Bull

07.05.04 (12:25 pm) [edit]

Tomorrow is the Start of San Fermín, and all over Spain people will be doing the “bull run”. The most famous run is in [url=http://www.whatsonwhen.com/vi...]Pamplona[/url] (see video). I think originally it was the bull fighters who ran with the bulls, but now it’s mostly tourists. I hate this week. Every evening we’re given a running total of the deaths on the news. I will NEVER understand why anybody would want to run through slippery cobbled streets being chased by terrified bulls. Nope, never.

Maybe if I were a heifer I might like that but since I am a human, I have to agree with you. What makes people think that is fun?

It has to be about the danger -- the heart pounding, blood rushing, idiotic "I'm going to jump out of a plane and not open the parachute for a while" kind of danger. It's the type of danger only people without brains would enjoy . . .

Yes, it does seem that the running of the bulls has become like a "Spring Break" destination / thing to do.

You pulled my thoughts out word for word on this subject. I have uttered the exact sentiment every time this crosses my path. I see why aWindo speaks so highly of you. :)

High praise indeed, on both counts. Thanks.
