OH, Yeah!!

I'm an old *Shrimper* frum way back! (At least 5 years or so. )

I'd starved myself for the annual Fire Dept Christmas Dinner ...
tummy was *rumblin* for hours ...

Snowed like it was the Last Blizard befoe the End ...
Dinner was LATE arriving.

And the ONLY thing in the Station was the early arriving Shrimp Plates!
< Deep Breath > and LOTS of "Cocktail Sauce" helped 'em go down;
a beer chaser kept 'em there ...

Only took me about a half a dozen to notice everyone ELSE had lil TAILS left onna plate ...
My Plate had no TAILS ... was I doing sumpin wrong?

I suddenly discovered the Lil Dead Phish didn't taste nearly so vile iffin ya didn't eat the TAILS!
Trial & Error (and some careful observing) taught me where the dividing line was between
the edible part and the Tail ... another Beer and I was ready to go for another plateful.

So YES, I can do "Shrimp" if hungry enough or have a need to be "polite" ...
I just thought I'd sharpen my Shrimpin Skills on Sunday.
(Thank Heaven for KetchUp! I was gonna try BBQ Sauce, too; but ran outa room.)
