Cow takes on the Devil (http://www.cyclingnews.com/news.php?id=news/2007/jul07/jul16news2)

The Tour de France can be dangerous, and not just for the riders, as the "Tour Devil", Didi Senf of Germany, found out in the Alps. Senf, who appears on the mountain stages in his devil's costume to urge the riders on, apparently found a cow who doesn't approve of his act.

The cow attacked him, and tore a sleeve of his costume, the German agency "sid" has reported.

I guess it's no great surprise -- given how bulls behave when you flash red in front of them (even though they're colorblind).

I swear that anyone who spends any time around cows / bulls will quickly lose any qualms about eating them. They can be most unpleasant.

It was less about my costume and more about the fact that I ate part of her brother for dinner the other night.
