Happy as a clam

[roadrunnertwice]

So I was thinking about Scylla and Charybdis today at work, and it occurred to me: going by her feeding habits, Charybdis is probably just a real big bivalve.

Picture that. A ship-eating geoduck bigger than Manhattan Island, just buried there under the straits and happily syphoning away, no fear in the world aside from Zeus' own trowel and clambucket.

How much butter would that even take, exactly?

I dunno, but I'm bringing a knife and a fork.

As your lawyer, I advise you to leave the napkins at home and just wear a shirt you don't have strong feelings for.

You know, I am so happy that I have friends that muse about shit like this. It makes me feel so much less alone. :)

I was methodically reading through a bunch of your tags (uh... don't ask, I guess...) and wound up here, laughing breathlessly for a few minutes, alone in my apartment.

Thanks, Nick.
