WHY?


WHY isn't this guy screaming?

WHY do people continue to participate in this event year after year?

WHY did my brother feel compelled to send me this photo?

WHY did I feel similarly compelled to share it with you?


WHY???

Hey, at least it's not baseball, which OBVIOUSLY no one is interested in!

Yikes. What an insane thing to do. As bad as that injury looks -- it could have been worse for him. All I can say is that I really don't understand this sort of thrill seeking.

Um...can we talk about baseball again?

Ew . . . ditto what Angie said.

Lori! I gasped and covered my eyes when I saw that picture! Ellen is laughing at me and the picture. I can't stand stabbing or cutting stuff. My hands are sweating and I feel a bit weak now.

I need to go recover.

I think they started this bull run before TV and ultimate sports became popular, they were bored I guess.

Okay, this picture has been up since Thursday night. Haven't we suffered enough for our lack of opening day line-up interest?

How long, O Lori, will I call for a new post, and you will not hear? I cry out to you, "Violence!" yet you do not write a new entry.

Well actually, I left this for ya'll before I went on Spring Break!

I am in sunny CA at this moment, but will be hopping a plane for STL in a couple hours. I should be back blogging by Wed or Thurs, so you'll have to endure it a bit longer! :-)

Next time, Angie, you may just want to pretend like you care about baseball!

My husband just walked in and saw the photo - he had the same reaction as you, April..."Gasp! You're sick, honey...you're just sick!"
