What a paragraph taken out of context. :-) What was that other thread, 
something about Britney Spears?

The fresh corn around Pennsic can be quite good. Although definitely 
non-period, I like to have some while I'm up there. And there usually
seems to be plenty of beer around Pennsic.

I've had crab on a vacation in Florida years and years ago. I remember
it very much being like my disecting class in high school. But I'd be
interested in trying it again. Or do you just eat the claws and not
dig through all the various bits and pieces in the body? Pieces is
pieces? I don't think so.
