First thought: How do lobsters occupy themselves for ninety-six years?

Second thought: Butter and lemon.

Just think how many lobster dinners that specimen has contributed to society. So happy to hear it will be sent to live out it's days in an aquarium rather than on a dinner plate.

I think that meat would be a little tough to eat, just saying.

Great story, but I wish the lobster fisherman would have just put him back into the ocean to live out its life in nature, not an aquarium. Oh well, better than being boiled up in a pot.

I would imagine the stress of being caught and moved around so much would take a toll on any old animal.
