Thanks for posting this. My husband decided a few weeks ago that people have only been drinking milk for like 500 years and he's been telling people that non-stop. I tried to set him straight, but I had no evidence. Until now....
I lost count of the wedding party... over 14? How did they find so many friends willing to ham it up? My wedding party wouldn't have gone for it, even if I'd been brave enough.
But it made me cry, just like every good wedding procession.
"By sunrise, most of the crabs will have vanished." Oh, that's so not true.
A lot of them get flipped onto their backs (all of the piling up of the orgy and whatnot) and if you look at the things you can see that there's no way for them to right themselves. So come morning, the Delaware beaches are COVERED with dead and dying horseshoe crabs. Many shorebirds feast on them, but after a day or so in the summer sun the crabs start to really stink.
Visit a landfill sometime and check out where all of your disposable things go when you throw them "away."
