Maybe they pinched him first!

[Daffynition]

A non-ping ... author did all the “work”.

Sandy Berger?

[mirkwood]

I guess he’s in a pinch now.

[mirkwood]

He’d better clam up.

[mirkwood]

Maybe he just had a bad case of the crabs.

Police: Man caught red-handed pinching 91 lobsters

Pervert.

"The lobsters were worth an about $1,200, and that's a lot of clams."

Something wrong here. Even at $20 per lobster, no man can carry 60 lobsters.

I am on the Maine coast. Last year some young entrepreneurs decided to make some lobster money the easy way. Just row into a lobster pound at night ( a pound is a pond that they keep their catch ) and steal all you want. It worked..for a while. What these geniuses did not think of is this is a small community. We know everybody. Sure enough, a sternman and his friend were caught. ( a sternman is the guy who hauls the traps, sorts, reloads and launches ).

It was a misunderstanding.

He works at the White House and was just picking up the main course for the State Dinner guests....

Stolen lobster-Maxine Waters hasn’t had that since after the LA “uprising” in 1992....

This reminded me of a story I'd read about back in January. A guy was returning a lobster to a grocery store in Albany, NY. He had told the clerks that the lobster was bad.

"Store workers were about to allow Tessier to trade the $10.99 lobster for a bag of king crab legs when they discovered the lobster was all shell. Tessier had eaten it and put the shell parts back together, deputies said."

He was confronted and ran from the store with the bag of crab legs. Police showed up later on his doorstep, but they found that the guy had already eaten the bag of crab legs too.

Here's the link to the original story:

Lobster tale too much to swallow

[JRandomFreeper]

Nobody stuffs live lobsters inside a jacket or pants.

Actually....... that turns out to not be the case. There was beer involved and it was someone else's pants. No warrants were issued, the lobster was not injured.

Actually, lobsters are green until they are cooked.

Man arrested for lobster scam

An Amsterdam man returned an $11 lobster to a Price Chopper store, claiming it was bad, and was being allowed to exchange it for a $27 bag of crab legs when store managers discovered he had eaten the lobster and pieced the shell back together, according to a report by my colleague Bob Gardinier. He fled when confronted, and when authorities caught up with him at home, he had already eaten the crab legs.
