Gold Star Comment (so far) on Brendan Kiley's article about getting crabs:

I remember one boat trip in the San Juans we took with my stepsons, when they were about 11 and 14. My husband and I wanted some privacy, so we talked the boys into setting our crab pots WAYYYY out from the mooring buoys. They'd take the dinghy and row out to check the pots, which would take them about 45 minutes. We got our happy fun time, the boys got some exercise, and as a side benefit, because no one else was setting their pots out that far, we were getting BIG crabs and a lot of them. For the ONLY time in my life, I actually got tired of crab (I'm kind of an otter about shellfish).

(Is "Geni" short for "Genius"?)

I finally found Emmett Watson's Oyster Bar, which pretty much rules the world (in part due to the exceptionally hot people working and hanging out there).

And Marti Jonjak uncovers the disturbing truth about the etymology of "Serafina."
