I have mixed feelings about bullfighting. I love the pageantry and tradition of the whole thing but at the same time feel bad for the animals. Great picture though.
According to Boston Legal, the incidence of kids being injured is not that high. Much higher riding a bike without a helmet. Yes, the show is a work of fiction, but they do a lot of fact checking on those things. Writers are always doing a lot of research on legal shows. I suspect the figures were accurate. Which is not saying I support it, but it's cultural and I am not going to knock someone else's culture. :)
Thanks for commenting Chris! Happy thanksgiving to you and your lovely family...will you celebrate there in England? Bring in all the Brits you know and share Turkey with them? :)
I appreciate this photo because of how it speaks of culture and tradition. This is an amazing planet we're all spinning around on.... together... and images like this add substance to the diversity.
That's very cool! I remember watching videos of matadors in Spanish class...way back in the day! LOL! None of them were that young though, I never knew they started so young.
Michelito (aged 9) waved a cloak at his first calf of the night. Under Mexican rules, mini-matadors like Michelito face one-year-olds.
