I went to a university in our area and did some research and according to Prof Phillip Marks of UC Merced, the fact is that during the Viking days like I said to you, when the Vikings were in pubs eating and telling stories and laughing they would take hold of the horns of their helmets and lift them when laughing so they wouldn't fall off into their platter.<BR/><BR/>He also told me that when the Viking men wanted company at the pub they would take their helmets by the horns and lay them on the table to indicate to the barmaids that they wished for female company. Hence the word "horny" originated.<BR/><BR/>And, one last fact, when they were in battle and reached for the helmet horns of their enemy they would lead them around until the enemy surrendered. The term "taking the bull by the horns" came about.<BR/><BR/>Well my nose is now growing out of proportion to my body and looks sorta weird. We had a great time being with you for the couple weeks around AZ. Wish you well and maybe we will cross again in some Viking pub.<BR/><BR/>Jim and Sharon Jacobs<BR/>mrandmrs4732@aol.commrandmrs4732https://www.blogger.com/profile/09495013205124271044noreply@blogger.com
