- Sarah October 13, 2008I have a small metal box of mementos of women I’ve known and been with along the way in my travels on the road. Pathetic I know. Sentimental old me. I haven’t been through the stuff in that box in a long time. Rings, necklaces, pictures………. Tonight I was looking in the closet for something... […]kevin
- My Interview On Ballycast February 16, 2008I’d like to thank Wayne Keyser from Ballycast for interviewing me for his podcast. You can catch the podcast here, as well as many others on “Show” people and “Side Show” people. My life and thoughts as a Carny.kevin
- The End May 13, 2007It’s that time of year again, a week ago it was, I’m always on the greyhound the first week of May. Last season I was long gone by this time. It feels strange not going, I think I’ll be fine though, my heart does ache some. I live near a highway in this tiny town... […]kevin
- My Prediction April 25, 2007Carnies are born, they can’t be made. The Carnival Industry has always been made up of a certain type of person. That personality is a transient by nature, not materialistic, existing for the moment. These people do it for the love of it, they need to keep moving, dreaming, living just for this day, tomorrow...

Normally I don’t work in the off season, but considering this off... […]kevin
- On With Life February 16, 2007Ok, I’m finally past the “Feeling sorry for myself” mode. Self pity is comfortable for awhile, then it’s like “Who gives a fuck?”, time to get up and move on, life is so much more fun that way. My life and thoughts as a Carny.kevin
- End of an Era December 24, 2006I find it ironic that my Carny life should end just as the curtain lowers on the Carny Culture of today, it’s last dying exhale. The hard living, road happy people of yesterday are few and far between now, replaced with clean cut, drug free, South Africans or others the shows can import for cheap.... […]kevin
- A Place In The Sun November 23, 2006I’ve always had an incredible long term memory. Aunts and Uncles have commented on it, amazed that I could recall a certain event or place, considering I was 3 years old at the time. In the early winter of 1969 I was a couple of months from my fourth birthday. My brother and I shared... […]kevin
- Shauna (Do you wanna?) November 1, 2006I remember when Shauna was beautiful, back in the days when she turned every mans head. You wouldn’t know it looking at her now though, the young beautiful Shauna replaced with the old worn out hag of a Shauna. When I was a kid I used to follow her around, I had a crush on... […]kevin
