What a beautiful couple! You are both lucky, and not just for having a good looking mate!

Sorry about your bro. American (New England) lobster are at their best in the summer.

I’ve missed your stories, T5!

How’s your friendly spirit downstairs? How are your crazy neighbors?

I think that’s backwards anyway. It’s the months with an R that you avoid. (In others words, eat crabs in the summer.)

Why would they serve lobster if it was poisonous?

People are poisoned from them every year during those months. The restaurants have learned to flash freeze them during the other months.

A little note here about that, my brother lost his spleen which could not clean out the poison prior to his marriage. He was flown to Mexico City where there is a hospital, but the staff on the Medivac knocked him out for his pain. He begged not to be knocked out. That killed him. We got his body after it had been cremated in Mexico City.

When Cyber and I were in PV two years ago, Cyber brought me into the older part of the city to the oldest Catholic Church, and I asked the Priest in Spanglish to bless my brother. He did, and he blessed me, also.

I had been to PV a few times. Never really liked it.

King Crab is also flash frozen in Alaska. I don’t like the little crabs. I want a big hunka loving crab.

I worked at the Crab Cooker in Newport Beach, CA, while I was going through school. We never had fresh lobsters during those months, and it was written in the menu.

These folks will only ship lobsters that are caught from mid October to April.

Reminds me of a story......I was working late nights/over nights at a grocery store sometime after my second went to college.....one night I saw a waitress from a local restaurant my family frequented and opened a check out line for her and checked her out........we chatted and all the night crews must have been watching. They could not wait to start asking me just WHO she was.....seems they made a habit of sitting in the break room lights out at a certain hour when she got out of work and watched her and her beau get it on in the parking lot. She was married.....btw.

I about died when I knew that......didn’t take me long to discover just which one of her co-workers it was......

I never told her either.......a few months later the guys told me it must be over.

Do you want me to send you a few buckets of sun?

This is the first week of over 110. So I shouldn’t complain. But my big cactus is wilting. Will have to cut it this year. I’m waiting for the danged monsoon that probably won’t happen this year.

Global warming and cooling. Now Gore the Bore never told us that.
