Wamba the Fool, and Jockomo the clown tells Americans how to run their lives.

We hire you to dance! Dance, boy Dance!

[SamAdams76]

In medieval days, the entertainers were the "court jesters" and they sat at the servants table during banquets at the King's court. Their purpose was to entertain and "play the fool" and never taken seriously otherwise.

That's one tradition from the Middle Ages that I'd like to bring back.
