Meet George

80-year-old lobster from local restaurant heading back to the ocean

You can't make this stuff up! Sarah and I are cracking up. Poor lobster. I hope he knows how to find his own food and can still see!  Imagine kicking out an old man from the only home he has known and saying - there, go ahead, you know how to take care of yourself, go be free! 

The NYC eatery is sure getting great FREE advertising out of George's plight. This story is all over the internet. By the way Dad, and other family members who lurk around here, the old man lobster will make a pit stop in Portsmouth, NH to "acclimate" to his new environment with a crustacean expert. I hope the "expert" isn't someone from the Icehouse or Newicks Lobster House and "rolls" George (I am killing myself here) before he is released into the wild waters off the coast of Maine. Top tip George, steer clear of the free food on offer on the ocean floor.

That is too funny! Hope "George" makes it to Portsmouth! Although, he's really too old to eat. He'd be a tough one.
