Bulls are       really expensive to        own. Like [$10,000.00] and more per bull. Doesn't the owner know not to put       them together because they fight especially around females. One of the bulls       sights something way out in the pasture and they all take off after it. I wake       up at that moment.        > Sandy$              Hey Sandy... I edited whatever you wrote as a price per bull because what was       written made little sense to me. Perhaps it was a misunderstanding, but if       you'd care to acknowledge the suggested edit, or correct me, feel free. I       have no idea what modern        day bulls go for, but back when my sister's father-in-law raised prize       (polled) Herefords, I *think* they were around $10K apiece.              Funny (but TRUE) anecdote: when my (eldest) sister married her man, the       ceremony was held in the "back yard" of his parents' home (which beyond the       relatively short back yard was a beautiful white rail fence, beyond which was       a field around the main        barn.)       So while the preacher was performing the ceremony, one of the prize bulls       decided to do what bulls do best with the cows in the field, and all this took       place just a short distance behind the groom's side of the center focus of the       ceremony. Whether the        father-in-law put those two up to it for "good luck" or not is another       question. Still, hers is the ONLY "first marriage" out of us 5 siblings to       have actually held intact with both spouses still alive. (My middle sister's       husband passed some time ago.         My older brother is on his 3rd wife, and my youngest sister died during her       second marriage. I've been lawfully divorced twice, yet technically never       married / still single! Funny story... for another time....)              It is possible that the bulls each represent potential "suitors" in your       life. One (the Brahman) is the "main guy" in whatever relationship(s) you may       have had, while the 4 monotone guys were more like "beta males" to the "alpha       male."              Whatever they all took off after, it was likely bovine related in some way.        Bulls have been linked to (false or Egyptian) "God" images for millennia. The       cow is thus related to the female goddess iconography.              Still, I'm more interested in what a "Brahman" bull means to *you,* such as       "how did you recognize it as a Brahman bull?"              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
