Fact of the Day: Barnum and Congress
P.T. Barnum did more than create his own circus, he also ran for Congress. Ironically he lost the general election against his own 3rd cousin William Henry Barnum.
PT Barnum and Hugh Jackman! Hugh would have laughed at this. I think I read that Hugh and family are back home here in Australia presently house hunting for no doubt a million $$ plus plus mansion overlooking Sydney Harbour or up on the Sydney Northern beaches area. Colin
