lol! i'm a blue collar kinds guy, i got a hot hamburg (but there it has 2 patties), upsized the fries to include mozzarella cheese and gravy, and a slab of homemade pecan pie. my mother of course got the lobster burger with potato salad, and a cup of seafood chowder with a biscuit. lobster season just opened here a month ago, fishers are selling them out of their trucks for $6/pound, cheaper than most meats these days.

That price is from an alternate universe.  Even at Billingsgate Fish Market we'd pay £10 ($19 Canadian) for a relatively small one.

Nevermind as I'll have plenty of Spiny lobster so savour while in St Lucia!! 
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

you're not dead yet, goldie.  There's still lobsters to be had.

I recommend them.

good dipped in A) melted butter B) lemon juice C) vinegar or best of all, D) melted butter with a squeeze of lemon in it. if anyone ever wants to know how to cook their own live lobsters (taste the best by far) let me know, a fisher was giving out sheets with instructions a few years ago and i kept mine, works flawlessly.

Trying desperately to stay awake.  I am losing the battle fast, though.

I've just got home from an evening out with OC's daughter. 

Man! the stories she had about her mum/mom...

I always just threw them in a pot of boiling water.  They don't take long to cook, and they are delicious.  It's been a good while since I've had them.  There seem to be more lobsters on the East Coast.

And dipping in butter is good, although they're so rich, it seems like overkill.

When my isp was down and told us that they would continue to be down for the night, I took the time to do maintenance on the router, which I have honestly never done. I usually just slap a network security key and silly network name on there, and then do the old tech support reset whenever it goes down.

well, I realized that this tablet runs a newer version of android, and with a bit of prioritization, I might be able to get back over here. And so it is.

Try as I might, I can't make sense of that.

First "and" should have been "isn't".  I'm really, really tired.  Really.

I have a 10am start so I finally have a chance to check in here.  Mind you, it's 9.30 so I'd better get ready to go.
