and as a public service announcement, it has been said that Oysters are an aphrodisiac, and I just wanted to say this is completely untrue, the other night I ate 30 of them and only 18 worked!

Well, open up the oyster and see what is in there. It could be like in the movie "Sling Blade" where the man says I don't think you are like most people think you are I believe you are really deep and quiet. Then he says, " What were you thinking a minute ago?". Sling Blades replies, "Oh, I was thinking if you have any more of that potted meat down at the dollar store that I could get?". So some might be deep and others a walking blank. Sara
