My First Job

I grew up in Phoenix, Arizona and lived across the street from the fairgrounds. I went to all the traditional circuses, monster truck shows, motorcycle daredevils, freak shows and legitimate theaters that came to town. My first job was at the fairgrounds doing odd chores. I'd also fetch soft drinks and cigarettes for the Lobster Boy, the Penguin Boy, the Frog Boy. I was doing that for awhile and then learned to do the human blockhead and how to be a motorcycle daredevil. But I had a little accident when I attempted to jump 27 cows. 

I must have landed on some spent cud. I went a bit wobbly, cleared the cows but still managed to crash. 
I hurt my back so that's why when I speak to you today I have the posture of a jumbo shrimp.
