Flaming-horned bull fatally gores man in Spain
MADRID (AP) — A flaming-horned bull trampled and fatally gored a man early Saturday during a festival in eastern Spain, an official said.It's sad that someone died, but I really have a hard time working up the giveashit-o-meter here. This wasn't some dude randomly walking down the street who got mistaken for someone else in a drive-by goring; this is someone participating in an extreme event where a half-ton animal is taunted into a full-blown stampede. It's a lot like someone falling off a ledge in the Crisco Annual Greased Rock Climbing Challenge.
Large balls of flaming wax are traditionally affixed to the beasts' heads before they are let loose to rampage through squares and narrow streets in such festivals.
No word on whether the Brady Coalition to End Stampede Violence has released a statement yet...
That is all.

Everybody say it with me. "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes."
Drive-by goring. Haw! Good one!
When they outlaw flaming wax horned stampeding bulls then only outlaws will have...
um...
Help me out here.
From his skit on his trip to Europe with his son, Ron White has some choice words on the running of the bulls: "We didn't go see it, because we couldn't figure out...
...why anyone would."
Which pretty much explains that sort of thing from my view, too.

Jay, you owe me a new monitor and keyboard...
