this and that and even family ties
Today I tell a lot - and that's why I squint now first in the direction of my English lecturer. Paul, the slanderer has, by the other day when I wrote a long entry in my blog, asked if I as in "verbal diarrhea" suffer. Not me! I have to say always important and essential! And what can I do that I have such eventful life and therefore always much to tell?
(c) Ferdinando Klemenz
Paul is probably just jealous because he was not so beautiful, loved how I (and no, I will publish a picture of him for comparison). Pfff!
So, I'm starting now: Sorry, we have been a few days in Nuremberg, the last city of this year's Tour crown. And whenever I look in the environment, I grin.
(c) Pietro Bento
For we are next to the German Pseudo-Colloseum landed. The thing was built as the "Congress Hall" to the Nazi Party of Mr. Hitler and his associates, but has of course no comparison with the original in Rome. Besides the fact that the Nuremberg thing is half round and the inside has no arena - which copy may already keep up with the original? And as much traveled lion I know the course. Finally, the Colosseum in Rome has played a not minor role in the history of the lions, and I the claims that lions would have eaten it loads of Christians who believe terribly exaggerated and defamatory. We have
lion namely in terms of our prey, a code of honor: We hunt only what has a real chance to escape - so fast four-legged friends like zebras, gazelles, antelope, water buffalo (. okay, only if they falter a bit and not act as a herd Otherwise, they take a fact all). People absolutely do not fit into our scheme of prey. And if you ever read a report from Africa, a lion has sold out to a biped, then the lion was either an already abundant rickety, older copy which in the hunt for four-legged friend had no chance or the person has provoked it, in which he has angered the lion. Normally, but you are safe from us. Also, I just do not think that people taste. What
for me, I would much rather chase times a tasty horse. Apart from the fact that it would be a reasonable challenge - see Janas favorite Jasi is not good enough to eat?
(c) HKM / Maresa Mader
But Jana makes me so never play with Jasim and his buddies. Because they always want to own me but yesterday, with its great venison - cooked especially for me - saved the really bad day, has now won her I meet a request. Jana wants, namely, that I invite you. She thinks like me who likes, even beautiful, elegant horses and would like to know more about them. So cordially invites Jana: can
The meeting You learn not only how Jana and her friend and trainer Anja Beran (which also features a very nice lady with a beautiful voice) is classically trained dressage horses, but also watch how Jana teach their horses the freedom of dressage. So, I would go!
I'm only at the time in Italy. My family and I find the German winter that is a bit unfriendly, even if we could spend it in well-heated quarters in Munich. But what is the winter home to Italian winter sun, blue sky, Italian joy of life and an enthusiastic audience? That is why we travel over the Alps and spend December and January in the country where the lemons grow. And you should also happened to be in Italy: Look for the posters from the Medrano Circus. Because you can meet me then.
Enough of the future plans. You want to know, why I took consolation yesterday venison on a stupid day? Listen to me groan again.
And then I probably need to explain: I am a social lion. I know that you have as the Lion King a certain responsibility to the other lions, and so I'm ready, all that is what my side - my people, my food (as long as there are not just venison or my steaks) and if they ever necessary, even my Tonga-Mobile to share with other lions. But at all lions charity - must please me, do you? Between you and I may as ever grumble grumble a bit and, right? Yesterday it was
namely again as much. The morning dawned yet, as Martin already came with the breakfast. And because I know him so well, I saw it already, that he was quite hectic. Not a good sign.
fact, he has also just so fed so early because he had something in front of Lady Jane had next door to the clinic in Augsburg. The poor girl is no longer the youngest, and like the lion too dependent on us is that when we get older, infested our various maladies. For Jane it was a lens opacity. She did not work properly and would be probably blinded permanently. As far as Martin was, of course, can not come. Ergo my Tonga-Mobile was once again as a medical transporter: After he had fed us, Loads of Jane and rushed her to Augsburg in the animal hospital where she underwent surgery.
I remained poor Tonga: Unbeschmust, not fit and quite bored. For this it was so cold that I had not even great pleasure to play in my outdoor enclosure (and sawn in Nuremberg's has not given! The service here really left to be desired). So I put myself in the car under the heat lamp in my cozy Strohbettchen, slept a bit, operational detail personal care, watched over lunch the secretary who had come with friends and had before my pen a little picnic (chicken breast sandwich - and no, they did not share with me But that's okay, it was only a very small portion..).
Martin, meanwhile, was probably the Jane's paw - and I'm sure that when she awoke from anesthesia, he sat next to her was very nice to her and she has probably also kissed on the nose. And all this while I was waiting for him! He was in fact only very late - the idea was already running - again and then he just brushed me very briefly and apologized because he was in a hurry. I've forgiven him, of course - I am a social lion. And of course I am also glad that Jane after the surgery - she was removing the cloudy lens - to see again is good (. Just read it could not now because she needs to wear glasses). And finally, yes there was venison from Jana. But overall it was still not a good day so I hope that now again a little while normal operation is here, Martin sometimes comes back to sleep late (I do not like it when he is groggy. Then I will invite him always with me to be a game under the heat lamp) and we still have a lot of fun in Nuremberg.

