Guess why Rolls-Royce uses bull hides, not cow hides, for leather seats?

And why do they only use hides from bulls raised in cold, mountainous climates?

Haha - actually, gene, you're right on the money. They use bulls to avoid the stretch marks that cows get when they're pregnant. And they raise their bulls in the cold, where mosquitos don't live - so that their hides stay blemish free.

Give it a few years - soon their cows will be wearing lotion and chap stick!

Thanks for the kind words :)

Mr. Scarab29,

Your wife may want to clarify that this product is for bovines, and she is not insulting anyone's wife.  :o
