BS: Obit: My Lobster Died

From: SINSULL

Though the neighbors may be relieved, I am beside myself. Larry, the 4' blow up lobster who has resided in my maple tree for years (dates back to the first lobster boil) has fallen. Done in by the last thunderstorm. He is now a puddle of orange plastic unfit for human consumption. RIP, old friend.

No, Mary's Larry has done what all lobsters do. He simply molted and bolted to find his way back to the sea and to procreate. As far as him not saying goodbye, you know what happens to lobsters just before they molt. And think about him witnessing so many lobster boils... I don't blame him.

So, SINS, you can at least take solace that Larry's soul lives on.

On the "Red Green Show" out of Canada, one of my favorite characters on the show is Ed Frid, the extremely nervous local animal control officer (if an ant approaches him aggressively, it will send him up the nearest tree!).

One of the recurring features in "The Red Green Show" is when Ed shows a particular animal and then gives information about it. Often, he wimps out, such as when he tried to palm off a fox terrier as a genuine wild fox.

On one show, he tries to palm off a crayfish as a lobster. Red says something to the effect that, "You don't know much about lobsters, I take it."

"Well," Ed responds testily, "I don't get many calls from people with lobsters up their chimneys, if that's what you mean. Or calls about a rabid lobster running around killing the sheep!"

Long long time ago I can still remember
how that lobster used to make me smile

I could make that Lobster dance
and maybe he'd be happy for a while
But January made him shiver
with all the snow that Maine delivers
2 foot on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I knew that I would take a slide
If I tried to bring him back inside
but something touched me deep inside
the day the Lobster died

So bye bye Mr Lobster Guy
went to get myself a bevvy
but the cool box was dry
and If you were real Lobster
you'd be in the stir fry
and that would be a reason to die
that would be a reason to die

Many years ago when I lived at home my mum was asked to look after a neighbours fish whilst they were on their hols. In one tank was a small freshwater lobster, the pride and joy of my mum's friend's hubby which he'd had for years and loved dearly. Off they went and when it came to the first feeding I went with mum to lend and hand and have a pike at this famous lobster. We'd been given full feeding instructions and spent a while dangling bits of prawn in front of said lobster with long tweezers but . . . nothing. Eventually we decided to wake it up and gave it a prod with the tweezers - nothing. Further tweezer probing ensued and disaster! Our worst fears were realised - the lobster was dead, ceased to be and we still had two weeks left to go before they came home.

Needless to say, on their return I left it mum to go and break the news that his beloved lobster had keffed it within hours of them going away. Apparently, the chap was quite sad (although my suggestion the news might have been easier to swallow if we'd boiled the lobster, shelled it and stuck it in a buttie made of nice, crusty bread with a squirt of lemon and some marie-rose sauce was poo-pooed immediately).

I know, its not much of a rhyme, or poem....but I could not see the end of this thread without say'in a few words about Larry.


I'll tell you tales
Of lobster tails,
agalmatophilia, vinyl, and PVC

Inspired by spawn
To resemble a prawn
Larry's a true beauty of sea

A novelty gift
Inflated to lift
Our spirits, like a "dama de viaje"

Blow things deflate
As a daily fate
But, Larry stayed blown up in our tree

With an air of contempt
Larry was content
Perched over our lives as a friend

But, one day Larry heard
A passerby's words
What the hell is that lobster thing for?

A question he asked
As his tree hours passed
What use do I serve being here?

He pined for the sea
To find family
Who could answer this question of life

He planned the escape
A big break to make
When the winds could loosen his ties

On a June breezy night
Larry took flight
Free, escaping the tree as the plan

Short freedom was found
For, a fall to the ground
Deflated Larry's seams beyond repair

Not knowing, nor told
How lives will unfold
Nor, how it's all scripted to end

We march to a fate
Whether natural or fake
With questions of why we are here

Now, friend, look in the tree
There's no Larry to see
But, it does not mean that he's not there

RIP

Ah Ed. I didn't realize how cruel it was to keep him in the tree. I thought he was happy. Maybe I should bury him at sea. Or will some poor unsuspecting dolphin choke to death on him? Cremation may be frowned upon by the town - burning rubber. Maybe i will just fold him away in a large box and bury him. Just think what archeologists will make of that three thousand years from now - he will still be in tact you know.

"Sugarfoot, did you refrigearate the mini-lobster for his family to wake...or did you flush him?"

Actually, we left him there for two weeks in case we'd made some sort of lobster misdiagnosis and he was moulting or meditating or something, although in retrospect this probably had more to do with our squeamishness when it came to handling an expired crustacean rather than a genuine concern. I don't know how things went when his dad got back, but I'm willing to bet he was a little ripe by the time he was fished out, although we did keep the pump on in the tank.

You don't need a body for a wake. But why not load his body and all his possessions into a boat and send it out to sea afire, like the Vikings and folks used to do? Or bury him under a mound surrounded by sardines and other things to help him in the afterlife (a pump would be nice)?

Bat Goddess to the rescue! Last Saturday I adopted a NEW inflatable lobster and I'm keeping it safely tucked into the original box until I next see you (or can otherwise transport it to your abode). It will need to me inflated, of course, upon arrival. And I understand it has handles near its "ears" so it can be ridden by youngsters in your backyard pool. (The invisible one.)
