Poor Bubba the lobster. Twas a good lobster, he went before his time, but now he's in a better place.I'd like to say a few words about Bubba. You know, I met Bubba while waiting for the 11 o'clock express at 30th Street Station. It was a cold day, and he asked if he could borrow the paper I was reading. We started talking on the train and found we had a lot in common. I was a college student, he was a lobster. I liked Paul Newman movies, and he was a lobster. And we both loved poker.We kept in contact for awhile, sometimes meeting up and going to local bars to shoot the breeze and pick up women. Man, was he a hit with the ladies. It's not everyday that a woman meets a 22 lb. lobster with a doctorate in psycology! After we got out of the coast guard, we moved near eachother so our kids could grow up playing with eachother.I'll never forget the good times we had: the drag racing in Jersey, volleyball matches at the beach, road trips to Canada. He was a great friend, and an even better person. I'll miss you buddy. Like we always used to say: "Zip it up, and zip it out."Anyone else have any fond memories of Bubba that they would like to share?

Oh man, I'm SOOOO sick of that (dead) thing. That's been the top news story here all week!! But, I guess that's good, cause that means nothing REAL bad is going on.

I heard Bubba was murdered to cover up some other goings on in the area.

Just think of the feast someone is having. I would kill to be able to chow down on a 22lb. lobster. Reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Homer raises a pet lobster named Pinchy, and at the end of the show he's balling his eyes out as he's eating him. Good stuff

Well thank you BB. I will always stay true to the Simpsons theme. I can usually work in a Simpson reference in just about any situation I'm in. That's what happens when your favorite show is on for 10 plus years adn you know every episode by heart.One of my favorites:MARGE: Homer have you been drinking?HOMER: Noooooooo! Okay ten beers.

duff man i think instead of saying "in this one simpsons episode" you should just start saying, "this one time when homer was eating a lobster" i think that would add to the stories quite a bit; give them that bite of realism.
