->> Not sure if this was covered in a thread earlier, but check this GOREy image of bullfighting gone wrong. It's not terribly graphic, but for some of you out there, it might not sit well if it's the first thing you see in the morning. Apparently the guy, famous in Spain, is expected to make a full recovery. The link to the photos and a short article is below...

->> "After two operations, it appears leading surgeon Maximo Garcia Pedros has saved Aparicio's life. The bull, however, was quickly killed by other matadors."

What??? Seriously? Man, if the bull wins (and win he did), he should be given a nice, plush stretch of land on the Spanish countryside to peacefully graze away the rest of his days.

->> What's that saying? You mess with the bull, you get the horns?

I'm no animal rights activist, but I have no sympathy for people who think they can tangle with large animals like this one-on-one. You're just begging to be put in the hospital.
