Back to Blood Fever

 

Cowbell

 

The hollow rectangular branches of the belliviscius tree that when dried and thumped vigorously with a thin but solid stick, produce a dull tuneless sound part way between the ringing of a bell and the honking of a goose. Many tavern brawls have been started when a drunk customer spontaneously yells "I've got the Blood Fever and the only cure is cowbell!" whereupon an accomplice produces one of the dried branches and begins beating it sporadically but with feeling.

 

Quite why the drunkard and his accomplice believe this to be funny is currently unknown, since the correct way to cure a genuine case of Blood Fever is to rub dried cowbell all over the body (or cowbell paste if one is female and attractive, or all over a blood-fever-stricken attractive female friend if one is also an attractive female; mutual cowbell paste application is also acceptable and often carefully observed).
