Recently, I've faced my mortality calmly, but NOBODY faces death with more courage than a lobster..

[RandomThoughts]

1. I have heard that before.

The shell fish comment, some do see things that way. As you paint with your comments, you do that all the time.

It is an extremist view, taking a social law used in a specific time, probably from things like red tide, and trying to apply it equally across all time, when it had a temporal social context, in my view.


People that believe that 'rules' can not change, like shellfish rules, are self contradictory. Some laws do not change, but some are for specific times based on social conditions. Although people have to decide what group each law is part of.

Find any part in any doctrine where a rule changed, and that invalidates any concept of all laws being the same across all time.

Although I do think those that do something like not eat shellfish as a form of honoring of their beliefs do honor their beliefs if done for that reason. Some follow some laws to get other people to like them or accept them, that would be different in my view.

5. It's not courage. It really is senseless to take a creature from its habitat and boil it alive.

It's barbaric. Not funny.

6. Three tons of lobster perish in Rockland fire

ROCKLAND, Maine — A fire that destroyed 3 tons of lobster in a storage building was caused by an electrical problem, according to Rockland’s fire chief.

It took firefighters about two hours to extinguish the blaze Sunday afternoon at an industrial park warehouse used by a lobster company owned by Linda Bean, granddaughter of L.L. Bean, who has a business called Linda Bean’s Perfect Maine.

Bean told reporters that she lost about 6,300 pounds of lobster and some equipment.

No injuries were reported.

8. LOL! You never fail to amuse MFM!

I always used to get a kick out of the term "Maine Lobster Advisory Committee"... Every time I heard it, I'd picture lobsters in suits 'brainstorming' around a table in some conferance room. LOL, I have a bit of an overactive imagination, I'm often told. :crazy:
