| "The cannonball artist ( I'm not sure what the actual name for this particular angle of showbiz is called ) is strictly of the highest calibre.
He is none other than Hugo Zachini- The Great Zachini himself. He leaves quite an impression on me. Hugo is a very friendly-yet-shy well-adjusted man.
His demeanor seems serene enough that one wonders about the therapeutic benefits of being repeatedly blasted into the air. He grumbles a bit about the trouble he had getting his big silver cannon across the border.
Something about bringing weapons of mass destruction into the country. He is a father and son act as well.
His son is required to stuff his father down the barrel of the cannon three times a day, then ignite the fuse and send his parent hurtling across the stadium.
What child would turn down a job like that?" |
