But yesterday in Cadiz, Spain, seven bulls cast for the film "Knight & Day," starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz, broke free and slightly injured two people.

Picador. Any dor.

Cruise and Diaz were not on set yesterday, and if they were, the bulls, who are merely supporting players, surely would have known to stay away from the talent. The stars are scheduled to arrive in Cadiz next weekend for shooting.

Now, we guess, they're merely shooting the bull(s).

Actually, shooting has been suspended until further notice as the local government realizes that they're on the horns of a dilemma - and were almost gored by said horns.

Two unidentified women (perhaps only identifiable by their new piercings) were slightly injured by the bulls as they ran through streets to a nearby beach. It was not immediately clear if the women had anything to do with the film.

Director Jose Luis Escolar told reporters that he doesn't know how the bulls escaped.

Dude, they wanted to olé on the sand.

There is a free lunch

Varga restaurant (at the corner of 10th and Spruce streets) is now offering a "Speed Lunch," guaranteeing diners a sandwich or salad with homemade soup for $9.00 - and they'll be out in 30 minutes.

Menu items include a Roasted Pork Loin Sandwich with broccoli rabe and sharp provolone; a Roasted Portobella Sandwich with roasted red peppers, arugula, warm mozzarella, and basil; and a Chicken Caesar Salad with polenta croutons.

Tattle has lunches for two (with one drink per person) for two lucky winners. Simply e-mail tattlecontest@phillynews.com by tomorrow at 5 p.m. with your name, address and phone number and write: "I want a quick lunch with Varga's girls."

Two winners will be picked at random.

(On Dec. 15, the 2010 "Varga Girl" calendar will debut in the restaurant. Photographer Christopher Gabello shot pics of 12 local women and modeled them [with the help of Smak Parlour Boutique and Ettore Salon] to look like the pin-ups of legendary artist Alberto Vargas.)

Wild horses to be dragged away

Sheryl Crow has asked President Obama (who, fortunately, has nothing else on his plate at the moment) and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar to scrap a proposed roundup of 2,500 wild mustangs in northern Nevada.

"With one voice we are insisting that our government stop managing these beautiful and important animals to extinction," Crow said in a statement released by the Cloud Foundation, a Colorado Springs, Colo.-based horse-advocacy group.

Crow, who had previously adopted a baby boy, has now also adopted a mustang. She opposes Salazar's plan to move thousands of the horses to preserves in the Midwest and East to protect horse herds and the rangelands that support them.

"It's time for all of us to speak up for our wild horses and burros so we do not lose these living legends and inspiring symbols of our freedom in America," she said.
