A bar I used to frequent had a sign in the men’s room that read: “Please don’t drop toothpicks into the urinal - our crabs can pole vault”.

“So it would be good with clarified butter.”

You’d need a lot of them, only the size of a quarter.

Coolz. Goes by the name of Patty?

Tiny fossils discovered in both Colombia and the United States reveal...

Hmmm.

Callichimaera perplexa

Oh, for crying out loud.

One of those dropped out of the tree into the potato salad several years back in Kentucky.

We called it Crab Salad.

Mighty tasty.

Morphed. Caused by the Russians, oh wait maybe global warming.
Then again President Trump probably caused it.

Just writing NYT headlines.
