if you mess with the bull...


A bull injured forty people on Wednesday in Spain when it jumped into the stands to attack the crowd at a bullring in the northern town of Tafella.
Raw video of the event posted online on Thursday showed the bull leaping over barriers and landing in the packed stands of the arena.
The bull was killed after it was subdued with the help of a former bullfighter in the crowd. Most of the injuries were cuts and bruises, but one man was gored in the back, another suffered crushed vertebrae and a 10-year-old boy remained in intensive care on Thursday at a hospital in the regional capital of Pamplona, the Spanish newspaper El PaĆ­s reported. The boy was injured when the 1,000-pound bull fell on him as it rampaged through the stands.
The Associated Press explained that the bull’s escape occurred Wednesday at the Tafalla arena in the northern region of Navarra, “during an event attended by about 3,500 spectators, in which mostly young people try to get a bull to charge at them so they can dodge it.” (via)

Congratulations to Butler for winning...


...our hearts. In the whitest of NCAA Championships since Kentucky let beeple play, Butler fell to Duke by 2 points last night. Butler is a 2pz favorite for being ceeyute bull-underdogs like Georgia, but not as douchey. Butler coach Brad Stevens is a 2pz favorite for being young like Lane Kiffin, but not as douchey. Also, he graduated from DePauw University.

The loss ended a nation's best 25-game win streak. Luckily, Butler did not go down like West Virginia, nor did they get mounted by Bob Huggins. Their goofy tennis champ star missed a last second shot that was really close, unlike another last second shot earlier in the tourney that we Vol fans would like to forget. It is likely that Butler will be remembered as a great team and get to keep it in their record books, because they are not coached by John Calipari. Even though they fell short, they were impressive in front of a hometown crowd of 70,000 people (great sight lines, I'm sure). What we can be sure of is that Peyton's orange awesomeness rubbed off on Butler up there in Indianapolis.

And that Bruce Pearl will be sticking around Tennessee for a while. [relevant]

When the game ended and Duke was celebrating on the court, a nurse's assistant walked into to my room to take my vitals, and said "football?" To which I replied "No." and thought Five months, sweetie, only five months.

i know what you're thinking...

...being laid off must be like a dream come true. no alarm clocks waking you up in the morning, just relaxing sleep every day until you arise from your slumber naturally and peacefully, ready to take on another day of doing anything you want, without the burden of paychecks or the security of health insurance. well, you're wrong.

this is what goes on below my window every morning starting from 8am (sometimes they get antsy and jump in around 7.45am) until i give up on any chance of ever being happy again. what you might not be able to tell from this photo is that the bulldozer's favorite thing to do is slam its shovel down on those metal plates, and its second favorite thing is to push them around on the asphalt. you might also be interested to know that the bus in the bottom of the picture is what they call a 'kneeling bus'. that means it lowers itself down to the curb edge like a noble steed, emitting a sound that can only be likened to a moose giving birth to a chainsaw. two chainsaws. chainsaw twins. it stops by about every 10 minutes or so.

i dont know what i did to deserve this, but it helps to share.
