[Sca-cooks] OP: shrimps

[jenne at fiedlerfamily.net]

Ok, why _are_ large shrimps (prawns for non-US people) served with their
stupid little tails still on? And is there a polite way to remove them? I
am an absolute pig about shrimp and hate to cut the shrimp off with my
knife before the tail joint (which is often a messy process anyway), but I
suspect that that's the way Miss Manners says to do it.
