Lobster Waiting for the Pot

Maine Lobster waiting for the pot. Lobsters may live for 30 years or more, at least, if they don't get eaten. This pretty husky lobster was in the fish tank at a restaurant along the bay. I have to admit, I go back and forth between feeling sorry for the poor little guys and thinking they're a heck of a good meal. I suppose they're both valid.

Tonight, however, it was eggplant with mozzarella, mushrooms and tomato sauce plus a teensy bit of ham. One more final to go! I have to admit, I was pretty happy to remove the class recording out of the car's CD player after the first final. I can listen to the radio again, at least until class starts up again. One and half more years of law school. It's fascinating, fun, stimulating and a whole heck of a lot of work. Not much sleep for a year and a half more but I suppose I'll miss it all once it's done.

Food Fight

These two lobsters give new definition to the term "food fight!" For some reason, they both wanted top spot on the rock. The big lobster was perched on the top of the rock and was absolutely not budging. The little lobster would climb up the front of the rock and try to poke at the bigger lobster. In turn, the big lobster would rear up and pounce on the little lobster with its front legs. It was one of the odder things I've seen and it gathered quite an audience. Obviously, neither one of them was worried about being spotted and ending up on the dinner table.

There was another possibility. They might have been boy lobster and girl lobster. Hmmm...or maybe boy lobster and boy lobster? Do you suppose?
