Yeah you know i'm not the first person to proclaim this, I usually leave it up to them wacky liberals on this board.
But today I proclaim that the world is doomd when something like this happens
I mean what kind of world do we live in when a lobster is stuck in a zoo. Let alone a 22lb lobster. If I knew there was a 22lb lobster in san diego, I would turn to a life of crime and steel that lobster and find the biggest pot of water i could find and have me the biggest lobster tail ever.
But no this crazy world be damned thought something like this should be in a zoo. And what do we get a dead lobster. And no lobster dinner.
Heh. That was in our local paper last week. That actually happens a lot to the big grand daddy lobsters. Usually they wind up in an aquarium somewhere. The Boston Aquarium has like a 60 pound blue lobster. I drool everytime I see it.
The article I read quoted lobster going for $13 a pound?!?! WTF is that all about. We pay $7 tops over here in NH!
I saw a lobster once while night diving that had to be at least 2' long. My dive buddy pokes me, points at it, then starts rubbing his stomach and nodding. It was pretty funny, but maybe you had to be there.
I've heard from several sources that the bigger, older lobsters are no different in taste or texture than the normal age and size ones. Just more of 'em.
Yeah. It's when they are caught that determines flavor and texture, if I understand correctly. I prefer them during molting season. Soft shells tend to be more tender and sweet, though they yield less meat per lobster... I buy 2.
Now i think racing stripes are cool, very few cars I think can pull them off though. They have to be you know race cars first of all and have to have that coolness factor that racing stripes can give.
So I'm driving on a beautfiul california day, no clouds 68 degrees perfect driving weather. And what do I see in front of me, a ford tauraus, now i dont usually gauk at other cars people gotta drive whatever they can get ahold of. But this tauraus had @#$% racing stripes on it.
WHY GOD WOULD YOU GIVE SOMEONE THE IDEA THAT RACING STRIPES ON A FORD TAURUS IS OK!?
Well, on a Taurus SHO, Maybe. But anything else, I'd say not. (Wish they still made those...)
Mind you this is coming from someone who put 250k miles on one, and is at 80k on a second one. Great cars, but not sports cars.
Still not as bad as the Chevy Astro Van I see around town with Stripes, a Spoiler, Ground effects, Low profile tires and Spinners. Thats just an unholy combination of crap to put on an old and busted minivan.
I don't mean to top you out on this, deuce, but you've been lucky:
I've seen wooden spoilers on crappy old compact cars... THREE DIFFERENT TIMES (twice in Austin, once here around Dallas), I've seen cars painted with house paint (just yesterday on a delivery run), and can't count how many times I've seen racing stripes on POS cars. Most notably, I saw racing stripes recently on an 80's model Ford Festiva just like one my friend used to have. For those unfamiliar, these are blocky and about as compact as compact cars get and might have a whopping 80 or 85 horsepower engine.
Granted, I live in Texas, and 90% of these incidents were likely immigrants from Mexico.
The other really obnoxious thing? Seeing cars and trucks with the axles extended so that the wheels stick out really far on both sides. I really want to see these wreck and see the wheels fly off.
Well I do live in little mexico here in concord. I've seen all those things except the wooden spoiler, which would be hilarious and you gotta find your camera and take a shot of that for me. I do enjoy the 1000 dollar rims on a junker cadalic. I mean c'mon you have the money, at least invest 800 in the rims and 200 in a paint job, it doesnt have to be the best paint job, but one that makes the colors uniform would help.
Was he bigger than other lobsters around him? I swear to god everything looks huuuge while diving. Me and some buddies were diving off the oregon coast last winter for crabs, we ended up getting 15 or so. They looked huge under water but most ended up being pretty damn small. But seeing three guys in scuba gear encircling one lone crab and having the crab get away is one of the funniest things I have still ever seen. It was chaos.
