Default Cheap lobster

No need to own a lobster boat...the fisherman are bringing truckloads of
lobster to numerous streetcorners to sell directly to the public. They are
protesting the $3.00-3.25 per pound rate being paid by the local buyers. My
son just called from work... he bought 5 lobsters off a truck near his work.
We live it up tonight.

Try shipping them somewhere. Can't find the packaging and dry ice is
only available in 200 lb blocks around here. Add the increase in
shipping charges because they are live....

Unbelievable.

machines.

Don't try to figure it out. Advanced math might give you a headache, dummy.
