Iven B's story and the theme of this thread remind me of a story.....It seems this fellow is visiting Madrid, Spain and has gone to a restaurant. As he peruses the menu he sees a waiter delivering a large plate of what looks like two meatballs with potatoes and veggies. He tells the waiter he would like what that gentleman just got. The waiter explains that was a special dish, only available during the bullfighting season. Those were the testicles of the bull which had just been freshly slain in the ring, and sucha meal is usually reserved in advance, to be prepeared for the diner on the day of the bullfight. Understanding the explanation of the local custom the man then orders the 'special dish' for the following week. On the given day he arrives at the restaurant and is led to his table. The waiter bring his meal on a covered plate and sets it before him. Upon removing the cover he sees his mashed potatoes and veggies, but instead of the two magnificent mounds of meat he saw on the other fellows plate he finds two shriveled up, dry looking wads of pale flesh! He demands to know from the witer 'What is this, it is nothing like what I saw last week!!' The waiter calmly explains that what he saw last week were the testicles of the loser of that weeks fight, 'But Senor, you must understand, not always does the bull lose!' `