What Size Area Rug Under Pool Table
There are days when I could only run with his head against the post!
(c) Ferdinando Klemenz, 2010
And these are then also when I wish I would have remained a single lion. It could have been so nice: Martin and I, somewhere in the very cozy tête-à-tête, soft music in the background, nice chat, no shouting, no hassle, no Tralala. But what I have instead?
family!
And that's not all: I even have a large family with 20 members. Among them are quite lovely Löw (inn) en, for example, my two girls and Diamond Princess. Or Kenya with her sweet face and coquettish swing of the hips. And Kiarah is sexy - even if they sometimes Martin "Garfield" calls, because they so greedy. I have nothing against it if he were quartered them a little bit with me and I would not bother even guaranteed that they are always hungry. Quite the contrary. Kiarah could all 'eat what I do not like anyway: Grease (igittigittigitt) and liver (brrrr!). Heart over steaks and we would have well maintained and as for the chicken, I would perhaps growl at times. And one would have to be sure that venison is mine and mine alone completely! Sun cute can not be a bride that I share my saddle of venison with her. It's enough that Martin always wants abhaben it.
But I wanted more annoying part of the family and tell them why I'm the days a little sour. Normally, yes my enclosure is constructed so that I get exactly the family was faced and nearly all see. Here in Wertheim's is but exactly where we are lions around a curve and I have the Trio Infernale - Frosty, Junior and Prince Benedict - just opposite and the dear, long day in mind. And that, I can tell you can go to the lion an already nervous! Indeed, it is now quite cold now, what we have lions always result in increased activity. In the summer when the sun beats down from the sky, we usually have no desire to "action". Why should they? If this is indeed a sweat. But if it then cool, we are awake. Somehow, the mix of cozy and warm at night - we're all comfortable bedrooms warmed with red lamps or heated floors, Martin donated to us recently, again soft beds of fragrant, fresh straw - crisp and cold on the day of invigorating.
(c) Claudia May, 2010
Prince Benedict - and believe me, he is not as harmless as this picture looks!
be in this weather really even our older ladies gay and play. But As far as the young men - the exaggeration it really! Hardly in the outdoor enclosure, it's already happening: Prince Benedict acts as Pole Dancer: He jumping on the post high, holding his net; tried to move it or even better to install (no chance, Boy - Martin knows how he set up this thing has so little princes overturn it can not!), he developed is drumrum, it leads to the strangest contortions. And if he does eventually get bored, he goes to the grid, which it currently - because he is very aggressive and the last major battle with his brothers was so hurt right - separate from the other two. There is then only a little bit provocative and through the bars properly hiss and argue. It is up to each other, they shouted, metal rattles, it will hiss - and there I should be able to sleep? No chance.
's is obviously the older ladies who are behind the guys in the pen, like me: After a while she sucks the scramble the beatniks. Kasanga, even though he as a father actually responsible for the infernal trio would always hold out first, but that mother Ruthie tried to call her three urchins to order. But as soon as the car behind the fence that separates them and their sons and even a vigorous "peace now!" gives off, kick off the three-in earnest. For they are clearly in puberty and prove the fact that they then jump into the car and a tube-debate with the poor, troubled Ruthie - as if the three because of not enough would have to listen to their girlfriends! - Begin.
It excels especially junior - and one I have to leave him: The boy is in good voice! Now and then he spits so loud that it even Kasanga is too much and he responds with a paternal word of command. The staff will also be accessible only for a moment.
So I have now and say my opinion - and then usually causes that do three for a while as if they could not dim her mouth. Junior then plays "I sleep a round of" Frosty looks interested in zoo and Prince make in personal care.

Prince Benedict or "I've done nothing yet, I sit peacefully am. In my enclosure and I pluck quite harmless!"
But when I then lay down to sleep, my might, start it again. And so it goes straight to the love long day. I'm always really happy when Martin and the gang at night wegpackt quiet there.
But the few days that we are still in Wertheim, I will survive even completely. And in Nuremberg, I will hopefully be a bit of distance between them. Until then, I'm looking forward to visiting here very much!

