And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
No seafood for me but there was a centuries old restaurant in Olde City Philadelphia that had brown construction paper on their long tables; crab mallets and bibs for the crabby people eating them. I tried to find it online, but it looks like it may have closed.
after WWII, my oldest brother re-upped in AF and was assigned to air-sea-rescue in Puerto Rico. On one occasion he participated in recovery of deceased crew of a boat accident. Crabs had first call. After that he swore off crabs and pretty much any other "fruit of the sea".
Looks like a couple of bushels at a Maryland crab house. I can smell the Old Bay.
ReplyDeleteOh, the Chesapeake Bay memories!
DeleteYum!
ReplyDeleteI'm lazy & lacking patience to pick crabs. Make mine crab cakes. Same goes for shucking "⅞osters".
