Wow, the Grateful Dead suck at Hearts.

Show we eat his brain now, or save it for later?

 

i could go for some brain right now

 

When I play hearts I either play against Lord of the Rings characters.... or usually, I play against:

Yellow Robot
Super Robot
and
Lobster Man

 

yeah...me too...its a ...ummm..small world
hehe

 

lol, that is awesome! Glad to know that I'm not the only one. So which characters do you usually play against?

I usually go against: Saruman, Samwise and Shelob

 

Lobster Man? From Pittsburgh?

 

I don't know, he doesn't really discuss his personal life. Why, is it you?

 

actually i was being scarcastic
sometimes its hard to convey that over the internet
but yeah ...ive never seen lord of the rings

 

No, not me lol. But there was a Lobster man from Pittsburgh. My brother went to Carnegie Mellon for his phd, which if you're not familiar with the school it is essentially a school for as he calls it 'freaks and geeks'. Well this one graduate student flew off the deep end and started dressing up as a lobster. The campus is reasonable close to downtown, but has some woodlands. Right behind the Dean's house in this little valley, he actually built his own little Lobster House and lived in it for over a year before any of the faculty figured it out. So, he would walk around town dressed as a lobster panhandling then go back to his lobster shack.

True Story - the Lobster Man of Pittsburgh

 

Wow, that was a good story Ryan, I enjoyed it. I would love to meet the lobster man of Pittsburg.

Sadly, my lobster man is just a figment of my imagination.

 

Well, I'm sure at one point lobster man was just a figment in this fellow's imagination. Sadly, they evicted him and tore down the lobster house for a new building on campus and he was never heard from again. My guess is the men in the white coats came and took him away.