Wedding Brochure Wording
On the road again ...
Good morning from somewhere between Wertheim and Worms! We are driving - and I am again found that I like traveling very much. It has something: I'm lying idle in my car, digest my breakfast and I rocked comfortably from place to place. In addition, there is always the full days of travel entertainment: In the morning I can watch as sit and watch my man and his helpers my outdoor enclosure. Then a nap in the car and announced after that I can then watch as the people rebuild. And you know, I love work. I can sit and watch it for hours.
also was great Worms. The audience was great and I've got special applause every night - what's mine, too. The place was beautiful and the best was that we were right on the Rhine. I have not the river seen but smelled and I could dream of swimming again. I have not been allowed, of course. First, the Rhine would be suitable for bathing in Worms not well, on the other it's in spite of a clear blue sky is already quite cold and Martin will not mean that I catch a cold myself. And I blow-dry to dry after a bath, would hold but a bit long now. I have known a lot of hair.
(c) Ferdinando Klemenz, 2010
For this I have discovered a new game in Worms. It was a very generous space and because the weather was so great, have used lots of Worms the opportunity to visit the crown Zoo. Now it was so that we stood at the edge of a little lion. This has gemopst me a little. I do think that we should be in the center. But as was Tsavo, the highest surplus rhino (by the way: The two things to Tsavos nose horns, no snorkel was why he was not, as some visitors on Sunday, mistaken for a hippopotamus!), Which was also surrounded always tight.
I found not good.
(c) Ferdinando Klemenz, 2010
regards And what - I had a long conversation with men Martin, but he does not listen to the ear. He explained to me that I would of course be white lion, and always a favorite have special place in his heart, but big enough to have just room for Tsavo. And that our visitors want to see not just lions. Hmmm. I do not know why they are so wild about rhinos, elephants, horses, camels, wild boar and the zebra, where I and my family are so much nicer and more interesting yet, but bitt'schön - people are just funny sometimes.
After all, you can educate them but. Whenever I had worms in the sense that Tsavo & Co. withdrew too much attention from me, I shouted a round. It worked great! People turned around immediately and as soon as they realized that I am that they came to my Warren run. So I had to look and what they could admire me, as I enjoyed on my favorite board, the last warm rays of the October sun.
(c) Ferdinando Klemenz, 2010
colleague Kasanga was meanwhile also constantly at the cry - but not about the audience's. Its roar was a mixture of longing and protest. Two of the girls are in fact sheaves - and Martin has practiced again "lion family planning à la Lacey": He summarily a lattice wall between the two hot girls and their much hotter, potential lover Kas inserted. Of course, he has said Kas, that we simply do not currently use for brown babies have (which is white terms, would be Martin certainly not averse. But I think in the winter he would take the not so real. wear our women around the 105 days, which would be then that now conceived babies were born in January . As it is too cold for the little ones), but that does not sing, to love songs for the ladies.
(c) Ferdinando Klemenz, 2010
He probably thinks ahead - the next spring is determined and who knows if Martin is not interested then to brown lion children? Kas is certainly a smart boy. He keeps the girls warm.
I, meanwhile, 'm going to take a nap. And when I wake up again, we are in Wertheim and I watch as my enclosure is rebuilt. Let's see how the space is there ...

Creamy Mucus After Ovulation
rests heavy the head that expresses a crown
Shakespeare was a clever man, he was not asked as a lion at his side, but he still said a lot of clever things - such as the lovely phrase, that the one that wears a crown, not under the burden of their responsibility always sleep well. Now I can not complain of insomnia, but the last few weeks were quite exhausting. Since not only the trouble with animal rights activists in Cologne, but also our departure was there - and the crime was ripe!
Actually we are the absolute travel veterans. If we are with the guest in a city through, it usually goes quite quickly pack up the night after the last show our people and their helpers our show equipment - from the central cage of the walkway up to the platforms - on the truck, next morning after feeding are then packed our outdoor enclosure together and loaded and while we keep our digestive sleep in our car, the big to the towing rock hung and ourselves comfortable in the next guest city, where is the hard-working crown-workers and our people quickly rebuild. There sits every move that is practiced a thousand times, there is not even more hectic.
only as far as Cologne's has not executed cut. As the first trucks drove there, that stepped in state power. The police, your friends and helpers gave us a "guest extension" of the more unpleasant kind, although the full crown fleet was only in February in front of our tour start in Munich with the TÜV, although we are in Cologne for 17 days, practically next to a police station had confessed that the uniformed men and women thought that is now, our vehicles - and to have to check not only the force of the lions, but of the whole circus. And after a few months, and bumpy tour of duty places ... let You me put it this way: he who seeks shall find something in any case.
Say: We were the first time established in Cologne. We had to disrupt it a little lion. We slept. But ... So, I am a special lion (yes, I know I've already mentioned a few times. But it's just important in the context) and as such I feel responsible for our people. And of course, was totally annoyed. For it has taken hours.
But really slowing down crown, it takes more than a raid. We finally have it - made in Cologne and in off-Worms to arrive where we had a huge space - with plenty of late. As was then in a hurry - yes, there was then quite hectic - built up, the crown-man once again proved that it accrues in time of crisis to really form. Each grabbed a hand and because of that someone in "I'm responsible and the other the heavy stuff!" would have made. Quite the contrary: Jana himself - not half an hour before the premiere - in chairs in the tent set up, while Martin saw to it that we and Tsavo again everything is fine. And it worked: We had a quarter of an hour late, but our premiere run and the Worms are rewarded with great applause.
but had given them good reason. Although Martin looked on the day whether he will be have used mini-arenas-Ruhepäuschen on Kasanga really ...
Martin and Kas in the middle of the show take a little time.

... We have shown us Supergut. Above all, I have brought me. I have to comfort Martin that he had so much Tralala and bustle, that looked very nice and I snuggled up to him. He is only human and as such needs to be a lot of tenderness, especially when he had to annoy Sun It is more important for him to show to get that I as his Lion King him appreciate and sympathize with him. And I know my Martin. Cuddling, healthy, happy lion can make up with him all the trouble again and after a gig with us, he always feels better.
