My memory segues to 1972, driving to the University of Main campus, picking up two live lobsters from the pound, and putting one on the cars console and having its claw clamp onto the radio nob.

That lobster hillariously turned the radio on and off, and changed stations for us all through that 50 mile ride. Then we cooked him for supper.

That Lobster should have known better. Never mess with the car radio. It tends to upset the driver lol.

ROFL!!!

Thanks for the laugh :)

We used to spend summers in Point Judith RI, getting our
lobsters off the boats when they came in for the night for
$20 for 5.. we’d turn them loose in the living room without
their bands and hunt them down one at a time for their “bath”.

Growing up in CT a morning fm personality used to play this
great intro on his morning show - don’t know where it came from:

“EVERYBODY GET OUT OF HERE, THERE’S A LOBSTER LOOSE!”

I wonder what our neighbors thought, hearing that coming from our cottage.
