Planning for Spain

The Fiesta and the bullrun occur every year from July 6th through July 14th. The "chupinazo" (opening ceremonies) is on July 6th at 12 noon. The running of the bulls takes place every morning at 8am from July 7th through July 14th.
From here.
cuyaz: YOu know what will be in spain while we are there
Bruin7089: What?
cuyaz: Running of the bulls
cuyaz: I am not sure I would run with the bulls though
Bruin7089: Why not?
cuyaz: Don't want to die
Bruin7089: It's like 7 people out of a few hundred who die
Bruin7089: those are good odds
cuyaz: True
Bruin7089: YOu don't even have to get close to the bulls
Bruin7089: We should do it.
Bruin7089: With me running in front of you.
cuyaz: Okay, I will give it some thought
cuyaz: It is one of those things you have to do in your life
Bruin7089: you run, you hop off to the side and watch
Bruin7089: not that hard
cuyaz: Or you run, a bull gores you and you have two places to shit out of now
Bruin7089: I think it's overrated unless you happen to be one of the few who are gored.
Bruin7089: Three places
cuyaz: This is true
Bruin7089: Less time on the john.
cuyaz: More time in the hospital
Bruin7089: and your health insurance that you signed up for kicks in
cuyaz: I wonder if my insurance I just bought will over me
Bruin7089: It's probably in the fine print/boilerplate
