Was surfing the web this morning, and while looking for any new sites I might catch before the TMF does D ), I stumbled upon this reference.
"A bizarre torture practised in Medieval France called for the victim to be tied to a bench and their feet bathed in salt water. A goat was brought to the poor unfortunate prisoner and allowed to lick their feet. The rough tongue against the sensitive soles with the fear of being bitten, soon brought a confession."
Couple things caught my attention about this.
1. I would venture a bet that many people on this site would not consider themselves "poor" or "unfortunate" to be the prisoner in that situation.
2. Would have it been so hard for them to mention that it might tickle just a bit? That really seems like the torture to me, not that the prisoner might be bitten at some point.
Any thoughts?
