Rush Limbaugh, the radio talk show host, heard about this and offered two thousand dollars for Spike and offered to eat him. Now Rush Limbaugh probably didn't realize that even lobstermen who love eating lobster would protect Spike and not eat it. Because lobstermen protect the big old lobsters—those are the ones that repopulate the lobster stock.

Mary Tyler Moore continued her crusade and joined up with PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, to protest lobster eating. They have a little mascot [and motto], which says, "Being boiled hurts." Unfortunately, their mascot is red, which suggests it's already been boiled. But that's a minor detail.

Something I designed for a political race a couple of years ago - I erased the name/district info.

I never heard how this story ended. Whatever happened to the lobster?
