crap with the dog, look like the Casselly act of today, and kudo's to them.

Anonymous cleared it up for both of us:

Just to clarify, 2 African elephants and dog s WENDEL HUBER. 4 African elephants and plenty of good acts RENE CASSELLY. I see Wade is in good form maybee get off the internet and train some more tigers. Thanks Buckles, i hope Mr Burk never looses his internet connection close to you hes the best on the web.

Now I thought that cleared it up for you John, but today you said this, "but can assure you that if I d9id not do it I sure as hell know who did. ONce again case closed." Heres how it goes, John.
The lady below is Alexis Casselly. The easiest way to tell them apart is Wendell Huber above, is smiling, and Ms. Casselly is sultry pouting. That's how I tell them apart, but you might have a different way. Now here is where it gets sticky, so listen up. Mr. Huber is from Switzerland, and Ms. Casselly is from Belgium.
The animals below are the Casselly's "running around handkerchief waving Africans", and their horses that Mary Lu has to ride the leader, and the extra person is in the ring with Alexis while she jump ropes. Look John, a horse shitting in the ring. That's something I have never seen before, have you? We sure wouldn't have that in an American horse act, right? Are you with me so far?
Below is Brian Casartelli. See the "r" and the "i" at the end. That's the tip. He is from Italy. He was the one with the horses that were doing the weave you didn't like. You need to tell him John Herrriot, that if he put harness on those horses, with check reins, he wouldn't need as many people in the ring helping him keep them from obviously running away. He apparently wanted to so something different from what he did the year before(Isn't that stupid) with all the streamers and what not, and now he has ruined a perfectly good liberty act. Right John, isn't that what you wanted to say?
