No Brain, No Pain

Who would have thought that I would learn something from Myspace? Well, today it happened. An actual factual lesson in a Myspace bulletin.

Lobsters do not scream in pain when you put them in boiling water. It's true that they sometimes make a screaming sound when you cook them, but the sound is actually caused from air that was trapped inside the poor little guys body, escaping as it heats up. Besides, its impossible to scream without a throat, vocal cords or lungs. And to feel pain you need a brain, and like certain high ranking US government officials, lobsters are scarce on grey matter.

Thanks to Justin-Thyme Personal Chefs in Orlando Florida for posting that informative bulletin today.
I could use a new personal chef. Whadda ya say Justin? Interested in moving to the wine country? You'd be great here.
